  2. [quote name='lee650' timestamp='1336686855' post='1649663'] Yep my dream jazz too!! If it were a year younger it would be my birth year jazz I always promised myself, just AWESOME!!!! [/quote] I can get my stencil kit out & change the date to '74 if you want Lee
  3. Ah Donny what are you doing to me eh? I often think I'd like a nice old Ricky kicking around for those days when i want to grab a pick & play old Jam & Yes songs
  4. Just traded basses with Ryan & I really have to say he couldn't have been friendlier and more helpful. Definitely someone to trust if you are thinking about buying from, or selling to, him
  5. Previous trades now off - anyone got anything they want to trade or maybe make me an offer on the price
  6. And open for trades - had a couple of offers that I'm seriously thinking about but always happy to look at new alternatives
  7. [quote name='CBbass' timestamp='1336269609' post='1643427'] That is my dream Jazz bass. Only natural and even black block bass which has ever appealed to me. Good luck with your ++AWESOME++ sale! [/quote] Although not totally awesome, it is actually a great sounding bass
  8. You need a boring old Fender Jazz, one of those 'everyday' ones that's been kicking around for 40 years or so and not really very desirable. . .
  9. Given the mediocre state of this bass, and that it has lots of old parts on it, I'm thinking of putting the price up by a few hundred quid. . .
  10. molan

    SOLD.

    Is that a refin on a stripped body? Also, is pickguard original?
  11. Great little mixer - really handy to have the phono inputs
  12. A pro friend of mine ran a pretty exhaustive set of tests on an AG500, TH500 a pair of GS cabs and a pair of SL's The TH/SL combination won the day and on the side by side test the SL's were noticeably louder. He was testing up against a very hard hitting pro drummer as well.
  13. [quote name='bubinga5' timestamp='1336151878' post='1641860'] i thought this was my old bass for a second... those Redeemer circuits are great.... [/quote] I think it was Great bass, my favourite of any recent Fender I've played!
  14. Excellent - bring on the vol au vonts
  15. [quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1336108240' post='1640936'] Three questions please: Is this a bargain, can I trust you, and will I ever get that quality J bass for that money again? [/quote] No, maybe & yes
  16. Truly horrible
  17. I know there's a lot of AWESOME old Fenders around at the moment but I'm afraid this is really an everyday, really quite uninteresting, Fender Jazz from 1973. To the best of my knowledge it's all original - it currently has a Badass bridge fitted which is, of course, totally AWSOME, but unfortunately it also comes with an original '73 bridge. Finish is a very dull natural with no AWSOME additions. It's obviously been well played but I'm sure that really reduces its worth as all those people that gigged it over its limited 39 year life probably just thought it was a decent player but not very AWSOME at all. It's a typical old Fender that oozes personality and a hefty girth of just over 10lbs. Although there's nothing AWESOME about the weight I have to assume that all those people that gigged it thought it was worth it. Tough to tell if pickups are original - local luthier seems to think they are AWSOME and are old Fender originals but what does he know eh? Comes with an original '70's hard case which looks rather nice and is very serviceable but probably not even remotely AWESOME. . . Yours for just £1,850

    SOLD.

    AWESOME headstock. Is the rest of the bass just as AWESOME? Sounds like AWESOME aftermarket pickups and AWESOME aftermarket bridge with AWESOME routing in the body to make it work.
  19. [quote name='Max Normal' timestamp='1335968194' post='1638785'] I paid £650.00 for mine s/h. Wouldn't sell it though. [/quote] Not for a US one though? IMHO the US Laklands are much nicer than the Korean made ones
  20. [quote name='2x18' timestamp='1335813597' post='1636521'] Its in the heading ---1750 euro Will. [/quote] Not if you're viewing the mobile version
  21. [quote name='louisthebass' timestamp='1335796837' post='1636141'] Popped in there today - very nice shop indeed and met Vic - what a thoroughly nice bloke. And I bought an Aggie 500 TH . [/quote] Excellent - Vic is indeed a very bloke. I was out & about today & nearly popped in too but ran out of time in the end I bought my TH500 from BassGear & really like it, such a great little head. Works really well with the Sl112 cabs too
  22. It's 'Isolated Bass Week' over on All Bass No Treble: http://www.notreble.com/buzz/tag/isolated-bass-week/
  23. Apologies if this has been posted before (I did a quick search & didn't spot it). Worth listening to again though if it has been posted http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=GRjAgl1dQBk
  24. http://www.notreble.com/buzz/2012/04/26/stories-behind-the-songs-jerry-jemmott/ Great player, real 'musician's' musician
  25. Love Zappa & managed to see him twice (on consecutive nights). Fantastic live & operated the band like a true conductor with loads of improvisational sections. The band had Vinnie Colaiuta on drums, Warren Cuccurullo on guitar and Arthur Barrow on bass. Fave albums for me are Sheik Yerbouti, One Size Fits All, Apostrophe & Overnite Sensation. In fact my first wife and I had our first dance to "I Have Been in You" from Sheik Y, lol: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWJZwAOunbM&feature=related[/media] This was swiftly followed by "Jewish Princess" from the same album (she was Jewish, and, especially in later years, something of a 'princess', lol).
