[quote name='MoonBassAlpha' timestamp='1481197046' post='3190378'] To be fair to the above, half of them are from kids TV [/quote] I have small children, I have to endure a truckload of kids tv and even I don't know them

the Charlatans "Modern Nature", and I must say that Martin Blunt is very underrated in my very humble opinion, I'm particularly loving his work on "Let the Good times be never ending", exactly what bass should be like. If only I could find the tab or some dots.....

[quote name='Numerov' timestamp='1481016224' post='3188907'] With a 30 inch short scale bass I assume there will be a fair drop of tension in the strings. Am I correct? If I'm correct what do short scale bass players do to overcome this? Thanks. [/quote] Heavier gauge strings - not heavier by much

Even verbal agreement is not enough, you'd have to pay a deposit and so have be consideration for the promise I have a shiny law degree

I got recognition once, female audience member came up to me and told me the bass sounded immense and totally awesome

[quote name='Nicko' timestamp='1480932520' post='3188061'] IMO they are obliged to honour the price at which it was advertised and ordered, and if they fail to do so you could threaten them with Trading Standards, BUT if this is an honest mistake on their part (which it would appear to be) morally I don't think you can insist on them honouring it, especially as you were made aware of the error before placing the order. It depends on whether you are the type of guy that hands back the extra tenner that someone gave you in your change by mistake. [/quote] Sorry no, basic sog act law Price shown, unless and until you actually hand them money AND they accept it, is an invitation to treat - see boots v royal pharmaceutical society -modern equivalent is payment by card over phone or clicking buy now and paying

Because, as equinox put it in their documentary, the electric guitar can move the spirit. Bass merely moves their bowels; which do you think the audience find preferable ?

thats quite the accolade. Ive OM-night played a squier M jazz and everyone was impressed. No one asked where my fender was

You should be able to get a decent jap fender for that money, or a battered US

[quote name='bigd1' timestamp='1481018636' post='3188934'] ? [/quote] The h looked a bit like a flat when read on an iPhones little screen

I read this as "guitarists E flat"

[quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1480948548' post='3188284'] No I'm JTUK [/quote] No I am, and so is my wife Edit: same minute, same content hmmm

[quote name='thegummy' timestamp='1480815676' post='3187336'] Nice man. I was initially pining for a honey blonde 50s to which I'd add a tort pickguard but it seems nigh impossible to get a guard that will fit so thinking I'll go for that black/maple Standard and get a black pickguard and replace the pickups with BKPs [/quote] Plenty of people make custom plates. Do a forum search as it comes up a lot

[quote name='martthebass' timestamp='1480694830' post='3186528'] There are notes above the 12th? [/quote] Yes but you need a map

You can solve the glossy neck easily with some wire wool

Norris regularly gigs a PJ - I've had a few VMs and they have all been superb

Raposa, do you have any idea what price you think acceptable?

Very interesting background

[quote name='blue' timestamp='1480543329' post='3185360'] And what type of physical condition your in also matters.If a guy is sporting a huge arse there's going to be some limitations. Blue [/quote] He said "arse" - its like he's one of us now

[quote name='blue' timestamp='1480566537' post='3185452'] Apparently YouTube frowns on humping invisible bears. Blue [/quote] And if they are visible ?

ok - but there is one of those here https://reverb.com/item/2787795-fender-japan-jb65-115nr-3-tone-sunburst and it has a body end adjustment.

Sounds like you're just getting the wood, a plate and the tuners - I'd want the pickup too

[quote name='mr zed' timestamp='1480379162' post='3183968'] Get a full cash refund. We've seen plenty of examples of stores closing in recent years and vouchers/credit being worthless. [/quote] I think PMT are fairly safe myself

[quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1480157862' post='3182055'] Here'a link to a recently sold one. The differences show. http://basschat.co.uk/topic/281608-198990-fender-jazz-bass-62-reissue-mij-sold/page__p__3023548__hl__mij%2062%20jazz__fromsearch__1#entry3023548 Your body has the earthing strip which suggests 62 RI. The ONLY way to confirm this is to take the neck off. The pocket should have something like JB62 LP. Assuming it is a 62 RI, the neck should also have an extra strap button on the back of the headstock (some call this a hootenany button I believe). [/quote] Yep on both points

[quote name='Twigman' timestamp='1480165383' post='3182140'] My Japanese Squier has truss rod adjustment at the heel. I didn't think any Japanese reissues had it at the headstock. [/quote] Jap 70s reissues do,
