    A vintage Ibanez PJ means this baby has to go. She's an 'F' serial made in Japan Precision which dates her to 86/87 - model designation - PB - 5 5 7. When I bought her she'd been stripped and badly brush varnished. She's been refinished in Nitro Black by Andy Viccars, who also fitted the extra Jazz pickup . . . [url="http://www.andyviccarscustom.co.uk/"]http://www.andyviccarscustom.co.uk/[/url] . Be aware that nitro finishes are fragile, and the matte look on the back has been caused by constantly rubbing against my clothes during gigs. As you can see, she's got some dinks and buckle rash on the back - all superficial and inevitable on a nitro bass that's been gigged a lot. The mark on the neck is a scratch and not a crack - Andy's checked this out and confirmed it - it's been there since before I bought the bass - it's not caused any problems and I don't notice it when I'm playing it. There's plenty of use left in the frets and no problems with the truss rod. It was fitted with a BA II bridge for a while, and the marks left by this are visible around the original bridge if you look closely. The controls are . . . Front knob - pickup pan Middle Knob - volume Back knob - tone All the hardware is original except the scratchplate and the strap pegs. It will come with normal non locking strap pegs. The Jazz Pickup is a Wizard 84 that's been overwound to help the volume match the 'P' pickup. The overwinding gives it a fairly 'dark' tone. It's strung with LaBella 110 flats. I'd be happy to string it with something else if you didn't like these strings. Looking for [s]£450[/s] now £400 inc case collection only from Milton Keynes, or Central London (Euston) for an extra £20. Now for the Pics . . . .

    [quote name='bumnote' post='820927' date='Apr 27 2010, 06:07 PM']I think thats a rant from the heart not the head Im the one oin our band who has the fuses, soldering iron, solder, tools, spare leads, batteries etc, While I agree about the thought of professionalism the most valid thing to do is assess the risk. If you take a spare amp, do you take a spare cab as well? I drive a V70 and there is room for 1 passenger and thats it. The rest of it is absolutely jammed with gear, as is the guitarist V40 and the drummers car. Having said that, even if there was more room, a spare bass amp is not necessarily the most essential spare to carry. I would suggest that thing that would stop most bands evening is the desk/pa amp, and I would be surprised if you or anyone takes one of those as a spare. I or the guitarist could plug into the pa at a push. We run a desk into an active crossover and into 2 power amps. If an amp goes we could get by with a single power amp, if a pa speaker goes we could get by with 1. If we loose the desk, theres nowhere to go. Evening over.[/quote] I've always thought we were most vulnerable with the desk/power amps etc. As long as ur PA and monitors are decent, that's gotta be the best bet should your bass amp go down.

    I think you'll find the body is made of Elm. Doesn't naturally spring to mind as a tonewood - bu t I had the 5 string version - was awesome!

    SOLD

    King Tut replied to playbass's topic in Basses For Sale

    I think this used to be my bass. I'm sad to see it getting sold on because it's a beaut - very light as well if it was my old one!
  19. King Tut
    This is a pretty serious bargain. I'm sorted for an EUB but have a bump on me!!
  20. King Tut
    Plus one for Wharfedale EVP. I've got a 12 incher (ooerr misses!) and it'd pretty darn good!!
  21. King Tut
    It's an S1 - which at the time was a US standard. It used to be mine and it's a corker - no issues and very light. I only let it go because I fancied Simon's Thumb and I've already got a few Jazzes. Free bump mate!

    I play floyd stuff regularly. Yep it's dropped D butv ur average punter will never notice if you play in normal tuning and play it an octave up !!
  23. King Tut
    I think they're probably all making more money doing functions?
