    I'm off to NZ.

    I Love NZ!!! Its a beautiful place, i remember going to a great little cafe in christchurch that had jazz on and did great pizzas, sat in the garden in the sun a lovely day!!!, anyway good luck mate i hope the work picks up so you can buy loads more posh basses, im a bit jealous actually i would love to relocate my family there, as my wife and i really fell in love with the place, i dont think NZ needs any bass players who work in banking but ont worry im a nice guy and im skint too!!!. good luck again crazykiwi - lee
  5. Just as a matter if intrest i have a cij 62 reissue Precision, are these the standard ones for this bass, if so what have you replaced them with, ive been looking for replacemants but hipshot/schaller are too big!! cheers - lee These were taken off a '04 CIJ Fender Precision and are slightly tarnished (the way nickel hardware gets after a while – I guess you could call it mojoed!). Other than that, they work just fine. The second photo shows the sort of tarnish I mean – it's not that noticeable in person. Come with bushings and screws. [attachment=24456:DSC02140.jpg][attachment=24458:DSC02141.jpg] Note that these use a slightly smaller shaft diameter than normal – 12mm compared to 14mm used on other Fender style tuners. Hence, they require a 15mm hole for their bushings and so probably won't fit the majority of headstock holes which are drilled for 17.6mm bushings. The Gotoh [url="http://www.hosco.co.jp/HOSCO_ENGLISH/Pages/gotoh_catalog2008/bass_standard.html#Open%20gear"]product listing[/url] for them has detailed dimensions: [attachment=24457:bass_standard.jpg] They retail for about £50 new, so make me an offer.

  6. My fave is tort!! so if your selling it on send me some pics, got a tort on my 62 cij reissue but i dont like it, its that modern rubbishy looking tort, and i want somthing more red, anyway i did get a vintage off white pearl scrachplate for my musicman which looks really smart and the same might look great on a white P, otherwise i,d agree with the gold adonised as i think they look great and im sure i saw one on here recently from "niceguyhomer"-good luck with the search - all the best - lee

  8. [quote name='The Bass Doc' post='472329' date='Apr 25 2009, 06:39 PM']I remember years ago when I knew Kenny as a player. Bumped into one time and he told me he had started doing bass lessons - I said that I looked forward to hearing the improvement in his playing in the future - HE didn't laugh either.[/quote] BRILLIANT!!!!!
  9. [quote name='woodenshirt' post='468265' date='Apr 21 2009, 11:33 AM']+1 I had one of these basses many moons ago (single p bass pickup)...... it was a stonkin' bass! Mart[/quote] +2 I had one too, the second bass i ever owned, it was al maple with a couple of rosewood stringers, with a single dimarzio p bass pickup, it had a really thin comfortable neck and sounded fantastic, and my dad bought it for me for £20 what a bargain!! i very foolishly traded it in for a sh*t hohner fretless, id have this off you but i like being married!!- bump - lee
  10. [quote name='6stringbassist' post='464563' date='Apr 16 2009, 11:39 PM']Thanks Lee !. Have you got your HD350 yet ?.[/quote] Hi Kev Yeah ive got it now, its been well used but sounds fantastic, i love it , it will stay with me till ive the cash for an epifani ul502 (which will prob be about 20 years ) not used it in anger yet, but its going to be very busy over the next three months, a bit strange not having a valve in the preamp!, but the sound isnt that far off the td650 i used to have
  11. [quote name='EssentialTension' post='466493' date='Apr 19 2009, 02:06 AM']Agreed, congrats to you Kev. But Lee I'm very grateful that you sold it to me!![/quote] And a more deserving chap, i couldnt have gone too really glad your giving it the use i didnt - cheers - lee
  12. May still consider trades for a decent 5 string fender marcus miller 5/Fender Jazz(US) /lakland skyline 5 /musicman stingray HH - WHY
  13. [quote name='OutToPlayJazz' post='465565' date='Apr 17 2009, 09:45 PM']Hey, remember we're all only a stone's throw from Electro Music in Doncaster, one of the best in the country. Go there and ask for Dave Ryan. He'll sort you out [/quote] +1 got my first ever warwick (streamer lx4) back in 98 and my first SWR rig from dave many moons ago, an absolute gent!! and a great shop - lee
  14. [quote name='warwickhunt' post='465354' date='Apr 17 2009, 06:31 PM']Cheers Lee. ... now if you'll just sell me that JV! [/quote] Ill leave it to you in my will
  15. [quote name='alexclaber' post='465152' date='Apr 17 2009, 03:43 PM']It's certainly a very appealing preamp! Unfortunately adding all that EQ whilst maintaining signal integrity is very expensive, hence the vast price difference between it and the U5 (and similarly between the U5 and Avalon's other preamps). I'm unfamiliar with the effects of output transformers on tone - I'm just aware that if they're not large enough they can form a bottleneck due to the magnetic fields from the two coils failing to couple fully at high power - and that with the high output impedance of a valve amp you have to have an output transformer to shift over to the low voltage high current drive that a speaker needs. But when you have a solidstate power stage you already have the right output impedance so Jonas must prefer what an output transformer does to the tone. I notice the amps are relatively low power (compared to other standalone power amps, they're not much different to typical bass heads) and thus wonder if he likes the sound of a transformer coupled solidstate power amp running beyond its linear zone?

  16. [quote name='LukeFRC' post='388921' date='Jan 22 2009, 08:23 PM']Hi guys A new streamer has a list price of over 3 grand. My blue one 1991 one was listed at £600 as that is what I paid for it, off of warwickhunt, six months ago. For the life of me I do not feel my one, or this one are worth as little as 600; I did feel it wrong however, to make a profit at the expense of someone else on this board and that is why my blue one was/is as cheap as it is. Thats my ethics or my stupidity and not what a early warwick stage one is worth! Warwickhunt is an honest, helpful and great guy to deal with. And he has some great basses for sale at good prices. Get your PM's to him now![/quote] +1 on everything you just said, your a gent!!!!
  17. I spent years using diffrent kinds of FX, a couple of incarnations of boss multifex to a big pedalboard stuffed with EBS effects, had a big phase(no pun intended) of putting together a dream pedalboard, cost me a fortune and i didnt use them an awful lot because my gigs didnt require them, so ive sold them all off, my last one (EBS MULTICOMP) is about to go making me completely effect less, im sur ill get more in the future coz i love em and if im really desperate my tascam bass trainer has them in if i fancy a mess about, im also for the first time in 14 years using an amp without a valve in it, amazing how this tone journey never ends, this site doesnt help either, always something better around the corner, enjoy your toys everyone - lee
  18. Thats really gorgeous Kev!! Starting to regret selling my WAV now i miss it, oh well ill have to get a CRM5 in the future - enjoy
  19. Just bought Lawries EBS HD350, dead cool guy, who has no luck with his vehicles flawless transaction, arrived when he said and fantastically packed, will deal with again. Thanks lawrie your a good un - lee
  20. [quote name='thebeat' post='456954' date='Apr 7 2009, 11:18 PM']Just bought my self another bass and have decided to move this one on. It's a parts bass consisting of the following: Fender American deluxe jazz body in Oly White with an Allparts block and bound maple neck, fitted with Hipshot tuners and a Hipshot D-tuner, Schaller strap locks also fitted. Pups are Seymour Duncans, bridge is Bad AssII with precut saddles. Also fitted with a Varitone control plate and side mounted jack...plate has switch to bypass varitone plate. Body itself was originally thru body stringing but i had to move the bridge back on the body to achieve intonation as the AmDlx jazz bass is fitted with a 22 fret neck and the Allparts neck is only 20 frets, this means that although the thru body holes can be seen on the back of the bass, they cant be used...ferrules are still in place so it all looks pretty tidy. Body itself is unmarked but neck has some marks on binding where it looks like someone has dressed the frets...the frets themselves have plenty of life left in them Asking £350 posted...payment by Bank Transfer only. Will post more detailed pics tomorrow. [/quote] My that precision is gorgeous!!!! hold on a minute bump for a great looking jazz!!! - lee
  21. Hi pete Off on hols on that date!!, spent years doing the holiday parks and pop bands and stuff, so will know most of your set, give me a shout if your stuck in the future- lee
  22. [quote name='The Bass Doc' post='461663' date='Apr 13 2009, 10:31 PM']OK this is me at age 60 (two years ago). The bass is my main gigger a 63 Precision (with added Di Marzio Jazz - sorry!) The bass has been playing the same length of time as me but as you will see is in slightly better condition than I am. The relicing is entirely natural in the case of the bass but in my case there was some deliberate damage caused by tabs & beer.[attachment=23746:Mouth_of_the_Tyne.jpg][/quote] Hey Howard That "relicing" must have cost you a fortune!!! (on you i mean not the bass ha ha!!) loving the bassface we all pull em!!!! great to see ya in action - lee
  23. While this is up, Rich is due some very overdue feedback from me, i bought his accugrooce tri 110 and was and am extremely happy with it, he is a gent and personally delivered the cab to my door, what a star!!!! he likes cold coffee which is a bit strange,(hey iced latte anyone!!!) but a great guy!!!, nice little player too will be one to watch - all the best mate sorry its so late - lee
