    Thanks Luke. The grain looks just like Ash and the sound is spot on too for Ash. I thought Sen was a variety of Ash? Worth less? But then less is more, no? Cheers

    [attachment=155565:P1060031.JPG] I really like the old original first series JV Basses, so much so I just bought my second '57 Reissue earlier today. Greedy, but hey ho, the new laptop will have to wait and I'll just keep on banging my current laptop's screen till it works, because these basses are reasonably rare. The first series JV's are the ones with the large Fender logo and small Squier logo, and were only made for 2-3 months. But what I love best of all, is the ash bodies they used on these first few (later changing to Alder/Basswood). Ash body and maple neck, mmmm.... ([b]edit[/b]: Cheers Luke for the info, turns out Sen isn's a true ash wood, still sounds lovely though with lots of thump!) The other Squier JVs are also great basses and I've owned some lovely ones, but these first series basses just seem to have that bit extra in the wood/tone department. I'm a proud owner of an original 1966 Precision, and I've had all sorts of vintage and high end basses, yet I'm still astounded at how good these basses are, the sound and feel are just wonderful. I'm not saying that these are 'better than the US ones' or 'Custom Shop quality' etc, just that they are sweet basses. I'd love to hear the thoughts of other proud owners or people who have played/owned these in the past. Cheers

    [quote name='0353203' timestamp='1389956082' post='2339859'] Thanks Daniel - yes, its the white primer you can see there. [/quote] She sure is a beauty mate, some lucky BC'er is going to get some serious bang for their buck with this bass! GLWTS

    Withdrawn as a bass purchase fell through (and because its a great bass that really deserves to stay!)

    [quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1389823872' post='2338433'] Just interested to know what's going on with the whitish patch above the strap button. Is that on top of the finish, worn through to primer, or what? [/quote] Fender did use white primer in the late 60's

    Replied via PM. Thanks.

    [quote name='Prime_BASS' timestamp='1387277712' post='2310054'] What a bummer. I suggest you donate to a gigging fellow like myself ;-) Such a shame that Modulus don't seem to be around anymore. [/quote] Donate, no. Part exchange, maybe. How about this bass for your spine? Then again, not sure about that one myself.... This pics don's show the sparkle unfortunately, when a light is on it's dazzling

    Made in 2004, this is a 50th Anniversary Stratocaster Zippo, made in the USA. It's never been opened or played, (the orange sealing sticker on the back has never been removed), but I'm sure it sounds great, just like a USA zippo should! It's set up great, has no fret wear, no marks and no buzzing on the neck. Just needs some fuel to get your fire burning. There were only 1000 of these made, this one is 255 of 1000.

    [quote name='Rik (ESA)' timestamp='1385748115' post='2291854'] Arghhhh exactly what I'm after but I'm nervous about the on/off issue! Great price btw. [/quote] If it helps, it's been doing it for at least 10 years! Sometimes it just needs a few presses to get it going (EDIT:when turned on for the first time), then it's fine. I understand though

    Hey Pal, have a 'what a sexy bass' type bump on me

    [quote name='umcoo' timestamp='1385745109' post='2291811'] heck, that's a billy bargain [/quote] Cheers for that I've had great mileage out of this pedal so I'm happy to let it go for a nice price. (hopefully to someone who really wants one but can't stump up £200). I'm after a MXR Micro Amp to use at home when I swap between basses in my headphone set up, this should go towards it nicely!

    £75 including secure post. (UK only). I've been procrastinating over this for a while, it's been a faithful bit of kit but has been sitting in a drawer for a few years now as I've stopped playing live. This is due to an injury so I won't be needing it again. I got this around 10-12 years ago, it's well used but every time I plug it in it works and sounds great. Only one thing to mention, (though I'm not sure if it's a SansAmp thing?) is that, since I've had it, when the pedal is first powered up, the switch may take 2/3 hits to turn it on. (though this does not always happen). But when it's then turned on, it switches between on and off with no issues. They are around £199 new, I hope £75 posted is fair.

    Boil them in washing up liquid for 20 mins, it gets the dirt and grease out. But be careful as the water level rises if you don't simmer!
