First Bass Owned: Fender mex jazz 'Go To' Bass: Fender mex jazz 'Your' Bass: Fender mex jazz had the same bass for 10 years now. changed the pups and I'm happy. still always looking for something nicer but never found it.

I am really looking forward to seeing more pics. I was never aware of herbie flowers' bass before and seen some pics... If I could guarantee how much money I was earning for the next year I'd be messaging you right now but alas the world of freelancer has not been too kind at the mo

[quote name='3V17C' post='1086489' date='Jan 12 2011, 10:44 AM']I got some done last year as was playing a few decent venues with decent bands so thought may as well.... got them from vistaprint and free apart from the postage.. so 200 cards for about a fiver.. [attachment=68545:chjBusiness_Card.jpg] (incidentally - ignore the fact the my website is pointing to a myspace page... a temporary measure!!) peace c[/quote] +1 for vistaprint

the bass reminds me of a mexican fender a friend of mine had and I've seen it appear on this site. the name escapes me, I vaguely remember it being active with a 51 style plate. EDIT- cowpoke!

Very nice. I had my eye on one of the eastwood versions. I love the shape of them, if you get it let us know what its like!

Broke the E string first song in on my only bass. Had no other bass but carried on with the other 3 strings. Very strange rearranging my playing, everyone said it sounded fine but I thought it all sounded like I was playing disco bass lines

That is gorgeous!

Looking forward to pics of this. Im kicking myself for never buying a squier supersonic which was going for a song brand new a few years back. I think that was a vista series as well

I did a days work with him recently when he was recording the music with bbc wales orchestra for a tv series called human planet for bbc/discovery. (think blue planet but with humans- its on sometime in the new year) here's a link:- [url="http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p006v5c6"]http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p006v5c6[/url] Hugely inspiring, intelligent and funny man. It was amazing to see him in the control room conducting the conductor! Love his work

+1 on eltham and Dave, if they can't help I'm sure they can point you in the right direction!

haven't released anything in years so cant add much but a1cds helped an old band of ours out and were quite competitive. their website looks no different after 5 or 6 years though!

some nice kit One day I shall get a starfire (or equivalent!)

arrgh!! missed the isolated tracks

I had one of them with original case. I wonder if they'll ever be popular again? sold it to one of my best mates for 200 quid. He's doing loads of gigs with it

"Hey guys,hello to you all. Im Stu, 26 from South Wales. I used to post a lot under the name stu-khagool on the old Bassworld site until I moved and had no internet connection and then the site disappeared! Ho hum. Anywhoos, getting back into my bass playing as Im starting to record again with friends and eventually want to start gigging. At this present time I still have my beloved Mex Fender Bass which has had the various upgrades along the way, A Hamer Jazz style Bass (P and J pickups, Sting had one which was pointed out to me on the ole bassworld site) and I currently have an SWR 350 head and Triad cab being used as a bedside table and a Big old Laney combo as well. Peace out and here's to '08 stu" Christ I'm now 29, sold my swr rig and Hamer and still have the jazz. Here's to '11!

I chose my jazz because of the offset shape and the neck was much nicer than the equivalent precision at the time. I have a one in, one out policy so if I was to find a precision then it would have to be pretty special!

Looks very nice. can I ask what the pickup selector switch does on a single pickup guitar? does it cut or boost the signal or something?

massive macca fan. Abbey Road has always been the definitive album for me to learn from.
