Bought a Fender Bridge off of Ash, item as described. Excellent comms, and very quick delivery. 

Thanks Ash!

Ah ok, thanks.

GLWTS.

What is the difference between these and the original Player series? I have an original the same as that.

The Aeroplanes. Sadly a one album, which is hard to find, band. and only a few tracks available on youtube.

Looks nice. Good necks.

 

Might be worth adding the nut width to your ad.

Vernier say's 41.2mm

Please read.

I recently sold this neck on ebay only to have the buyer return it to me today. 

His reason being there is slight chip in the lacquer at the bottom edge of the skunk stripe behind the second fret which would make his thumb uncomfortable when playing?

To be totally honest I'd never noticed it when photographing it for the listing, I'm not saying it wasn't there, but I didn't pick up on it if it was.

The neck had been stood on a 5 way rack for around two months, so it I suppose it could have had a knock.  

Anyway, on running my thumb over it cannot see how it would make anyone uncomfortable.

I thought ok, the buyer isn't happy, I'll accept the return, even though I state no returns. I didn't want a ? hanging over my 100% ebay feedback.

The Return.

It has arrived back with damage to the lacquer on the headstock, something that was certainly not there when I sent it!

The buyer claims the was damage was done in transit on it's way to him, though he never mentioned this extra damage during any contact for the return, 

even after he'd taken a photo of it himself??? The neck was well packaged and internally protected with bubble wrap. it was returned in the same packaging and there is no signs of damage to the box.

Obviously I cannot prove this, but I suspect the buyer caused this extra damage in an attempt to make his case stronger in the event that I may refuse to accept the return.

This neck is totally playable and the truss rod works perfectly.

Due to the extra lacquer chip, I'm putting it up at a lower price than it was on ebay.

Photo's were taken for the ebay listing, apart from the final two close ups. 

Price includes P&P,

Any questions please feel free to message me.

I bought a Wizard pup off of Chris, all went swimmingly, pup arrived today very well packed and in great condition.

Thanks Chris.

Considering the RRP I can't believe someone hasn't snapped these up at such a bargain price.

Really! I thought I was buying the Thumper?

I'll relieve you of that Thumper if it's not already spoken for?

@paul_5 Your ears are fine! The SFAJT album is mainly a Ric 4000. Also there's a bit of Fretless P bass on there too apparently!

One of my favourites is Slàite Mhath, I love that little fill he does after the "Beer mats" lyric.

After hearing the over played and dreadful Loser, I ever really took any notice of his stuff until I saw him a few years ago on TV live in Northern Ireland and was blown away. Colors is a fantastic album!

I ignored them initially, then I happened to see them at Reading in 1983, where they were excellent. 

Went out and bought Script and was totally blown away, The Web being one of my all time favs of theirs.

I got to meet Fish and Steve at the HMV store in Middlesbrough around 1984/85, they came across as very humble and down to earth blokes.

I bought all the Fish era albums on their release, IMHO Clutching at Straws is one of the finest albums of the 1980's. Great band, I still isten to them regularly.

Don't post clickbait then

 

WTAF is that supposed to be?  Is it my eyes or are the "pickguard" and "pickups" just a printed sheet of paper?

My thoughts exactly

Not very much at all they were on a Thunderbird that I put back to stock condotion and sold last year. They've been sat in the box ever since.

£30 Final price drop.

Another vote for Carlsbro. Bought it for £25 back in 1981. Flat as a pancake in looks and sound.

I have a set on a Vintera II and to be honest the tension is fine, I didn't have to adjust the Truss rod after swapping out the stock strings,

they do however sound a lot thinner than the Ernie Ball flats I have on my Squier CV, but that has a Fender Pure vinatge 62 pup installed, so it could well be 

that making the difference, I'm not sure what the stock pup in the Vintera is.

Hi Lewis, i have one of these (in FS at the moment too), i'm interested, where did you find a bridge with the holes that line up because i couldn't find one, it seemed that the the holes line up differently from the original 'hi-mass' bridge, did you have to 're-drill' as id probably keep mine if i can get a direct like-for-like replacement like this one, thanks in advance

Rog

I have a CV 70's with the same hi mass I swapped it out for a Hosco vintage bridge, all holes lined up perfectly except one of the outer ones, but I found I could still get the screw in and irlt was fine. Hope this helps.
