  1. Been away for a little while so thought I would reintroduce myself as have just got bass to add to my guitar collection. I quiet missed having a bass about the house and fancied another VM jazz but they seem quite pricey compared with my original now. So I took advance of one of the cheap Vintage V4 Reissues that seem to be floating about and I must say I have been impressed at the quality so far. I would normally class my self as a guitarist but it's a friendly forum so I hope I will be forgiven. Cheers for now G.
  2. Might be a bit left field but have you thought about Vyse amps by Dr Barry Vyse. You can get a handwired champ type amp with a valve rectifier for a little over £200 in his garage sale. I got one a while ago with a Jensen PR8 speaker, to make the most of the valve goodness, It might still be a bit loud for home use when the good lady is watching telly, but a bit of a bargain I say.
  3. I would think this would have the same beautiful build, finish and slinky neck your #42 but may be a tad lighter as its swamp ash (8.6 lbs). But I think the bigger difference might be the Nordstrand Big Single Pickups and 18 Volt Preamp. Plenty of bite and snarl like a Jazz on steriods
  4. Finally gone, blimey I think this must be a record for the longest deposit to pickup. My bass is still available but no amp to test it on now.
  5. I have my eye on another guitar (don't tell the boss) and having missed out on 2 it might be time to put the money down. So this is reduced to £850 plus shipping (if required).
  6. I see Nino is approaching the 200 mark with his basses not fender but not exactly a flash in the pan If you want to join this exclusive club drop me a line.
  7. Thanks Richard I think they need to be seen in the flesh and played to be appreciated. Once you have had one in your hand I think any one would realise the quality. So any trial would be welcomed for those not in the know.
  8. Still not gone if there is any interest, and I have not pulled the trigger on the trade yet as I really don't need another guitar do I ?
