  1. Is that a p-bass with P/J pickups?! Otherwise I've already got a p-bass that I love
  2. [quote name='Rammsteinbrit' timestamp='1337787316' post='1665478'] Interested in Trades? [/quote] Not really no, sorry, just the cash!
  3. [quote name='Nate' timestamp='1336331832' post='1644161'] To be fair - you came close! Good luck with the sale! [/quote] Cheers!
  4. [quote name='Nate' timestamp='1336326839' post='1644095'] I'm afraid I won't be taking this one off your hands. Had this have been a 5... you'd have sad bye to it by now... [/quote] Oh dear, I didn't think I could persuade you with just the pickguard! Good luck finding the right 5'er T
  5. [quote name='mckendrick' timestamp='1336317486' post='1643907'] That's an exceedingly fair price, Tom. And how handsome it is with the torty plate. Good luck with the sale type bump. . [/quote] My thoughts too, but nobody close to it yet....
  6. [quote name='Nate' timestamp='1336216697' post='1642597'] Add another string..? I have an American Jazz 4 with a maple neck. Do I need another Jazz 4? Hmmm I SHOULD only be looking at 5s but I'll easily led! Oh fudge.. [/quote] Hmmmm, well I can't quite add another string but are you not slightly more than tempted by the look?! I mean I added a tortoiseshell pickguard and block inlays, who doesn't need them???
  7. [quote name='Nate' timestamp='1336157071' post='1641979'] T.E.M.P.T.E.D. [/quote] And how could I tempt you further sir?...
  8. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Hi all,[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Here is my 2008-2008 Mexican 70s Jazz Bass. It's served me well for 6 months or so but has been pushed back in the pecking order since I realised that I'm really just P-bass guy at heart. [/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I'm selling for no other reason than that.[/font][/color] [font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#282828]If I do say so myself, it makes a lovely sound and this is one of the better quality mexican basses that I've played. I've made it even better (ascetically) with the addition of a tortoiseshell pick guard, if you'd like the original too, I've still got that hanging around. Other than that it's all original stuff.[/color][/font] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]For more pictures than I've uploaded here, have a look here:[/font][/color] [url="http://flic.kr/s/aHsjzHLVHV"]http://flic.kr/s/aHsjzHLVHV[/url] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I'm sure most of you know a bit about this bass, but if not have a look here for some blurb:[/font][/color] [b][url="http://tinyurl.com/6vhlsvw"]http://tinyurl.com/6vhlsvw[/url][/b] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]here for the specs:[/font][/color][list] [*][i]Model Name: ‘70s Jazz Bass[/i] [*][i]Model Number: 013-2000-(Colour#) [/i] [*][i]Series: Classic Series [/i] [*][i]Colours: (300) 3-Colour Sunburst, (306) Black, (Polyurethane Finish) [/i] [*][i]Body: Alder [/i] [*][i]Neck: Maple, ‘70s “C” Shape, (Gloss Polyurethane Finish) [/i] [*][i]Fingerboard: Rosewood, 7.25” Radius (184mm) [/i] [*][i]No. of Frets: 20 Vintage Style Frets [/i] [*][i]Pickups: 2 Vintage Style Jazz Bass Single-Coil Pickups with AlNiCo Magnets [/i] [*][i]Controls: Volume 1.

  9. [quote name='supabock' timestamp='1322774522' post='1455850'] Hi Tom, Do you have a site where we could all listen to some of your playing?? [/quote] Well, now you mention it!... Just for you lot I've created a SoundCloud account and have put a link above
  10. Yes, yes, it's a massive long shot I know, so do please save the sarcastic comments! But now with that said, seriously anyone up for a swap?... My compact was bought from another BC'er not long ago. He told me it was bought around May/June 2011 so it's not old at all. I've discussed converting it to a silver grille with Alex Claber but it seems that it's more a risk than I thought it might be. So, if anyone out there is aesthetically dissatisfied with their compact I'd love to hear from them! Tom
  11. [quote name='owen' timestamp='1317129358' post='1387093'] So you can set up an email reminder if an item you are looking for comes up? How? That is too exciting for words! [/quote] Not quite that sophisticated, just the subscribe to forum button!
  12. [quote name='algmusic' timestamp='1316603695' post='1380180'] if this was an year ago, I could have helped you out when I bought my bass cab [/quote] No plans to buy another one soon??! I'm hoping to catch someone doing the very same thing but in the present, not the past!
  13. [quote name='uncle psychosis' timestamp='1316519577' post='1379030'] If you *really* want rid of it I'd go down and spend the whole lot on something you could sell easily and that keep their value pretty well---probably Boss guitar pedals or something. [/quote] Hmmm yep that's what I thought. I wasn't too keen on paying eBay fees on whatever it was that I bought though, I don't mind making a loss on it but how much of a loss is the question...
  14. Hi all, I'm not too sure where this topic belongs so I went for the most general one. I'm after some help! You might even call it a favour: bass-ically I have a £365 credit note for Wembley Guitar Centre that I could really do with spending on more pressing things. If anyone is off to buy something anytime soon from that shop I could really do with offloading my credit note to them. I could even meet you there with it... I really am that desperate!! Of course I would be eternally grateful and if it sways anyone I could offer a little discount, say give me £350 and you get my £365 credit note. Failing all that, any other ideas on how to offload it would be very welcome! Yours Hopefully, Tom
  15. PM's replied to. Thanks for the offer Rob but it's going to have to be a no. I'm pretty specific on the Sunburst American Vintage '62 Jazz or Barefaced stuff, I'm trying to narrow my collection down rather than collect more! Tom
