    I will do. I won’t be able to do it for a week though. Having said they’re Jazz width necks, I’ve always assumed they are but never actually measured them!
  2. King Tut
    Correct!
  3. King Tut
    Ah ok thanks for that. The rest of my question stands about the B width vs the traditional 1.75” width.

    That looks lovely mate. And a good price. I’m close to you and I’d love it but my stable is overfull at the moment so have a free bumpy!

    it does seem a bit pricey. Doesn’t the B after the neck date stamp indicate a Jazz width neck? I’ve got a 74 and a 76 both with Jazz width necks. What was the deal with these narrower necks? When did they start making P’s with a narrower neck? Are there whole batches of them or was it an option when you ordered it?

    Ive fitted Luminlays to two of my basses. They’re very good. To be honest just the fact that they’re a little bigger than the ones they replaced and that they’re a nice bright colour is as important as the glow in the darl bit. I wouldn’t try to install myself unless you were quite confident in what you’re doing. The hardest bit is drilling the holes in exactly the right place. Using a Brad Point drill bit really helps with lining up. I made a couple of mistakes on my first one resulting in a couple of bits of the old markers still visible, but made a much better job with the second one. Good luck!

    I’m on my way to pick this up!

    Last I heard they’d stopped touring due to health issues. I’ve seen them a few times and they never fail to impress. Norman is just awesome! Great to see they’re back on the road!

    Hiya - I love a nice Jazz Bass! What’s the weight of this one please? Also any idea of the fingerboard radius?

    Another question, does the B2 have a global eq and volume like the B1four?

    Second this re the paddle switches on the B1 series. On my B1Xon I glued a couple of amplifier feet to the top of the pedals

    Just to clarify, my issues are about the reach to the first fret, not neck dive. Mine’s quite light too. Interesting comments about strap length @Sparky Mark- maybe I should revisit!
  15. King Tut
    Exactly this. I bought a beautiful 1990 neck through some years back. The build quality, looks and tone are absolutely to die for but as soon as I stand up, it goes back in the case. Just waiting for the values to rocket now before I sell it on!
  16. King Tut
    Oh my word!
  17. King Tut
    This is bad news indeed fella. I can’t imagine this forum without your current experience and insight.
  18. King Tut
    That’s way too close for comfort!
  19. King Tut
    Interested in this. Are your comments down to personal experience with the Ibanez strings@Baloney Balderdash?

    I’ve got one of these that has done loads of service with Stray. Mine had been used as a cat scratching post, so I stripped the carpet and painted it with Tuff Cab. Light, loud and nice tone GLWTS

    I bought a couple of sets of the value strings recently and got to say I’m pretty stunned at how decent they are especially at the price.

    Having recently picked up a second Big Baby Oi and realising that two was just being greedy I replied to Alan’s ‘wanted’ add and sold him my original BBii. This involved a bit of a wait and a road trip for Alan. Comms were really good and the deal was done without fuss. Deal with confidence!

    Stealthy! ThNks for the comments, given your experience I’ll probably not upgrade!
