Very nice! New bridge is an upgrade as the originals tended to crack & bend in half! Just stick a couple of black speed knobs on it & it'll be sorted.
I do like mine but never really play it as the single P unit doesn't get the sound I want too easily. Should I flog it?

i think you may regret it if you do sell it, as dude said they are underated although if you are not use it much and dont need it as a spare it might be worth selling if you can find a buyer who will also look after it too.
with regards to my track 2 and the knobs yeah they are easily changed but in no rush to do that and just to confirm did they come with the little knob pointers under the knobs or were these added on? -
oh i just love the look of them with the symmetrical body shape and lovely finish and chrome accessories, im just glad they both play very well too
-
Well after recently getting a Westbury Track 4 i thought it would be nice to have a track 2 to go with ti and see how they both compare.
Well the track 2 is as nice as i was hoping (although a few more marks on the body) and has the benefit of being a bit lighter as the body is flat unlike the curved body of the track 4 and also that the neck on the track 2 is bolt on aswell. the necks are the same thickness which are nice and easy to play although not the thinnest and the pick ups are also dimarzio and give a good sound and tone but the twin pick ups and their positioning on the track 4 gives it just a bit better growl.
The bridge has been replaced on it and it doesnt have the original knobs (the controls are volume, tone and series/parallel switch ) but it all works and plays well and is also made in 1980
Heres a few pics too,

i think everyone is missing the obvious reason for the post, and you have put up the wrong pictures too
tell us more about the aussie barmaids including their pictures please. -
what strings are you using, maybe you could try different strings like flatwounds as this is one of the reasons i prefer flats as they are smoother

oh it comes with a pee wee amp too -
luckily it wasnt a jazz bass
-
why does the guitarist feel prouder for having a larger one for once? does he only have a small one and anyway its what you do with it that counts, as well as fingering technique too of course
-
there is another track 2 on ebay at the moment which i was half tempted to but the track 4 took more of my fancy
-
yep they are dimarzio pick ups and it plays very nicely neck isnt too wide nor sticky and balances nicely on my leg while playing
-
yep i went out and got me one and not in too bad condition just the usual paint chips and light scratches but all in all in good condition with original pick ups and original knobs i do believe. the pick guard is actually tortoise but has been painted over in black but the paint is coming off which gives a good effect at the moment.
still got the original , original shop sticker on it but alas that shop is no more after a quick google search its now a car wash place
-
heres mine a dean j bass still in good condition and only a few years old and only a few months use as then i got an ibanez sr300
-
looks like the assassins creed bloke
-
oh we need pictures of it now
-
and another random though slightly related, do really fat people need bigger coffins and bigger graves or do thet just get squeezed into normal size ones?
-
would a radio controlled car/transporter not be easier, like a mini optimus prime pulling the cab and equipment along
or even a customised pallet loader -

I happen to know the seller needs the money urgently to repair his Mercury Sable car. Ask me how I know!
[/quote]
how do you know? -
maybe ask about other ibanez's that they may be able to get in for you like the afb200bs
http://www.pmtonline.co.uk/ibanez-afb200bs-artcore-semi-acoustic-4-string-brown-sunburst-bass.html
should still have the fingerability as the sr range but with a more retro look with picks to rest fringers on and still be light too -
no there isnt i just been looking just to make sure
-
yes that is true, i gather your refering to the one that was sold on ebay, there isnt one on there now is there?
-
yes i would say that they are also surprisingly louder than expected. i do like it all being compact perhaps with the controls being more forward but it depends on where you have the amp.
ive not used the looper function so cant say how good it is but i expect it to be the same as any other looper.
are you looking at getting one i may be persudaded to sell mine
headphone amp

ive had a voxamp before but that was dire. although this looks very basic but loks very neat and tidy and can clip to your strap keeping it out of the way and not too expensive either.
what are your thoughts or suggestions for something simlar.
