PRICE DROP, £500 - 2017 Fender Classic Series 50’s Precision
foxyFuze replied to foxyFuze's topic in Basses For Sale
Don’t have the original but I reckon they’re easy to find. If it doesn’t sell I’m more than happy to keep it, the neck on it is great and it sounds marvellous with flats. -
Bass clone is maybe less versatile than the others. I’m no expert but the first two would both be good; the TC electronic one is pretty decent as well and has loads of options which could be useful for that genre.

@dave74200 I have a Fiesta Red 50s P for sale on here; you’re welcome to try it if getting to Bristol is viable.

Have messaged you,cheers -
Hi all, Price now £500 For sale (no trades), this great example of the MiM Classic Series basses. Bought to have as an option with flats, but I’m not using it a great deal, and I snaffled a used Nash bass shortly after that’s now my go-to instrument. I swapped the tort scratchplate for an antique white one; I’ll include the tort with it. It’s a classic P-bass width neck that’s a bit shallower than normal - very easy to play! Frets have some sign of wear but lots of use in them still. Body is in great condition with the only obvious ding on the top edge. Tried to photograph it but it’s not that clear; will try again later. Selling for a very reasonable, plus you get the extra scratchplate. These seem to go for £650 - £750 online and this model - along with the nitro finish roadworn - are well regarded in forums. I’d rather not deliver but I can add a hard case in for a few quid more for postage at buyer’s cost and risk if needs be. I’m in Bristol but often in Cheltenham or Gloucester so could meet in one of those places outside work hours. Thanks for looking, Al

I went for it as an experiment, the "flamed maple" option from eBay. I have rolled the edges, oiled the board, tightened the truss rod and filed the nut down (it was way too high). It's a fraction narrow for the neck join but have managed to get it in straight; the gap is barely noticable. If I had paid full whack from Allparts etc I'd be a bit miffed but I can live with it at the price. I'd say the nut slots aren't quite evenly spaced either but that's easily replaceable. I will need to sort something regarding the dots as mentioned in previous posts but for a relatively cheap punt - £85 vs £250 - I'm happy enough with it.

Agreed. I've got Gemini jazz and TBird pickups. They're great and you'll get some decent advice from them if you ask.

Hi all, Must be one of the longest threads on the forum, and one which has helped me greatly! I’m considering getting a second set of custom IEMs mainly for listening rather than playing (via a DAC, from phone) for travelling. Seems to be limited info on suitability in general of IEM suitability for general listening vs live / studio monitoring, wondering if there really is much difference especially at the higher end with multiple drivers. I got my first set from the chap who runs Lugs in NI, so would probably go back again for my next pair. Thanks

BECOS IQ MINI PRO - £SOLD Hi folks, Got a bit more space on the pedalboard so not needing this mini compressor now. Lots of reviews on this, great for guitar and bass. This is a slightly older version (I think 1.2). Can do UK postage for a few quid extra. I don't have the original box but can pack securely. Thanks for looking- 1 reply

I have almost the same model; I finally found a keeper - great basses! Good luck! -
Hi all, I'm looking to do some reconfiguration on a bass body to use Thunderbird pickups. I want to use the same measurements as on the Thunderbird for pickup spacing from the bridge, and correct distance to the neck pickup. This would be for (I think) the modern config where the two are further apart than on vintage models. Could anyone help with this? Weirdly this info is hard to find online so far. Many thanks

Fender Jazz Bass Special electronics
foxyFuze replied to CorrieDeee's topic in Repairs and Technical
Mine has different electronics in it now but I believe the switch is original, if that helps? EDIT: the switch is meant to be oriented that way, so could well be original. -
SOLD Had this a while but it doesn't really get any use due to me sticking with amp and cab setup for gigs. Immaculate condition with cables, plugs, box etc. These I believe are discontinued now, and the few available new are £345 here Not really after trades but do ask, you never know..... Thanks -
I've a set of Mountain Lightning jazz pickups - very pleased with them as a higher-output, chunkier alternative to stock pups.
