  1. interesting! .. but what's the bass in photo #10 - it's not blue. And photo #11 (neckplate?) ?
  2. Nice bass/concept .... I like the p/up config. as it's similar to my Urge (1) Stu Hamm (although the EQ / controls are radicaly different) :-
  3. weren't the T J S basses of this period fitted with the 'proper' Fender Jazz headstock shape ??? :- https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-1986-Tokai-Jazz-Sound-Bass-Guitar-Made-in-Japan-/232547161203?
  4. [size=5][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]A Mexican made Fender Urge Bass in very good condition. Very nice metallic blue (“Ocean Turquoise*) paintwork which is virtually unmarked. Medium 32 inch scale with a nice dark slab rosewood board. 2 x Jazz pickups, active electronics with dual concentric controls for volume, treble, bass and blend. designed and endorsed by bassist Stu Hamm:-[/font][/size] [size=5][font=Arial, sans-serif]Background: The original [b]Fender Urge Bass[/b] was designed in conjunction with John Page and was the first Artist Signature bass offered by Fender, and featured a sleekly downsized alder body; two Custom Noiseless Jazz Bass pickups; a Custom Precision Bass pickup; dual-band EQ; 18v power supply (only on Urge II) and a Lace Sensor on first Urge; a panning Jazz pickup selector control; asymmetrical oval neck profile and a neck with a sculpted heel; string-through gold-plated bridge; two stacked black control knobs; black Gotoh tuners, and a medium-scale, 32" graphite-reinforced maple neck featuring a 2-octave rosewood fingerboard with 24 medium-jumbo frets. This bass also had a rotary switch offering four modes: standby (off), active mid-boost, active no-boost, and passive (urge). The pearloid pickguard was of a unique shape with a smaller footprint than many other Fender basses. Colours offered were Lake Placid Blue, Montego Black, Sherwood Green Metallic, and Burgundy Mist. The original Urge was first introduced in 1993 and was discontinued in 1999. [/font][/size] [size=5][font=Arial, sans-serif]There was also a short-lived [b]Urge Standard[/b] which was made in Mexico between 1993 and 1999, featuring a medium-scale 32" neck, two standard Jazz Bass pickups, a poplar body, and active circuitry with dual concentric volume and tone for each pickup. As of 2008, the Urge II came with a Hipshot Drop D-tuner and three new finishes including Ocean Turquoise* [/font][/size] [size=5][font=Arial, sans-serif]Incl. Courier (UK only) c/w small(er)/fitted gig-bag[/font][/size]

  11. [quote name='Spoombung' timestamp='1507532606' post='3386020'] What is the nut dimension and the string spacing? [/quote]according to my (old/original) specs the bass weighs 4.5lbs, has a 28" scale* (25?..22.5?), 1.5" nut, 10/19mm (nut/bridge) string spacing (although the ETS-'Marleaux' bridge spacing is adjustable). From the Marleaux site the dimensions are slightly different:- Scale: 570 mm / 22.44" Nut: 40 mm / 1.57" 12. fret: 50 mm / 1.97" 24. fret: 55 mm / 2.17" Bridge: 54 mm (2.13") / 18 mm (0.71") each string * not sure how I could have this so wrong (?) .. unless it's the overall length of the bass (?) - added a photo to demo size :-
  12. [quote name='CameronJ' timestamp='1507458021' post='3385511'] Very nice! What's the tuning? I'm guessing ADGC? [/quote] No, it's EADG (+8ve)
  13. [quote name='hiram.k.hackenbacker' timestamp='1506351756' post='3378125'] Does it have a headstock? There doesn't appear to be any pictures that show the nut end. [/quote] check my link to the Luthier site - headstock appears to be common to all models.

  17. [quote name='Hanry' timestamp='1502896388' post='3354250'] Hullo, Do you have some recordings of the different sounds? It's hard to imagine what the modifications have resulted in (but they do sound promising!) Thanks! Hanry [/quote] Sorry, no.

  19. [quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1495568464' post='3304972'] What are the dimensions to this - I may have genuine TE cover to fit. [/quote] I could be interested in this - mine is c. 58 x 48 x 34 cm.
