  1. Hopefully, they'll find this 🙂
  2. 41 year old Ibanez RB924 CS (Cherry Sunburst) From my favourite era of Ibanez shapes, this has tow passive pickups, master volume, pan, passive tone and three way switch which I seem to recall does parallel / series and some other option. It makes a difference !! Pickups look like soap bars, but are double J and P when you look at the pole pieces. The sound confirms this. Super skinny neck which is very easy to play. Condition is very decent for the age, it's not pristine, but marks are confined to the rear. For sale as something else has drawn my eye. Will ship anywhere in the UK and happy to work out your choice of shipping service. More photos to follow shortly as soon as my drive behaves.
  3. The whole band are excellent.
  4. What a great player and his Overwater is sounding fantastic here.
  5. Your black one is the double of mine. I'll maybe need to sell my 4 string and buy this off you as a perfect spare.
  6. A great price for a USA Musicman. I have two of these ( a 4 and a 5 ) and they're fantastic.
  7. I'll definitely be keeping these two original. I'd want them to be as they left the factory, including the ugly logo.
  8. I don't disagree, but I won't be changing it. It is what it is and I'll keep it pretty much original.
  9. I guess this means I know a good thing when I see it. Here with its 4 string brother.
  10. Didn't plan on buying one of these this weekend, but I'm a real fan of these 2003-2006 SUBs. Sports Utility Bass ? Stingray's Ugly Brother ? It certainly has 'that' tone. Next weekend, I won't plan on buying a Highway One Precision in 3TSB.
  11. This post cannot be displayed because it is in a forum which requires at least 1 post to view.
  12. Yep, The headstock upgrade was done exactly as they do all such instruments having left the factory painted black. Toby applied stain for the laminate effet.
  13. That's my old bass, I got Toby to do the refinish and the veneer headstock finish. That and the purpleburst finish. Between original purchase price and refinish it owed my £1k and I sold it for £1,400.
  14. Each of them for a price somewhere a Squier and a Mex. Not a difficult one to get past the steering committee.
  15. The funny thing is, this Jazz is no shrinking violet. It wants to be heard and has quite an in your face voice. Quite unlike other Jazz basses I've had. The neck is easier than the SUB, which has a slightly chunkier neck, but also has a 'listen to me' voice too. Both great in their own way.
  16. There may be one or two others, but a 2x NBD declaration, I know. The world's gone mad !
  17. I really must stay off Basschat... Shouldn't complain though, I very recently managed to snag two basses that have been on my list for a long time. Namely, a Highway One Fender Jazz and a Musicman SUB. Both USA built, both the bottom of their domestically built range. Their modest new price tags were reflected in their used values and I couldn't be more pleased. I'll put my 6 string basses to the side for a bit and enjoy a simpler life.
  18. I had their fretless Jazz. The Jaco looking one. Played nicely but was very very heavy.
  19. Recently bought a Musicman Sub from Ash. Excellent comms throughout and no issues at all. All good !!
  20. Bought Joebass's 2007 Fender Highway One Jazz Bass. The bass was exactly as described, was very well packed, and was sent promptly after first class communications. All good !!
  21. My bass was an '86 which I bought in poor cosmetic condition. The bass in the pics is that same bass after Toby Diggins worked his magic back at the factory. All up, between purchase and refurb, it owed me a grand. I got £1,450 out of it. New Roadie IIA is £1,500 and Supernatural Series III is £1.900. Once it was finished, mine was neither of those, so I did ok.
  22. That's why I moved it on. I didn't want to risk compromising it, which is no way to be with a bass.
