	NBD X2: jaydee mark king and fender geddy leeIainRoberts replied to marcus bell's topic in Bass Guitars Some good eyes for the jaydees! Possibly a silly question but is it possible to get the age from the serial number? I love my jaydee and it would be great to know a bit of its history:-)

	£150 Jazz body Bass with DiMarzio MM replacement Humbucker!IainRoberts replied to IainRoberts's topic in Basses For Sale Thanks Jon, appreciate the info. You've got a good eye! Yep it is a ply body with a really nice stained finish to it. I'm part tempted to hold on to it but the ibanez is being played mostly these days so it really should find a new home. I guess I've had it so long it kind of feels like a part of me :-( Whoever does buy it I want update photos from gigs! :-)

	[b]PRICE DROP!!! £150[/b] Reluctant to sell but deserves to be played! The clear out begins, now that there is a mini me in the world just 6 months old I'm going to be moving on some of my gear so that it gets the play it deserves! Here is a Japanese Jazz bass in a gorgeous deep red stain. It was my work horse since 1996! (until the Ibanez musician came along!) I do not know the make but would date it somewhere from the 1980s, possibly Matsumoko, if anybody can shed some light on it please do Fitted with a DiMarzio humbucker (which required a larger hole behind the scratchplate, not pretty but it fits and sounds great!) Going for £150 or nearest offer, any questions please do ask. Cheers

	Aaw! My old Musicman Sabre....IainRoberts replied to Acebassmusic's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful Just did a double take on that one, I had my eye on that bass about 18months ago, it was in Nicks guitars, still has the listing online: [url="http://www.nicksguitars.com/basses.htm"]http://www.nicksguitars.com/basses.htm[/url] and the photos at: [url="http://imageevent.com/nicksguitars/musicmansabrebassgordoncustomnecks"]http://imageevent.com/nicksguitars/musicmansabrebassgordoncustomnecks[/url] which are the same ones used in the ebay add. Always makes me a little nervous seeing old photos used, just in case it's a dodgy listing...hopefully not the case here!

	So I have a project on the go, restoring a nice old Hagstrom. Not sure when I'm going to find the time but the first thing to look at is a crack in the neck at the headstock. It's not too big but should I repair it at the sacrifice of the lacquer OR save the original neck as is and fit a custom carbon neck instead to get the old beauty up and running?

	FS Carbon Precision Bass (P-Bass)IainRoberts replied to [email protected]'s topic in Basses For Sale Welcome, Nice looking bass. You obviously have good skills with laying up carbon fibre, I work with carbon fibre also, mostly on bobsleds, so I know it is tricky to get a good finish. Just a tip though, for 1500euros you can get a lot of amazing basses so you really need to use top end components. I made a similar carbon bass for a friend and for 500euros. Good luck with the full carbon build. Make a custom mould, use a pre-preg and autoclave, not wet-lay. Then with some top end hardware that would be more like the 1500 price tag Have fun, Iain
