    Squier Classic Vibe 60s Mustang bass All specs listed here: https://uk.fender.com/products/classic-vibe-60s-mustang-bass A previous owner added a Fender decal. A cream pearl pickguard (from ebay's earlpilanz) has been installed; the original tort is included too. Strings are the Mustang-specific 43-104 La Bella Deep Talkin' flats, and I'll also include some roundwounds. If you don't want the La Bella flats, I'll knock off £20. Truss rod working, and the relief and intonation have been set. Weight: my kitchen scales say 3.86kg (8lb 8oz). £280 collected from Bristol, or £295 posted within UK.

    A pro doesn't want (or need) a run-through, or to have to prepare anything. You'll have more success if you have good charts and the dep can just turn up and sight-read the gig.

    Nice neck I recently bought from basschat's Beedster, but in the end I've decided to go in a different direction. The tuner bushings are very slightly smaller than the holes, so they've been wrapped with electrical tape for a snug fit. £175 including UK postage. heel width: 64.3mm heel depth: 26.3mm nut width: 38.4mm width at 12th fret: 57.0mm depth at 1st fret: 21.5mm depth at 12th fret: 23.8mm

    Can you ask the instruments' owner to arrange the courier and insurance, so they can take on the work and responsibility of arranging everything and making insurance claims etc if something goes wrong.

    Was the first bass top-loaded, and the second through-body?

    Just received a bass I bought from @BaggyMan Great communication, keeping in touch throughout. Bass was packed well, and he scheduled the delivery to be on a convenient day for me. Thanks!

    So something's clipping, but is it possible the problem originates upstream of the amp? What's your entire signal chain?

    You've probably already checked, in which case apologies - but don't they come with a three-year warranty, although perhaps it might depend on which retailer you bought it from and if you registered the purchase?

    Pickups

    jrixn1 replied to JPJ's topic in EUB and Double Bass

    Another thing than pickups and EQ: I found if my amp volume is quite high and I play lightly, it doesn't sound great - no attack and a long sustain. But if the amp is set low and I pluck a lot more firmly, it sounds much more natural - a thump and then quick decay. Related, experiment with changing (increasing) the string height.

    I bought a pedalboard from @ordep in an easy transaction, well packaged, and with prompt postage - thanks!

    Bass does sound an octave lower than written - but so does guitar. Strictly speaking both instruments should be written with octave clefs, although most often they aren't.

    There are lots of wiring diagrams here: http://www.ak-line.com/medium/Bassschaltungen.pdf Is it a Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar Bass with stacked pots?
