  1. * Cough * this series was announced in October 2022 and has been discussed on BC since .... https://www.premierguitar.com/gear/fender-american-vintage-ii
  2. Also very good with double bass
  3. Tough audience. Final price drop to £999 plus post if needed. I have never seen an AVRI priced this low.
  4. Bump for the lowest price AVRI bass available anywhere (Reverb, eBay,etc). Any interest folks?
  5. Nice Fullerton era 62RI Precision at Andy Baxter's. £3k price seems a bit rich but what do I know, vintage Fender prices seem to have gone up hugely in past year. https://www.andybaxterbass.com/products/1983-fender-precision-bass-fullerton-vintage-58
  6. Cut to £1050 plus delivery at cost. Doubt you will see an AVRI 62J any cheaper
  7. Try me with a near offer
  8. Its really quite muddy, no matter the tone setting, in my view. I am hugely biased as a Serek owner but I think the Midwestern both looks better and sounds much more defined
  9. Reminds me of Gibson DC Junior bass in body shape and pickup placement
  10. I had front row seat at Hammersmith Odeon on British Steel tour. Touched Rob's leather boot ... oooo err
  11. For full disclosure,the truss rod nut is quite recessed. However, it turns fine as far as I can tell. Its currently nearly maxed anticlockwise due to low tension TI Flats (I tightened it clockwise to check it turns and then returned it back to close-to-max anticlockwise)
  12. Last price adjustment before it goes back in case: £1350 now including UK delivery or £1325 collected
  13. For a reasonable price too https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/195594111499?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=ydtvbm3ot0o&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=eqlPJw_SSty&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  14. Good times (Rappers Delight) also for me
  15. This is what I do. I have also seen recommendations for carefully bending each string along the length over your fingers, which presumably stretches and loosens the windings - although I would be nervous about causing damage
  16. Sign of the times. Despite being the lowest priced AVRI 62 Jazz I have seen on eBay and fully £600 (33%) cheaper than the other listed AVRI 62 Jazz, it didn't sell. Oh well. That means its still available to you lovely BC folks!
  17. Thanks Andy. Its also on eBay (at a price that reflects eBay fees). The auction finishes this evening and there's 21 watchers. I would rather this stayed in the BC community, however, as its a lovely bass in all respects bar (for me) the weight!
  18. Reopened and price cut to £1350 plus delivery cost. Sorry, no trades
  19. Alternatively, you could get the valve-driven sound you love at acceptable home listening levels by using an attenuator such as this: https://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/Bugera-Power-Soak-Passive-100-Watt-Guitar-Amp-Power-Attenuator/223F?origin=product-ads&gclid=CjwKCAiAlp2fBhBPEiwA2Q10D7u0c0IBc8lAjvItdK08jewJE7cjyh0oM2aMX6xex8av9y-wQ4Ih3BoCUrAQAvD_BwE
  20. Recently acquired on the forum. Fabulously mojo'd, believed to be all-original AVRI 62 Jazz. Plays beautifully (with nicely worn in TI Jazz Flats), looks cool AF. I love everything about this bass apart from the weight. Due to a miscommunification (copyright George W Bush), it comes in at 10.18 pounds rather than the sub 9 pounds I had understood. Unfortunately my back cannot tolerate >9 pounds. Comes in generic hard case. Collection SW London, south of Hammersmith Bridge, or deliver within UK for £30. Asking what it owes me, a bargainaceous £1130. Edit: £999 plus post.
  21. Agree. There is one FS on BassChat right now for over £10k - not going to diss the guy, I wish him well with his sale, even though I last sold a Wal fretless only 4/5 years ago for £3k. Its the market
  22. I haven't heard back from Also Eden chap so assume he also drew a blank
