Bought a new Ibanez SRX430 and although I love it so far,the fact it doesn't have Ibanez on the headstock does bug me!! It has sdgr on it which makes it seem like its a poor man's Ibanez!! What is the deal with Ibanez these days? I know it's not a top of the range Ibanez but for £350 I'd expect them to put their name on it!! Anyone know what's going on with these soundgear basses and Ibanez? Right...... Rant over! Cheers

What's the nut width on this, please? Also, how deep is the neck front-to-back? - is it the same neck profile as the current MIA Precision?

Hi Steve,
the nut width is approx 43mm(according to Fender it's 41.3mm) and the neck is about 25mm front to back at the first fret. Not sure if it's the same as a MIA as I haven't any info on them. They are pretty chunky but then again I've been using an Ibanez of late so it does feel chunky compared to that! -

ARRRRRRRRRGH !!!!!!!!!!
This is so the wrong time for me to look at these pics this "for sale / in need of a good home" bass ... I've been bass-less since yesterday and will be until tomorrow and I'm WEAK.
Just imagine how perfect this P would look with this J ...

Mmmmmmm, very tasty! -
Can anyone recommend someone to look at my amp in the Leicester or surrounding area? Got to a gig yesterday and my amp was knackered when I powered up. Hardly any sound coming out of it?!?!? Cheers.

Right! it's up for sale [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/180474-fender-highway-one-precision-bass-l400/"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/180474-fender-highway-one-precision-bass-l400/[/url] -
more pics available but for reason I've been informed I've used up my quota of data allowance or something like that????

Only selling this as I needed a sunburst one for a tribute band otherwise I would have kept it as it plays soooo well and has a lovely neck on it. It was made at the corona plant 2007/2008 according to a fender serial dater website and is in flat black with a tort scratchplate( I still have the original white one that was on there from new. It is in great condition with the exception of a couple of tiny dings that I have pictured(the coin in the pic is a 5p piece) and has Fender straplocks fitted( again I have the original strap pins) I am including the gator case with it and fender cloth. The case was at some point leant up a radiator so it has a weird misshapen bit on one side where it melted!!! (no guitarn was in the case at the time!) These HW1's really are a cracking bass and well made unlike the MIM i initially went for but it was terrible build quality( waits for the flood of abuse for slating the MIM hehe!) Looking for £400 collected or can arrange courier for approx another tenner. cheers.

I like that - very much, big time, quite a large amount, a LOT
.
That would look so nice as a partner in crime to my HW One Jazz in flat black ...

I didn't know they did the flat black in the jazz base. You oughtta buy my p bass to keep it company the ! -

Will watch replies with interest as I've got a HW One Jazz and love it. If I consider (well more of a when I consider) a P bass, will def look at the HW One P's.
Deb
Any chance of a pic of your HW One P?

will have to take a decent pic of it, its in flat black with a tort scratchplate but I still have the original white one. Probably gonna sell it to get a sunburst one as I need one for a tribute band I'm in. -
well I've got the flat black one in my profile pic but need a sunburst one for a tribute band so I was looking to sell mine but didn't want to get a CIJ if they were not as good quality as the highway as I personally rate the highway one.
-
Anyone had either or both of these? I've got a highway one precision but seen a nice sunburst CIJ which I might go for and wondered if the CIJ's are as good build or better than the highway one? Cheers.

How do you know that it's MIJ, the seller tell you? It's not stated in the ad.
If 'MPN' in the ad refers to the serial number, a 'T' followed by 6 digits would be right for a MIJ from 1994-1995.
[/quote]
The seller told me. I left it in the end because I asked for more pics and all he sent was blown up shots of the same pic on ebay!!!! -
cheers, I'm awaiting more pics as they were tiny and terrible quality so I was a bit hesitant as the bass is difficult to see any distinguishing marks! thanks for the replies.
-
........ When did they cease production? looking at one and not sure if it's the real deal!!! thanks

you defo need more better pics, esp some front & rear headstock shots looks nice though! I promise not to bid 
[/quote]
hehe! bid away if you want, without better pics I'm a bit dubious as you would expect someone selling a fender to have a few close ups and headstock pics! -
cheers, thanks for posting the link. poor pics considering it's a MIJ.

looking at a fender p on ebay thats ending later but can't make my mind up if it's a genuine one or not as the seller has only taken a couple of pictures. apparently its a MIJ one. Is there a fender expert on here that might be able to identify it as genuine? cheers. can't get on ebay at work to put a link up but the item number is 271003344261. thanks in advance for any advice.

Cheers guys, feel better already! It just seemed a bit odd that they only put their name in very small letters under the sdgr logo like fender do with squier!
