Yeah man, bitsa Jazz, love it!

Anyhow Precision bitsa is now gone, thanks for interest folks

I guess yeah. £250 posted with gig bag sound reasonable?

Need a 5 string for a new project. Anything considered, preference to jazz passive types.

So onto my trade bait, my home assembled Bitsa P, well i think its a rather decent spec which cost me around the £300 mark to do, i guess i value it somewhere around there ish:[list]
[*]Nice light relic body, nothing scary! Not sure of origin, think its alder but not 100%...certainly not ply crap.
[*]Might mighty, Lic by Fender maple neck with 70's decal added by the supplier, lightly varnished...was planning to get an aged tint but not got around to it.
[*]Proper 70's cream Dimarzio pick up with adjustable pole pieces...good piece of proper vintage kit this.
[*]Some vintage wiring loom from B/C's genius Kiogon with some old school russian capacitor thing, gives good tone.
[*]Aged P knobs (dull crome)
[*]Quality Schaller tuners.
[*]Decent bridge, not sure of origin.
[*]Fender neck plate.

This is a great players Precision bass and plays lovely with low action. I've obviously gone for a 70's replica ish look bar the change of better pick up, which is actually from the 70's. There was a small gap in the neck pocket on assembly which i shimmed with card, nothing to drastic but it keeps it tight. I will miss this as we have bonded quite well but admittedly I tend to play my thinner neck 4 string basses these days. However i needs a 5 string for some heavy dub coming up!

Obviously its the right one in the pic below.
There are some more detailed pics in this link but when it had a previous pick up prior to the now fitted cream Dimarzio. [url="https://plus.google.com/photos/118380618731756986255/albums/5710228643771424529?authkey=CLyxiMrhxreRUA"]https://plus.google....=CLyxiMrhxreRUA[/url]

Can send via courier.

Done & good luck

What would i do??? Call the A team!!! ....i'll get my coat ...although on a serious note my band is in a similar situation. Once deps starting coming along though the main culprit is quick to want to be back in the driving seat

You wanna bad riddim fe mi woman - check English Girl by Sister Audrey/ Mad Professor...Vibronics did a version too. Great fun on the bass-bad ass riddim.

NoNoNo a classic, Dawn Penn. but if you want a real queen then try Tanya Stephens, Eteana, Tami Chynn, Kelis (Trick me always goes down well!) , Queen Omega, Rita Marley, TOK etc. some sweet riddims out there for the ladies

In no particular order:

Roly Wynne (Ozrics)
Mike Howlett (Gong)
Jaco
Aston Barrett
Bootsy
Stanley Clarke
Tommy Cogbill
Lloyd Brevett
James Jamerson
Flabba Holt

Lakland DJ5 or JO5

Wow so glad i read this. I was so close to considering buying a 70's Fender black jazz for £500 in Penzance, which is about a 90min drive for me. I emailed the guy who sent me more pics and offered postage rather than driving. I felt this is too good to be true and trusted my gut feeling...i did not maintain communication and bought a jazz of here instead which i now own proudly. Maybe i had a close miss...phew!

Blimey £50, i'm in Plymouth and would have taken this off your hands....could do with a 4x10!

I got down to two, back up to four...gotta love the variation

I've had to cancel a festival appearance ( Jubilee relates) due to tonsilitus ....gutted

Mine is vol vol tone tone. I actually love a combination of tone rolled off on the bridge but full on the neck...the wizard trads I got sound great too. The passive wiring was done by basschatter Kiogon, he did a fantastic job with screw terminals so no soldering was needed. The bass interestingly seems to still retain the Warwick mids...something in the woods/construction maybe??? I've always believed the wood thing was hype but now I'm not so sure

Just bought a nice MIJ Fender Jazz off Ash, top guy and good communications all round. Delivered this morning, gigged this afternoon at a local festival in the sunshine and now back at home staring at it ...more festival action tomorrow though

Anyhow, buyers & sellers can deal in confidence.

Thanks Ash

Another 94 slim necked green machine here... Love my Fortress, especially now it's passive with wizards ....great basses

i chose fralin's in the end and i can't imagine anything being better. Just perfect old school p tones
[/quote] Fralins every time...as used in Laklands old Duck Dunn P model

Dub reggae jam band Friday afternoon opening up Plymouths Volksfest, Saturday local wedding gig with soul band for pocket money and back to volksfest Monday with the soul band...should be a good weekend

Yeah i had the email too....smash trash

Just bought an Eden Nemesis NA650 off Simon, great communications, friendly chap and agreed postage to Devon - brilliant all round.

Big thumbs up for a great amp too - used at a reggae jam last night and it performed wonderfully; the Orange terror bass may get a summer rest

Buyers/sellers can deal in confidence. Thanks matey

Recently traded a Warwick Corvette for Matts Ashdown 4x8 cabs. Totally genuine and friendly chappy who is a credit to basschat. Delivered the cabs at my inlaws from Leeds to Birmingham too - true star.

Thanks for a lovely trade Matt...buyers & sellers should deal in confidence.

I'm playing with a soul/funk outfit at the mo and i'm loving opening with Average White Band's 'Pick up the pieces'...then the vocalist comes on, or often we may open with Sam & Daves 'Hold on i'm coming'...depending on the venue really.

Hey there, is this still available?
[/quote]
Sorry t'is SOLD

Hi, again struggling with time to work these out by ear...plus my ear isn't that great either so was wondering if anyone could transcribe? Ideally to tab if poss...i can read music ish but i'd only end up writing the notes out so tab is quicker for me but will live with notes if thats all available (i know, i know...should learn to read more - maybe when i finish my studies i'll have more time to dedicate ).

Doesn't need to be 100% accurate, just enough to get through the tune confidently...99% is good

Obviously willing to pay £ too, PM me for details. Need asap if poss too.
