  1. [quote name='mybass' post='1293331' date='Jul 5 2011, 01:05 PM']The full pic of the bass is 'wobbly' so can you tell us about the bridge please? Looks like a quick string release type.[/quote]

    Sorry didn't realise the pic I'd uploaded was flakey. The bridge is the original 50s/60s type with knurled saddles and flat head screw height adjusters so no - not a quick release type this is all as it should be for the era with the exception of the Jazz pickup. I will try and swap for a better picture!

  2. Looking to move this on it's a Squier JV P bass from around 1984, it plays and sounds great and appears original with the exception of the control knobs/extra pot, a couple of replaced screws and a Seymour Duncan Basslines Jazz pickup at the bridge. The neck is lovely with a nice amber vintage patina to the laquer. There are dings and scuffs but nothing nasty, the electrics are fine and there is play on the trussrod. The neckplate is stamped with the JV serial. It has a lovely tobacco sunburst and off white scratchplate, no case included. JV prices are going crazy for totally original basses so I guess with the extra pickup this isn't a collector's piece but a proper player's bass, gone please remove![attachment=84179:IMGP2139.JPG]

[url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1980s-Shaftsbury-Bass-Guitar-/270774126098?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item3f0b654612"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1980s-Shaftsbury-Bas...=item3f0b654612[/url][/quote]

    A quick disappearance eh? Didn't think Shaftesbury's ever did a bolt on, probably an Aria or a ply Hondo - although the Rickenwaffe were in so quick I didn't get to see it!

  4. [quote name='Gust0o' post='1285497' date='Jun 28 2011, 06:14 PM']Ash, what counts as an "interesting trade"?[/quote]
    Quality basses, analog synths, was after a Markbass extension cab but that's not really needed now, don't need any amps. 6 string basses? Certainly no cheapies! This bass is worth a lot in terms of rarity, craftsmanship and playability but I guess my price indicates its 'niche' appeal (current JB Rick types will set you back 1400 pounds!). :)

  5. [quote name='wayne58' post='1278786' date='Jun 22 2011, 05:37 PM']Really nice light 1977 Fender Precision In very good condition, sounds and plays great with no issues.
    All original to the best of my knowledge, I have not dismantled to verify all component dates but inspection is welcome before purchase.
    Weighs 8lbs 4 oz on my digital scales, the dark line on the back of the body is in the wood grain.
    I will include a generic non Fender case as I don't have the original, and I'm afraid it has the chrome bridge cover only.
    I am looking for £1350 collection preferred from Preston lancs, or I could deliver within reason.
    Sorry guys, but the only trades acceptable would be on pre CBS Fender basses with cash adjustment from me[/quote]

    Ohno...couldn't tempt you for a part trade on my 84' JV Squier maple neck 57 P bass??? Oh well.....
