  1. Thats a really nice walnut top on yours, very nicely figured, AFAIK gold hardware has always been standard on that model!!! fantastic bass with a great neck, a very warm growly tone!! with a really sweet high end, and a slap tone to die for, all in all a cracking bass, mark at bass direct will order you one for £3500, or you could!!!!!!!
  2. [quote name='nick' post='1142145' date='Feb 26 2011, 10:29 AM'][b]2004 Fender CIJ '62 RI[/b], bought off Lee650 on here some time ago Upgraded tuners, CTS pots, PIO tone cap, Seymour Duncan SPB-1 'Vintage' pickup, covers added.... otherwise standard Strung with La Bella flats. Its not a heavy bass; a nice weight & a lovely neck to play - a good bass for long gigs. [/quote] Its earlier incarnation, i couldnt resist it [attachment=73433:P5250138.JPG][attachment=73434:3238_114..._n.jpg_2.jpg]

  4. Ive just put some chromes on my jazz (used to have some on a P bass i had) as i have a lot of shows coming up that require that thumpy DB tone,(not that it will sound anything like a DB )and as much as i love the sound of flats on a recording, i realy cant get on with the dark,indistinct sound they make live, its not a bad sound just not for me, a nice set of worn sunbeams can get plenty of warmth.
  5. actually just had another look and the MOP dots on the fingerboard are an extra option and is the top upgraded? bump for a lovely bass if i had the money i,d take your arm off, i miss my smith greatly!!!
  6. I Had one of these for a while but was forced to sell it best 5 string ive ever had it was amazing, what are the extra options on this bass?

  10. I absolutely adore my accugroove cabs but the bergantino line has had me interested for a long time, id love to try one, i must ask has the IP series been discontinued? i didnt see the on the website last i looked
  11. First Bass Owned: Vantage (with a dimarzio P pickup ) 'Go To' Bass: Fender jazz (well an 82 squire anyway ) 'Your' Bass: Ken smith BSRMW5 Unfirtuntely i dont have the smith anymore but it is the benchmark for "my sound"
  12. AAAARRRGGGGHHH its kips "madelaine" video bass, i really want it, but ive no money fantastic bass someones getting a beauty ( it does need the EMG,S though)
  13. good luck with the smith stewart, you wont be dissapointed
  14. Just noticed this, ill check my gig diary and hopefully will be at the blackburn gig on the 5th

  17. wow ive been admiring these basses since a fellow basschatter put me on to them, absolutlely stunning i would love to try one!! would never have the cash though check these out i am very enamoured by the hollow bodied eclipses and they have lovely wooden bridges that string through the body!! bump for this work of art!!
  18. [quote name='Mike' post='1118457' date='Feb 7 2011, 12:01 AM']Hi - this has literally just been sold and is now at a fantastic home! Thanks for the interest.[/quote] About bloody time too!! a lovely bass
  19. I had one of these a while ago,i really regret selling it, great bass for the money, going at a very good price too, shame im skint!!! bump
  20. If i had the cash id take your arm off mate, absolutely stunning, after years of only buying fretless jazzes i think my next foray will be with a stingray, great colour, as my 2 year old daughter just remarked "ooohhh thats very red" nuff said big bump!!
  21. yeah they are both mexican, the duff is a reproduction of the old japenese jazz special which has a no scratchplate P bass body P/J pickups and has a jazz neck, the roger one looks like a 7o,s syle so will have a chunkier P bass neck, they both look great but id get the Duff!!! better still hang on for an original jazz special to come up, they will be far superior im sure, there was a lovely red one on sale on here a while ago i really wanted it!!!
  22. just think you,d pay a bit over 3k for a CS pino or suchlike and will be reliced to look worse than this!! bargain, ive never hankered after a vintage fender but i want this!!!
  23. You are right the term "keeper" is used a lot, i have an 82 squire jazz i bought it when i was 19 so ive had it 18 years next month, ive used it everywhere, mind you it did spend a few years under my bed at my mums while i travelled and gigged away as i was using various yamahas and warwicks, but these days its gettin plenty of use, it is a "keeper" i will never sell it and ive never even thought of selling it!! It must ba a basschat GAS term as i never suffered too much from gas while i was a pro player i had what i liked and used them for quite a while till something interesting came along(not that often), as soon as i got a normal job 4 years ago i had evenings to myself and joined basschat and ive been through loads of basses not as many as some mind , but my faves have been a musicman sterling (a keeper) until a ken smith came along and that definately was a keeper, i only sold it due to financial bother, if i didnt need to i would have used it for a very long time. now i have a very lovely spector. a keeper? im not sure the jurys still out but i doubt it, too much GAS!!!!!!. very happy at the moment though!! Ido know where my sterling and smith are though and i will have them back
