Yep I've not got as far yet

[quote name='kemper162' timestamp='1376578805' post='2176367'] Huge thanks to everyone... feeling a whole lot better about it now. [/quote] I was awful for this Don't worry too much it does get better with time Maybe lessons would help ?

Thanks chaps - first thing to deal with is new strings. Ones on it are older than god

Yes it's string thru - thx for reminding me about that. Where do I get a matching black knob with button ? Any ideas people ?

No it has a proper hard case and hang tags and its def urethane

It's not got an S1 sadly - does anyone else gave an 03 that doesn't ? There is no secret button but I haven't fished the plate off yet to look there It's very fluffy sounding so I'm guessing it needs new strings

Try also www.playbassnow.com and google Scott Levine who has lots of free stuff A little theory goes a long way Asking for help is also brave so well done

I used to have a magna pro 2 - do you have pics of the cliff burton bass ?

Ill look tonight - sounds like I have bagged a good one

Yep agree

Wow-really ? Where is the switch ? It has black knobs

Early MIMs did have strat knobs I think

Any features missing that are added to later models, or added that weren't on previous ones ? Advice please Thanks

You'd be covered under parcelforce regulations if that's the case

Didnt realise it was every other weekend, thanks for that tip

10% of final value capped at £75. Also a listing fee which varies by starting price and item type. PayPal take 3.4% also Seller gets what's left

Yes that really p1553d me off . Avoid member "hollygrassby" who bids and wins and never pays. She has "textual" negative feedback only. Can't neg her.

Royal Mail is getting insanely expensive, and ebay are getting very greedy indeed. I really do think buyers are genuinely put off by even no-profit delivery costs on listings

[quote name='tauzero' timestamp='1375706653' post='2164488'] Well, that's no good. Only Fender have the secret of how a bass turns from pristine to looking like sh*t in a fortnight. [/quote] Yes very funny - I always wanted a tired looking 70s fender but better made with better components than the real thing (cue the bass doc making me one)

[quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1375707261' post='2164499'] Hey Simon, here's another vid with some ideas. I'm pleased I got to rescue the Fender Jazz from you before you went off the rails. ; http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=o0i-Yz4Cm4A [/quote] I'm very glad you're enjoying it- I sold mr g a very nice cream/tort/rosewood mex jazz with copper shielding so its both smooth and non-noisy

[quote name='iconic' timestamp='1375690972' post='2164194'] Send it to a mate 'return' using 24hr parcelforce! [/quote] How true

@Fat rich That's very helpful - thanks

It's not a genuine fender, its a bitsa painted purposely in nitro to get it to relic quickly, and to be a fair replica. I'm not going to sell it,
