This is a nice example of a Korean built Squier Jazz from the 90s it was probably built in the Samick factory as it has an 'S' prefix serial number and the slightly smaller metal control plate. Its in very good condition with a few minor dings here and there and the usual small laquer cracks near the cutaways at the neck but these are cosmetic. It has faded and where stickers have been removed there are slightly darker areas again cosmetic. Frets are good and it sounds like a Jazz bass, easy action and balance currently strung with new flats. I bought this recently as a stand in whilst my Fender was being set up but its never been used and surplus to requirements. 150 GBP posted - in UK only or 135 picked up. iPhone pics I'm afraid but they give the right idea.....

[quote name='CliveT' post='1299586' date='Jul 11 2011, 08:24 AM']Sorry but that's not an early model. The early ones had carpet covering and didn't have the large green 12 (or 15 if it had the 15 inch speaker).[/quote] Oh right, I assumed the tolex ones were earlier editions similar to the AH line of combos, still could be abargain!

[quote name='Count Bassy' post='1297917' date='Jul 9 2011, 01:34 AM']That was with a Fender Urge Mk1 (32" Scale) - Running the bass in active mode but with bass and treble at the mid 'Flat' positions and the main switch in the 'Unscooped' position. Mainly using the Jazz pickups, about 2/3 Bridge, 1/3 neck. But flipping to the 'P' pickup on occasions.[/quote] Here's one on ebay, an early one too - nothing to do with me but they will deliver so got to be worth a punt!

Hi I have owned my TE AH130 for years and it was my main amp in the studio until just over a year ago when it developed a massive buzz/hum noise. I took it in for repair at my local music shop anyway after nearly a year I picked it up today and paid 144 quid for the work, got home plugged it in and ...... it's still buzzing! In all fairness to the shop they send gear out for repairs so not an issue with them but has anybody out there had similar problems with Trace Gear of this era (its tolex covered so GP7SM series)? The buzz is so intrusive its like having a giant fridge being amplified by a PA and yes I have tried other leads, cabs, outlets, I A-B tested it with my very ancient Carlsbro amp and my Markbass and they had none of this. I have emailed the shop but wondered if anyone knew of a solution? So far this has been a very expensive waste of time! Cheers

Is it a 'Lichtenbacker' or a 'Richtenstein'?

Its one of my lovely old Gibson Grabbers, this one is a 70s one with maple neck. The scratchplate has been replaced as the original was warped although I have kept the slider assembly. The bass was refinished black rather roughly but looks fine given the bass is well gigged! There are dings a plenty but no cracks or anything nasty and the truss rod is fine. Plays and sounds great, through body strung, nice weight. Gone! [attachment=84301:IMGP2153.JPG] [attachment=84300:IMGP2154.JPG]

[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!

I bought an Ashdown 4x6 Mini from Martin, great cab, great bloke and the owner of the best looking Status bass I have ever seen! Cheers, Ash

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] [attachment=84180:IMGP2132.JPG]
