Possibly interested.. Do you have any sound samples or videos or anything? Got a 5 string 97 American Jazz I'd consider trading

Awesome, I'll inbox you now!

Are you looking for trades?

Interested in trades?

Just had another wiring harness from John. As usual, amazing work and brilliant craftsmanship. Works like a charm. Thanks again!

Soon as I get paid, this is mine!

If only I could afford it!

Oh my god!
What a sexy bass that is!

Haha, that's fine mate.
The jazz does have 4, yeah. So it won't fit

Although I am in the process of building a 5 string so might be back in touch..

Probably will be. I'm looking into having a ramp made, so I'll let you know if it fixes it!

Looks like the BadAss has 6?

I suppose it could be, yeah. I'm really quite a heavy-handed player too, so maybe so.
I'll try a make-shift ramp in there for now and see if it helps, thanks!

Recently I've been trying to change my right-hand technique and it's proving to be a right headache!

Previously, I'd been playing floating thumb and moving my whole hand up and down the strings as I changed the string I was playing - since I'd always been playing a 6 string it was the easiest way I found to play at speed (with my ramp, anyway). Now I'm hardly playing 6ers, I'm back onto my jazz bass and I've found that technique produces very inconsistent notes and its very hard to incorporate dynamics.
As well as this, 90% of the players that inspire me all play fixed thumb, so there must be some reason behind it!

So my question is, does anyone have any tips for me at all? I'm finding it really hard to adjust, it's like learning to play bass all over again!
Do I just stick at scales with a metronome or try and go straight into songs? Are there any specific exercises that will help?

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Now sold.

Will it fit directly onto an American Fender Jazz 5 then without having to drill holes?

Interested in trades kind of bump

Hey,

A bit of a weird one, but does anyone know or have the music to the paddington bear theme tune? We we're challenged to rock it up a little bit but can't find the music to start with! Haha.

Here's the song: http://www.televisiontunes.com/Paddington_Bear.html

Even a key would help!

Cheers!
Mike

bumping!
