  1. I have moved on my two MIM Fenders, initially to make way for a US Standard Jazz with maple neck (what I have always dreamt of). I then could not pass up a Squier Classic Vibe Precision Bass in the new Fiesta Red for the silly sum of £190. So, here is my main gigging bass, a 2006 US Std Jazz: ..and the bargain Squier: This has fallen victim to some modding by me. It now sports a more red plate (which I prefer), a set of Wizard pups, new wiring with CTS pots, orange sprague cap switchcraft socket all connected with better quality wire. I have also removed the Hi Mass Squier bridge (for some reason I didnt like it) and installed a standard Fender bridge and cover. It awaits a new set of reverse Vintage tuners as the Squier ones are arse. I have also tweaked the neck a tad, full set up and lemon oiled the board. Frets were all excellent anyway. Sounds brill and looks really retro. No more GAS for now!!!!
  2. +1 for interparcel, good service.They sub out alot of their services to UPS.
  3. Top man, prompt payment. Buys/sells more basses than me!!! Thanks
  4. Its Randy Meisner (Ex Eagles). Here with his successor, Tim B Schmidt.
  5. I went to Dot funks last gig at the JC, great night.
  6. [quote name='Pete Academy' post='816651' date='Apr 23 2010, 08:13 PM']Regardless of genre, maybe the true innovators? We haven't really touched on the rock/metal/thrash/alternative/punk world.[/quote] I wonder why??
  7. Oh dear, why didnt this come up a week or so ago when I posted that i was after a US Precision in burst with a maple board in the WANTED section????? I have now bought the exact same bass but a Jazz.......... and I love it. We could swap but Im getting on great with the Jazz now. GL with the sale.
  8. When I read the title of this post I immeadiately put forward Peter Dennis Blandford Townshend. As I scrolled down I saw that Bassassasin had beaten me to it, and I am glad. Forget all the media hype if 6 odd years ago, Pete was and is a musical legend...a genius. His productivity over the years (not all reached the public arena) is amazing. He is, in my opinion, the Stephen Fry of the rock world...as soon as he speaks, I listen and in all cases, I am glad I did. He is a national musical treasure and it will be a sad day when he joins Keith and John.
  9. As described, complete with Wizard Thumper pup, BADASS2 bridge and pearloid white plate. Any interest? Offers around £340 please.
  10. So, did you have to enlarge the bush holes (matron!!)
  11. [quote name='warwickhunt' post='808747' date='Apr 16 2010, 06:24 PM']Nice one Neil. I was in communication with the guy trying to ascertain the weight of the bass but you obviously nipped in before he got that sorted. Just out of interest, when you get it would you mind sussing the weight as I'm trying to get a reference for what these CV P basses weigh.[/quote] Will do.
  12. [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260586142105&_trksid=p2759.l1259"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...sid=p2759.l1259[/url] Should I be annoyed? I dont need another bass, Ive just bought a US Std Jazz, I already have a MIM Precision....... now this. Am I ill? It was the price that weakened me.....
  13. [quote name='wolldav' post='806436' date='Apr 14 2010, 07:56 PM']Well my friend that would be a no no because all the power would be in your hands (unless the cash was put into my hands). Think about it, you would use your couriers to pick up the Cab, that means i would have no idea where its going or who its going too, you could send me a paypal payment and cancel it and i still wouldnt know where the Cab is (not saying that you would do that), hence me wanting to sell in the UK.[/quote] Steady on my friend, Im sure Bassbomb is saying he will pay you for the bass, THEN arrange a courier to pick up.
