  1. Yamaha GA15 G****r Practice Amp - Works Absolutely Fine With Bass as well for practice sessions.

    Has a useful distortion channel which is pretty damn good as well.

    £30 collected from Chorley Lancs or somewhere reasonably nearby - I work in Preston if that helps anyone at all.

    The blurb:
    [b]Our new twin channel GA-15 amplifier was designed to be a perfect practice partner - and it's great for backstage warm-up sessions too! The compact and very light amp delivers serious clean, crunch and distortion sounds. A great headphones jack is also featured so you can practice in private.[/b]

  3. I see that there are recent Fender Standard USA Jazz's around?

    Is the newer range the one with the Custom Shop 60's pickups?
    Is this the only significant difference?

    What are the general opinions on the difference in the pickups - better / worse than the American Standard Jazz Bass Single-Coil Pickups?

    Final question, has the custom shop pickup version now replaced the American Standard Jazz Bass Single-Coil Pickup version as the Standard USA Fender Jazz option?

  4. Superb bass this.
    I've got exactly the same one although mine is a bit scruffier than this lovely example.
    My bass is from the same time as well so has the non adjustable Tone Pump.

    See this thread here as there is some discussion over whether or not the Tone Pump is boost only.

    http://basschat.co.uk/topic/93320-spector-tonepump-is-not-boost-only/page__hl__spector%20boost

    I love the Tone Pump, loads of tones from throbbing dub bass to glassy highs and everything in between.

    Good Luck with the sale.

  5. Based in the North West, I would love to visit a Warwick stocking that has the 'full suite' of Warwicks.
    I believe they are difficult to deal with from a stockist/distributor point of view as they try to force onto the store the full range of stock and amps which I suspect would give most stores an issue in the amount of money they would have to spend to put some stock on site.

  6. Agreed with the above, one of those songs you can play as simply or more difficult if you want.
    In fact if you get the groove down you could probably get away with playing almost anything over it.

    I'm sure I've got an old magazine transcription with the dots somewhere if that helps you at all?

  7. Hello There 'The Hat'

    Hope you are getting on with the Bass Collection alright.

    The Bass Collection, even more so with the upgraded electrics, will actually give you a good Precision sound (P Bass) by using only the neck pickup and also a good Jazz sound by using only the bridge pickup.

    At the moment I happen to have both a Precision and a Jazz bass and am more than happy for you to come over and have a look and a listen and a chat about all things bass.

    You know where I am if that sounds of interest.

  8. Agree with some of the opinions on this.
    I tried one of these in Dawson's - they were telling me about it having a USA pickup - which I didn't think sounded up to much compared to the other P's they had in. Makes sense now reading the above.
    Seems like a bit of a 'Frankenstein' / random Fender parts bass.

  9. Bargain - what a price!
    If I wasn't going to London this weekend I would be darkening your door with my presence to play this again giving it some serious thought of getting into trouble with Mrs Bagsieblue (again)
    Have a bump - somebody should snap this up.
