Great gig at The Waterloo In Blackpool last night for SOLDATO.
Although setting off in plenty of time and planning for Blackpool Illuminations traffic we arrived with about 15 mins to spare before our set up time.
HX Stomp was playing up through the early part of the set - kept powering off and rebooting - need to investigate that!.
All that considered - happy with how we played.
You can catch the whole gig on the link below. Our slot is from about 45:00 to 1:30:00 on the video below, 2nd band on.

Nordstrand Big Blade PJ Pickup Set - £120 posted Mainland UK.
Actual photo to follow but these are in great condition.
Installed on a screw terminal so not been soldered.
J Pickup is the “clean and clear” wind.
This set of pickups is everything the title tells you it is: fat, slap-tastic fury from the P Blade, and an aggressive yet tamable tone from the Big J Blade. In the case of the Big J Blade, players may choose either a “warm and wooly” or “clean and clear” wind. In terms of what our builders can control upon the conception of their BJB, it is this choice in wind which serves as the player’s first and foremost front in customizing their BJB tone. The P Blade, however, is not quite so malleable. Its coalitions of magnetism and hardware belting through low and mid frequencies breeds the facilitation of doom for the sound spectrum, so we at Nordstrand suggest that if you’re looking for a raw, untamed, and aggressive sound accompanied by a disinhibiting yet friendly mediator, then the NPJ Blade set is right for you.
Technical Details (J-Blade):
· Big J-Blade Jazz-style Pickup.
· Uniform magnetic field—no worries about pole spacing.
· Choice in “warm and wooly” or “clean and clear” wind.
· Loaded with two ceramic bar magnets.
· Laser cut, vulcanized fiber bobbins wound with 42 Heavy Formvar wire.
· Potted in a paraffin-beeswax mix to contain any unruly frequency that may attempt to desecrate your desired tone.
· 19mm maximum pitch—works for most basses.
· Blade radius designed for even output in most basses: (14”r: vintage round)
Technical Details (P-Blade):
· Hum canceling split coil 4 string precision-type bass pickup.
· Thick steel blade.
· No worries about string spacing!
· Loaded with two ceramic bar magnets.
· Drop-in replacement P-bass pickup.
· Available in black plastic covers
· Laser cut vulcanized fiber bobbins.
· Blade radius designed for even output in most basses: (14”r: vintage round)
· Potted in a paraffin-beeswax mix to contain any unruly frequency that may attempt to desecrate your desired tone.
Photo here - will remove from bass (solder less installation) once buyer is found.

I think the MEC preamps are not all that great. Completely agree with the OP in that it's never quite sits well.
In my opinion the MEC preamps only really pairs well with a Thumb bass or a Doublebuck.
Plenty of options of course, I've enjoyed tonepumps, ACG EQ01 and EMG preps in Warwick.

Fender Jazz Bass Guitar - Made In Japan - 1993/1994.
£650 Shipped Mainland UK
Weight is 4.14kg or 9lb 2oz.
Serial number dates to 1993/1994.
Good overall condition given the age, getting towards 30 years old.
Dings and dents are shown in the photographs, has certainly been a players basses, lots of dings and dents on the body. Some tarnishing on the bridge.
Hairline surface mark around the G string Tuner - shown in photograph.
Looks much better without the pickguard to my eye. Comes with the 1 ply pickguard - has yellowed with age and looks to have had a sticker on for some time that has left the white patch, again as shown in photos.
A great players bass - set up with a nice medium action, still loads of life left in the frets.

Its not an old one - It's 2013 indeed -9 years old, to me, that's no great age.
It's not an "early run" - the early run ones are the Chinese ones from c2009. 50s and 60s models.
It's not "highly desirable - again, these are the Chines ones from c2009.
It's not the original pickups - the J pickup looks Dimarzio ash to me?
It's not 7.5lbs - agree with warwickhunt on that one

They only made 50 of the Euro4 LE '77 bass. Not sure how many of the Euro4 LE '79 were produced but I can't imagine it was too many more.
The 40th Anniversary Euros were 12 of each I believe in Blue and Red.
There is also a similar special edition Green one, that was a 3 of I believe. I'll try and find some pics.

Warwick Streamer $$ 4 String Double Buck. Taken recently in trade, nice bass but I want/need to move a couple of basses along still.
Great basses these and more attractive in my view and less common than the Corvette shaped $$.
Dates from 2006, good condition, a small chip on the underside of the 5th fret area and some fairly minor scars on the back of the neck.Some signs of wear and the odd minor mark / blemish on the body of the bass, commensurate with a 15 year old bass.
A nice, clean bass, currently set with a lovely easy playing low action.
Double humbucker design, incredible amount of sound options available from this bass - covers pretty much any style with the coil switching for each pickup: serial, parallel and single coil, and all the variations / permutations of this.
Specifications:
Bolt-on Neck Design
US Swamp Ash
Maple neck
Wenge fingerboard
Scale length: 34" (long scale)
24 frets
Passive MEC MM-style humbuckers with large open pole pieces, coil switching for each pickup: serial, parallel and single coil
Active MEC 2-band electronics
Finishes: Natural oil finish and colored oil finish
Warwick tuners
2-piece Warwick bridge.
Please message me for any other details / photographs etc.
