  1. have a bump from me too mate! yup,that's my lovely bass - in a good hands. wish you good luck with the sale! cheers!
  2. woooow!!! what a bass! not fan of PJ configuration tho, but this is a stunning bass! sadowsky quality is one of a kind. good luck with a sale!
  3. thank you for your comments chaps! it is a custom colour (Gold) I ordered from a pro luthier - the bass came to me with stripped original colour and has been coloured very poor in black. here's more pics of the "colour history"... bass came like that: neck heel with date: I gave it to the luthier, removed the neck pick up and left it with the standard P bass pick up configuration, also ordered a nice black paint - Roger Waters style: after few years I got idea of a Goldie,so here it is: thanx again!
  4. here's mine 1983. USA Made (Fullerton) Precision bass. it's light weight,around 4 kg (not sure if its swamp ash or alder) and obviously one piece maple neck. Di Marzio pick up, it's the old Di Marzio and from my experience,the best ones - very loud,very fat pick ups. I also upgraded the bass with bridge and pick up covers, aswell the Schaller vintage tuning keys ( but gladly will send the original ones ) DR LO Rider nickel strings and Fender de luxe gig bag. Asking 1100 euros which includes shipping on my cost via DHL (24-48 hours on your doorway,no questions asked) once money is on my bank account.
  5. and one from me 73jazz! what a BEAUTY!!!
  6. if you re interested...here's my 83' P bass ' conversion...also with DiMarzio (as someone mentioned - the Monster output pick ups!!!) hope you'll like it... it came with stripped original colour, and painted in black but badly..and with additional J pick up on the bridge i gave it to the luthier, ordering removal of a J pick up and a new black paint... after few years i got idea of a Goldie,and there it is... recently I bought a tort pickguard and a set of old rusty P bass pot caps... I just LOVE this thing,very light,comfy, with a really HUGE sound comin from DiMarzio. I had all kind of strings on it, from La Bella flats (jamerson set) was quite impressive and adorable,and now it's DR LO Riders Nickel - also a great ones! (sorry for hi jackin your thread bro and cheers!!!!)
  7. always wondered how those maple fretless P basses sounds... a good find anyway!
  8. there will be always "anything VS Fender" firestarters on duty
  9. [quote name='mcnach' post='1200845' date='Apr 15 2011, 02:35 PM']I think you didn't understand me. It's the position that I don't like. I like playing somewhat closer to the bridge. I like my hand position and especially the tension of teh strings at that spot. If the P-bass pickup were placed 5-6cm closer to the bridge, I'd use it as a thumbrest (just as I do on a Stingray)... but it wouldn't sound like a P-bass then [/quote] I understood prefectly,thats why I said that. when I place my thumb on the pup cover ( I dont talk about pick up itself,but the metal chrome vintage pick up cover), my fingers very naturally can play closer to the bridge or pup. (and no, I am not The Incredible Hulk.)
  10. funny you dont find pick up cover usefull for that matter. i use it like thumbrest - looks more natural and feel is good.
  11. cantbelievenoonewantsitfor1600 bump
  12. I dont know him personally and not really interested in his "cockness"...we'd be surprised how many of the famous and brilliant bass players are /were cocks (if this kinda language is allowed)
  13. [quote name='crez5150' post='1135350' date='Feb 21 2011, 01:38 PM']What a cock! I really can't stand the guy. I really don't rate him as a bassist either....[/quote] you're either in bad mood or far out to be rated as a bassist aswell
  14. beautiful bass and I adore Precision basses. ( 70's especially) I wonder why some people doesnt want to list the serial numbers? what gives?
  15. they used nitro till the end of '70s - along with poly too. '70s were rather crazy, they did all kind of things with finishes, they combinated parts from different years, had strange serials,everything. I had a white jazz from '77 neck dated '77 and body and electronics from '76, that bass were also nitro. I know photos looks like bass were painted with boat coating but it really should be original ( I say SHOULD be as I didn't bought the bass back in '78 ),original owner said it never been refinished and from what I see it looks that way.
  16. cheers for the comments! for Mr. Sherlock: it's original colour, it's nitro finished, worn up, so that's what probably give you ideas. also, some interesting jazz bass trades arrangements are welcome - Sadowsky or Lakland (USA series) !
  17. Here's for sale a great feeling and sounding and pretty light ash body Fender jazz bass (around 3.8 kilos) It's all original, pots, hardware,etc. Nitro finish,and yes - all worn up. Would be delivered via DHL. All questions please contact [email protected] or send me a PM. Price 1600 euros (dhl included!!!). Thank you for looking.
  18. [quote name='99ster' post='1114747' date='Feb 4 2011, 01:03 AM']+1 That is quite upsetting... [/quote] +1.....I have to take my medicine again....
  19. being a P bassman, have a BUMP from me! what would be chances for shiping the bass to Bosnia?
