[quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1401905554' post='2468194'] Always been tempted to try one of these. How are they with a Jazz bass? [/quote] Sounds good with my Silver Series. I only have a 10" extension cab here but you are welcome to come and try and perhaps bring your own cab. I'm in Blackburn Lancs bb22sh.

[quote name='krispn' timestamp='1401870205' post='2467591'] The nut width on these is 1.59 whereas the standard P is 1.62 so not a lot in it in terms of the nut width but these have a different neck to the standard p. If you like a telebass this one is a winner - I was the owner before Damon and got the black and tort plat made to mimic the Lakland 51p bass plate - no we fancy curls just a straight cut running past the P p/up. These are really good solid P basses and you wouldn't know the green day connection as they have tastefully chosen not to whack tacky inlays etc on it. A great addition to anyone arsenal! [/quote] Thanks for the input Krispn.

[quote name='cloudburst' timestamp='1401835124' post='2467451'] Wonder how easy it would be to find a luthier to refinish this neck in black/lacquer with a nice silver Fender Tele Bass Special logo. Hmm. I think I'm based too far North for that. CB [/quote] I've contacted The Bass Doc to see if he can help. Will post his reply.

Hi Damon. thanks for the input. I would say its very similar to my 79 in depth.

[quote name='cloudburst' timestamp='1401747198' post='2466563'] Here's an offer for you... - source a full width neck with rosewood board and tele head - have your luthier resist the urge to reshape - and have him instead paint the rear and headstock black, apply a silver logo, and then lacquer I'll give you a good price for this Duff McDirnt Cloudburst Tele Bass Special. You can even keep the tort plate and sell to someone else :-) CB [/quote] Umm, that sounds like a quest!

[quote name='cloudburst' timestamp='1401729706' post='2466277'] I'd have taken this off your hands had it not been for the neck reshaping. Very nice. And has given me some ideas. CB [/quote] The necks are quite thick originally. I think the previous owner had it re-shaped as he doesn't have very big hands. Its still nice though and the work has been done well.

I've only just got this but it didn't take too long to discover that its far too heavy for me... so its up for sale or trade. Its a Mike Dirnt signature but the only marking to show its affiliation is a small star on the neckplate. It was made in around 2006 and is in very good condition for its years. It has an added SD Jazz pickup and a stacked volume control installed to accommodate the extra pup. It also has had a neck re-shape done at PMT in Manchester to make it slimmer. You can see the difference in colour on the photo's where the reshape has ended at the headstock and at the heel. It has a great tonal variety due to the extra pup and sustains very well due to its weight and the Badass 2 bridge. Two pickguards included (the black one is just sat on in the photo's). Collection from BB22SH or you can arrange a courier. I can add a hard case for another £20 if you want it shipping to be extra safe. I head towards the South Lakes frequently so could possibly meet up/deliver. May trade for a lighter P or Jazz bass. Maybe Telecaster or Les Paul guitar, Orange SP212 Or whatever you have?

Withdrawn for now. i sounds too good with a P bass! Sorry to anyone who has shown interest. Sounds great and everything operates as it should. No issues as far as I'm aware. Cosmetically in very good condition. One of the metal bits on the zip on the case has come off but the zip works fine. There's no velcro bit for the handle included. Trade value £295 Collect from BB22SH or you could arrange a courier. Any questions just ask...

Aye! Well not exactly a massage parlour! The Mrs does all the holistic stuff. I probably forgot to mention that the bass will smell nice too! Cheers
