    Is that not a Vigier Arpege and not a passion? The pickup config makes me suspect arpege.

    (Sorry if I am just retreading old ground here.) Firstly, USPS has always been good to me. Never had a problem. Ken, surely you can see the problem with a 100 dollar shipping charge for something as small as a pot. Maybe giving the choice of using USPS with the understanding that it would take longer to reach the customer would be better. Theres clearly a demand for your spare parts. Surely putting some effort into enabling your customers to get spare parts to fix your basses out in the world is importent. If I ever did get around to playing a Ken Smith and all I found were damaged ones (In some aspect) then I would generally look at the manufacturer for potentially supplying a poor product using components that just fall apart. Obviously you do provide a very quality product, but if I didnt know any better thats how I would mistakenly view it. Other quality bass manufacturers ship with USPS (For example Micheal Pedulla sent out an owners kit for my MVP5 charging me 35 bucks shipped, it got here within 5 days which left me a happy camper.) and they dont appear to have a problem in using that service. So in closing. Provide the option of using USPS will make your customers far happier (especially those with limited budgets) If i were a luthier, I would spend the extra time to make sure what basses that are out there,(Which are a form of advertising) are working to their full potential. Hell, charge more for the pot itself to adjust the cost of having to get to the post office, it'll still be cheaper then sending UPS!

    Hey guys. I am moving to a different city very soon. As much as it breaks my heart, I may need to sell some of my collection to make the move more comfortable. The reality is, I have some debts I would like to pay off, I need some equipment for my new job and the music scene is far smaller in the new city. Also, considering I wont be able to rely on parents and friends for transport with my equipment I may have to start cutting down. These prices arent the cheapest around but I really dont want to let any of these go for less then what they are worth to me. If you want it, this is the price you pay. So up for belated sale. [b]Fender Precision Deluxe V now SOLD[/b] [b]Fender USA Jazz Deluxe V, Montego black, maple/maple neck. Seymour Duncan Quarter pounders, J-retro Deluxe. some light scratches and marks, needs new strings. Includes hardcase. £900[/b] [b] Pedulla MVP5 custom, refinished recently in nuclear glow in the dark green. 27Volt EMG BTC pre-amp System, EMG MMTW and P5,Hipshot ultralite tuners, Schaller 3D bridge, Dunlop locking strap pins. No damage at all. Comes with hardcase and Pedulla owners kit. This is a SERIOUS bass. £1500[/b] [b] My Ampeg SVT Is still for sale here. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=128938"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=128938[/url][/b] Might even sell the barefaced Vintage/T, though will be a premium price as they arent being made anymore and is only one of two tweeter models ever made. Only part exchanges or trades I would consider would be for a Quiet but powerful power amp thats valued at around £200, an original Gibson Grabber bass, fretless 5 strings or a Vigier Passion Mk1 bass. Other really high end basses will be considered. [b]I reserve the right to pull this advert and any of these basses from sale at any point before cash handover. [/b] Would much prefer Local pickup in Bristol. More photos available on request. There you have it ladies and gents.

    [quote name='jembullo' post='1257919' date='Jun 5 2011, 10:49 PM']Hi Shockwave Can this head work with an 8 ohm cab or is it only safe to use with 2 or 4ohm cabs. Cheers Jem[/quote] Hey mate. I have only used it with a 4Ohm cab. However the Ampeg manual states that running higher impedence will work. It will make the amp work a little harder (overdrive earlier) and it will shorten the valve life somewhat. How much I couldnt say, a number of TBers run the SVT with 8ohms with no real problems. Personally I would run it at the impedence the amp is switched to. An excuse for more cabs! Having said that I know of one guy who has been running his SVT with an 8ohm cab for more then 10 years! You could however, potentially rewire your 8Ohm cab to run at 2Ohms.

    [quote name='Nostromo' post='1256397' date='Jun 4 2011, 12:33 PM']Anyway, I cant seem to find anything out about this model at all, so if any of you fender bass guru's out there could enlighten me about this bass or offer any info about the background to this model and how its now considered in terms of value and collectability then I'd be very interested to hear ? ? ? [attachment=81727:Prodigy.jpg][/quote] Well, I believe it was made with Mexican made hardware and finished in the US though I am not certain. Its worth what people will pay for it. I saw one go for £190 a few months back on Ebay. It would only go higher if two people got into a bidding war. Collectability, not very much its just not a desirable Fender as it falls between the traditional and "Out there" catagory.
