    Sorry - yes - Player series!!!! I'll correct the ad. Make an offer - I'm reasonably flexible as it needs to go - not sure how we'll meet up though - Devon/East Sussex is a bit of a gap to bridge!!

    Fender 58 Black Nylon Tapewound strings - long scale - .058-.110 Cut to fit Fender left handed bass, fitted, tried, taken off! Very nice tone on Maple neck Precision - see my other ad - but I prefer the flatwound Rotosounds - these ones are black tape over roundwounds so have a similar feel to standard Fender bass strings. These cost about £28 so a bargain! - price includes UK postage.

    These have been set up for a left handed bass - very simple to reverse (unscrew, flip the key and put back together)

    Sorry all - its a Player series bass - my mistake - but this is the first time Fender have offered a Leftie bass with a maple fingerboard in years!!

    If that's the one I used to own it weighs a ton! but sounds fantastic 🙂

    Hi all - thanks for the information - unfortunately Status don't offer left-handed necks (according to their website) so I'm stuck with Moses if I want to go down the graphite route. However, I'm now wary of spending the wrong end of £300 with an outfit in Oregon - bit of a stretch to return it if it's 'duff'!! As Fender UK seem to have stopped doing left handed replacement USA necks (or any left handed necks for that matter) - and no US companies will ship anything, new or used, with a rosewood board, its back to trawling the web/Ebay or getting a maple/maple from dear old Warmoth (and waiting months!) or 'doing a Hendrix' and sticking a righty on it. But thanks again for all the comments - Basschat is a fantastic resource.

    Anyone had any experience fitting one of these to a Fender body? Perils and pitfalls? What do they sound like compared to a Rosewood board neck?

    I've been after one of those for years!!!! - Ever since I foolishly sold my TV Twelve. Sadly I have just bought a Bassman 500 to go with my 15 cab - and need to sell my GK MB 500 Fusion to pay for it - otherwise I would have been hammering up the M1 like a shot :-( (unless, of course, you would be interested in a trade for the GK - 3 tube pre - with small cash adjustment your way)

    Lovely amp, I agree, but need to sell it to pay for the Fender!!!! Price may drop soon so make an offer and you never know :-)

    Grombass Bass Distortion pedal Hand made in Norway. www.onkartgromt.no For full spec and info. Excellent condition - only used a couple of times - there is a small chip in the paint (see photo) that I did when I got it out of the cupboard to photograph it! UK mainland postage should be about £5.00 Currently on Ebay but will end auction if anyone wants it (unless it gets a bid in the meantime).

    Hi, Selling my GK MB 500 Fusion - bought it in January 2016 - never gigged - home use only - almost as new condition. Comes with unopened and unused footswitch, instructions and original box. Currently on Ebay but very happy to stop the auction if anyone wants to make a sensible offer (unless someone bids, of course). This is a really fantastic amp with three JJ 12AX7 tubes in the pre-amp - sound is warm and full - not quite Ampeg SVT-3 but pretty close - and a lot lighter and smaller. UK mainland postage included - £20 off for collection from East Sussex. More photos available on request. (price and conditions updated 31 May)

    Might be worth contacting Status - they've probably been asked the question before. Owning both a 'Ray and a P, a quick measurement makes the 'Ray pocket about 1/2 cm longer than the P but both measure 43cm (give or take) from the 12th to the G string bridge saddle. Pocket widths are about the same. However, even if the two could be made to match up, no guarantee that intonation, relief, playing height etc would come together - bit like putting a V8 into a Morris Minor - possible, but inadvisable :-)

    Hi, Are either or both of these still for sale?
  22. Leftfret
    Is it still for sale?

    Here's one to stir the pot!! At the end of the day, after dabbling with all those weird and exotic basses most of us come back to a simple choice - Precision or Jazz? (Be honest all you Rickenbacker 4001/3 and Gibson EB players - you all come back to the fold sooner or later) So what's best - P or J? I await the deluge :-)
