I have a Vintage Modified Fretless Jazz and a standard series P bass special and they are both wonderful instruments and a joy to play

and this one [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_hbb1975_na.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_hbb1975_na.htm[/url]



and it comes with nice bits you can sell, I will buy the pickups off you

Every cheap Basswood body bass I have played has left me severely dissapointed, tone is always off and the low density of the wood makes them feel odd, but these are my opinions. I think you will struggle to find any concise review on them just a few youtube videos of the shop demoing them.


At that price though just take a punt, even just for the neck

Head stock is the right shape Law suit much! looks like a nice little thing, basswood body is not desireable though, especially at this low end of the scale, tone will no doubt be lacking but without any reviews it is just hearsay

If you are after a nice Full maple necked bass then the Tony Butler Vintage V4 signature is your best bet but they are a P-Bass

is the rocktile even maple? got any links? the one on amazon is rosewood Edit. Both have maple necks with rosewood fret boards

[url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_jb_75_sb_vintage_serie.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_jb_75_sb_vintage_serie.htm[/url] one of these is a far better bet and comes with alnico wilkinson pickups as standard and cheaper then the rocktile

IN
Squier P bass special
Squier Fretless Vintage Modified Jazz bass
Vintage V4 Tony Butler signature series

Out
Westfield Small body bass
Hohner Marlin Jazz bass
Vintage Vj74 Jazz bass

Well I just recieved it....... First time playing a fretless and wow! gotta be tight with that intonation or it is all over the shop! Anyone have any idea how I can get that paul simon graceland bass tone?

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkDaWtT8ikU[/media] Incredible track, Cassius rock! And the video is something special

It was me who won it


Chuffed to bits in all honesty as I have been on the hunt for a fretless for the last few weeks

Where are you located? Fancy a swap for two six month old marshall mb30 bass combos?

[url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_hbb1975_na.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_hbb1975_na.htm[/url] email them and ask how neck pickup is routed.

[url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_jb_75_sb_vintage_serie.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_jb_75_sb_vintage_serie.htm[/url] one of these is a better bet and comes with alnico Wikinson pickups as standard which are around £55 to buy on there own.

Sold.

as Above I have an unknown jazz bass body for sale, it has a fair few marks etc so ideally would be suitable for a project for someone.

I am after £25 delivered for this.


Many thanks Lucas

Ok I have no need for the other parts so will give it a miss

will you sell the jazz pickup seprately? very interested cheers

The jb75 bass comes with daddario xl strings and wilkinson alnico vintage pickups as standard and the bridge has brass saddles and looks identical to the wilkinson unit so surely that bass is the bargain of the century? I am tempted to get one

This is 2013 - not 1913.

And therein lies the problem

2 gorgeous basses


It does look like the control plate on the jazz does not line up with the scratch plate though? Either way I want them both

Squier p bass special pj and fender rumble 25 watt amp for your bass?

What about a cort gb74 in lake placid blue for your vintage bass plus £100 my way?

Fancy a swap for a Fender Squier P-Bass special and a Fender Rumble 25 watt bass amp for your Vintage?
