  1. If I were to share photos of all the basses I have bought and sold on BC it would destroy the cloud, creating a singularity that would end the universe. So I think it best I don't
  2. Three way switch with options of: "Skuzz Serkit" (a passive fuzz); Open; and Tone Rolled Off
  3. In case anyone here is after one, BassBros have a 1973 Geddy-a-like just posted in website ... and it's under 9 pounds in weigh too. Looks v nice https://bassbros.co.uk/product/1973-fender-jazz-bass-7/
  4. On this day in 1976, Siouxsie and The Banshees played their first gig. Steven Severin playing a competition-striped Mustang bass. And yes that's Sid Vicious on drums, as well as MarcoPirroni on guitar.
  5. 1961 Jazz that was previously owned by Pino, for sale at French vintage guitar and bass dealer. Great patina/ageing (as opposed to relic'ing!) But €29,500 seems one heck of a price to pay https://www.mattsguitar.shop/fr/guitares-stock/fender-jazz-bass-1961-ex-pino-palladino
  6. 😀 precisely
  7. Pedant alert: The original quote by Harry Selfridge was "the customer is always right in matters of taste" which has a quite different meaning to the shortened quote
  8. Until she recently got a Fender Jazz custom made for her, Laura Lee of the wonderful Khruangbin only ever played a bog standard SX Jazz (the only mod was DiMarzio pickups I think). Seems like a heck of a lot of bass for the money
  9. The Sweetwater ad says 8lb 11 oz
  10. Someone also commissioned Jon Shuker to make a replica (without the relicing)
  11. Here's an old ad from the now sadly-no-more Bass Gear, so the bass was sold on. https://www.vintageandrare.com/product/Custom-Herbie-Flowers-Jazz-Replica-2011-38375
  12. "South East" surely narrows it a bit?
  13. Yep I owned it briefly. I loved the association and the work that went into it, but just didn't gel with it. I then sold it to @molan who had quite a bit of work done on the neck/board and body to make it more authentic. No idea what has happened to it since
  14. Two upcoming gigs for my goth/post punk lot The InSect. Coventry on Sat 28th Sept and Dublin Castle, London on 4th October
  15. Thanks Paul but I would be taking too much of a hit. I have already turned down an offer of £2,250 (although that included the gigbag). Appreciate the message though and if you are who I think you are, Neat Neat Neat!
  16. Des bought a Hofner bass from me and all was good. Prompt payment, friendly comms etc. Happy to recommend!
  17. Love a cream DiMarzio on a P bass. A real Martyn P Casey (of the Bad Seeds) vibe. Very nice score Karl
  18. and replied ON HOLD
  19. Looks like this is either not floating people's boat or its a bit beyond their current CoL affected budgets. So its a last bump from me before I let this advert drift slowly page after page into the further reaches of the BassChat for sale forum! Not withdrawing just in case someone searches for a bass like this at a later date
  20. Few more pics, showing the hinge that needs fixing on hard case and the bass with scratchplate on
  21. I paid about the same so am returning the favour to the BC community (albeit I added circa £150 of extras, including bag, strap and strings)
  22. Lovely 1987 Hofner 500/1 in good condition for age. Bought off the forum in March but I am finding the body shape and ergonomics a little uncomfortable. Since buying it, I have added a Hofner padded gigbag (it also comes with the original metal case that needs a lock fixing) and a vintage Hofner style strap. I have also put TI short scale flats on it. I took the scratchplate off for a Chris Wood-style vibe but it can be reinstalled in seconds. All of this (bass plus soft and hard cases and strap, plus two sets of spare strings - LaBella black nylon and Pyramid flats) for a bargain £899 posted. Or alternatively its £875 collected/meet up in public space in SW13 (not my home). I attach below the link to the previous sale which details the bridge improvement work.
  23. If anyone is potentially interested in this rarely-seen bass, please don't be shy and drop me a line. I could partly defray the cost via a p/x against a CIJ Mustang (not JMJ or US, I prefer a thin J neck width) which could serve as backup to my Wilcock????
  24. Another Clarky playing a jetglo 4000
