    I think he asked because the woman in your avatar looked attractive and so he would never have realised it was carol vorderman

    This item can be seen here [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/206115-new-bass-incoming-pics/"]http://basschat.co.u...-incoming-pics/[/url] in the later pictures and here also... I ordered it from The Bass Doc during his build, but I cant get on with it. Its just a few weeks old, and is in perfect condition with chrome screws. It is genuine fender item and it is thick and solid.I think its worth £10 plus cheapest possible P & p please PM me as I dont seem to get emails for replies to threads. thanks

    Very nice looking - if I hadn't just bought my perfect precision from the bass doc I'd be wanting this

    Most likely explanation is a spelling mistake in their PayPal address when they listed it. Call PayPal to check though - you can find an 0800 number if you look on the net

    That customer service really sucks

    String tension is just perfect - I'm not sure I'd get a no load tone again - there isn't a huge difference although I can hear a little.

    [quote name='dannybuoy' timestamp='1367955903' post='2071626'] As a previous owner of a Classic 50's and a US Standard fitted with a Fender Original, I don't think you need to change a thing - the classic sounded just as good! [/quote] No, youre right - they re quite good enough. The Bass Doc said they sounded quite like the real 62 sound - and he seems to have a 63 so I Guess he'd know.

    Sadly was unable to try amplified due to small person in bed. Will try and fix that tonight. Just unpacked it and strung it. Very low action. The neck feels surprisingly slim actually

    [quote name='hamfist' timestamp='1370159839' post='2096971'] Not only "collection only" the ebay listing finished at a time when a significant majority of people interested in guitars and band music are out, so a very bad time to finish your listing. [/quote] Yep - dumb as mud

Neck is tinted, with a darker tint on headstock, satin on neck and gloss on the board. Kluson reverse tuners Bridge has spiral saddles. I'm working on the pickup cover, not sure if I like it but don't hate it yet No-load tone pot for a fully leaded sound on 10 Plate is tort although I'm not sure how close it is to real tort used on a 73 - perhaps someone could advise ?
