  3. Nice score Rob, looks the business
  4. @GCYPbass Guven bought my Fender Jazz, fast payment and great comms all the way and a real gentleman to deal with, a credit to Basschat..
  5. I had one and regret selling it but these are well made Basses, for your info One thing is for sure, their's nothing 'plain Jane' about these guitars. For those of you who don't know about "Foto-Flame" Fenders, they are unique. These Fenders are made of basswood and have a maple or alder cap. Whatever folks think, these Japanese Fenders were extremely well made at the Fuji-gen Plant. I traded emails with a few Foto-Flame owners, and they said they would never sell them. Made in Japan in 1994-95, the finish is a photographic film re-creation of wood flame (thus the name Foto) which is laminated on the body and neck. According to Jeff at xhefri's Guitars, Fender worked in connection with some photographic corporation. "I have heard both Polaroid and Kodak, but most likely Fuji"
  6. Steve bought my bitsa Precision bass, good prompt payment and a smooth and pleasant transanction all the way, Lovely bloke to deal with Thanks Steve
  7. Hi Guys, Here we have my BB414 in Metallic Orange In great condition with only 1 tiny chip at the back above the neck screws Plenty of life in the frets Selling off some of my gear to fund a very expensive recent purchase and price is firm Price includes postage to UK addresses
  8. Im sure that the case came later than the bass but has not seen very much road life and in great condition
  9. Where is that gig again 🤔 you may need a minder
  10. Here we have a a Precision that I have put togeather. I bought the body off a fellow Basschatter, here is his description on the body which is from Guitar build I bought this used, and the original description said: "Hand finished in nitro it has been bleached with Oxalic acid then aniline dyed yellow under the sealer coat as per older 50’s/60’s factory process to give a strong yellow centre. Sunburst then applied over sealer coat with three coats of clear gloss and buffed" There is some (lovely) Relicing - see photos. The finish will become even more beautiful as it continues to age naturally. I have installed new EMG Geezer Butler signature pickups The pickguard I also got off here, its from WD music The tuners on the neck are Gotoh and fitted the existing holes perfectly The neck I have had this neck for some time and it came on a precision body which I have used for a project. The neck is the star here, when I got it the headstock logo had been badly scraped and and was in a terrible mess so I sanded down and applied a Fender logo and lacquered. Now i have had many basses over the many years that I have played and Im pretty sure that this one is an early eighties and possibly from a SQ as it has the same feel and fit as a SQ precision that I once owned and definately Japanese, truss rod at the heel, nice nut and board. You know that a neck is good the moment you put your hand on it and this one has that feel, apart from the headstock logo the rest of the neck is perfect. Maybe somebody who looks at this might be better informed than me but IMHO its good. Very little fret wear and truss rod turns both ways In total this has cost me more than the asking price but Im sure you wont be dissapointed. Any questions please fire away
  11. I think I'll pass on that one 🙄
  12. Putting the feelers out for this neck, I have been offered a deal on the body so I will part with it if I get a buyer for the neck Originally it was fretless and was professionally fretted some years ago so plenty of life in them Truss rod turns both ways and tuners are like new I have left it with my trusted Luthier to have dot markers installed Price to include postage to UK addresses
