  1. I'm not suggesting it's not a genuine pre-CBS but you can find Bravewoods with Brazilian Rosewood fingerboards.
  2. Can you stick up a photo of your Jazz?
  3. [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1452337250' post='2948957'] I`m like this with Stingrays, love them when others play them but they just don`t sound right when I play them. Similarl with Jazzes though they are growing on me, I just want to find one that I really gel with. [/quote] Ditto with Precisions. I LOVE the way they look and like the sound when I hear some other people playing them but I can't get used to not having a bridge pickup whenever I play one.

    SOLD

    Ah I wish I had the money to buy this! I've always loved the OW/RW combination - GLWTS.
  5. Are you looking at a brand new MIM? If yes, I'd recommend at least considering a second hand US Standard.
  6. Check out this Ken Smith... not sure about that at all!
  7. Beautiful looking bass. I have the exact same colour combination myself with both my 1964 and 2013
  8. Colour/fingerboard combo? Looking forward to seeing the pictures!
  9. I'd agree with a 1 in 3 hit rate on the American Standard Fenders - maybe even 1 in 4 or 5. When you do find a good one though, they're really, really great. For your budget you could wait and get a US Standard from someone on here. While pretty rare, they do occasionally come up and sell at your kind of budget. Plus if you go second hand and you got bored with whatever you bought and wanted to sell it, you'd more or less get your money back.
  10. So would you go for a Superlux E205 over a Shure SM57 for home recording?
  11. Find a good playing jazz bass, install a good pre-amp, a decent set of pick-ups and you're there really. So much of the sound is in people's fingers anyway.
  12. I currently record direct into my Scarlet 2i2 but I want to incorporate my cab too. Any of you folks got some strong recommendations when it comes to choosing a microphone?
  13. Not associated with the seller but this will set you back about £100ish more than a new Mexican. Looks awesome - perfect colour combo as well in my opinion. http://basschat.co.uk/topic/274283-2010-fender-american-standard-p-bass-olympic-white-l675/page__pid__2935757#entry2935757
  14. I think this would have sold if it wasn't December. Amazing price!
  15. I'm not associated with the seller but this seems to be a bargain at £[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]575[/font][/color]. http://basschat.co.uk/topic/272196-fender-usa-standard-precision/
  16. I'd have one if given to me But I've owned two myself and wouldn't bother again. They look awesome though - I wish I could get along with them.
  17. Go try a few dude and don't worry about what anyone else says or thinks. If you find one you like, go for it!
