Wow. That is quite wonderful.

[quote name='Stewart' post='842800' date='May 20 2010, 08:36 AM']Is this some kind of viral fan club? Not impressed...[/quote] Errrr... This is what's commonly known as a 'web forum'. What happens is someone starts a topic & if people have a sensible response to do with the opening post then they might choose to post a reply about their knowledge/experience of Pete Cornish cables. They might like them, they might not. The OP thinks they're really good - so I would presume he thought others might want to check them out. As to whether you're 'impressed' or not? Thanks for your valuable input. It's been really helpful.

[quote name='tauzero' post='842591' date='May 19 2010, 10:09 PM']It's been "messed about with" (or "enhanced") to improve it as a working instrument. That's the sad dichotomy between instruments as investments and instruments for musical use.[/quote] If it sells it'll more & likely end up hanging on a wall in bar in LA...so never get played again anyway. A sad end for a great bass that's been played on some great records.

[quote name='wateroftyne' post='842599' date='May 19 2010, 10:15 PM']Looks like it's been refinned as well...?[/quote] That's had the 'full monty' - refin, new pickguard, bridge in addition to the Jazz p-up & electrics...

Yep. This is genuine. But it's a shame it's been so messed about with...has been used on some great records though. Back in the day I owned a G&L for a short while that used to belong to Dave Pegg - was given to him personally by Leo Fender as a gift...

Nice authenticated history to it, although I would have thought for that amount of money you would want to try to put some clearer pics up because the main pic makes the finish look a bit too shiney shiney for such a used instrument.[/quote]

Yes - I'm pretty sure that's the winning price. So the buyer did very well - that's a good price for a '60 Jazz. [quote name='Sibob' post='841979' date='May 19 2010, 01:03 PM']Did it actually go for that?? Does a reserve still show up as 'not reached' even when the auction has ended? Si[/quote]

[quote name='HMX' post='840703' date='May 18 2010, 11:59 AM']Pure jazz growl - particularly noticeable on the low E sections around 0:36. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TB_fi1fB3k"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TB_fi1fB3k[/url][/quote] Yep - spot-on. That's nailed it for me. Though I think he uses a [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8YLDb2hiLU"]pair of Dark Stars in his Jazz here[/url]?

Ash is a splendid fellow. Delivered a great bass cab tonight - which was EXACTLY as described. No problems, no fuss, just a great deal with a top class basschatter. Highly recommended!

"it will go in the back of a medium sized hatch no problem, although heavy one person can lift it although I wouldn't advise it."

[quote name='WILD FROG SHOT' post='822848' date='Apr 29 2010, 11:09 AM']+VAT on bidding price, +VAT on 15% buyers fee[/quote] + you have to drive to Stockport to collect them!

Looks genuine to me - with an honest description. Though, would always want to see it all in the flesh before parting with the cash. An ideal candidate for a nice restoration & body re-fin. Is probably a really great player's bass - from an outstanding year for Fender basses. Yes £3K would be a fair price IMHO.

[quote name='derrenleepoole' post='784888' date='Mar 24 2010, 05:57 PM']It is rather good, and while the screen is small for some chord charts, it's usability and ease of use make it an essential tool for the gigging musician.

[quote name='Musky' post='788291' date='Mar 28 2010, 01:23 AM'] Tune-o-matic was the sellers actual ebay user name wasn't it? And oddly enough the Jazz bass that was constantly relisted by someone trying to expose him as a supposed fraud was CAR as well. Perhaps he only had a little left over. [/quote] Yeah - this is the other account of infamous Tune-o-matic.... where he sells the parts he doesn't 'allegedly' use in his 100% original super-expensive vintage guitar auctions. Check out the other stuff for sale - a choco bass case for $2,500.
