  1. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fender-Warmoth-74-Jazz-bass-build-project/112736305513?hash=item1a3f9b8169:g:kZMAAOSwytJaQ7~W Only pickups, bridge, neckplate are Fender. Body is Warmoth. Fender logo on 3rd party neck makes it a fake.
  2. Aye - I guess it's a matter of whether there is something untoward underneath, and the quality of finish... (And the time & effort required!)
  3. I've got an Affinity Strat which I bought for my kids 10+years ago; it's like a Fender except every part is just cheaper & less well finished, but it sounds rather good. I looked at selling it a while back, but they're not worth much, so I kept it; I think £40-60 is the right price range and you get a lot of guitar for that!
  4. The machines are interesting - not yer standard cheap Japanese ones.
  5. Well, I haven't been wanting one of those for years, but it looks so left-field I think I'll give it a go! PM on way...
  6. I think it's amusing that the packaging has Professional misspelled. But it looks a nice cable!
  7. That's an interesting way of flipping the question around.
  8. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fender-Jazz-Bass/182988650320?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D49130%26meid%3D537622dc6ad542afaa6d2b34918cbae7%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D6%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D362200709424&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851 "I can't tell for 100% is it real fender parts" - well, I can tell the machines aren't!
  9. We used to make fun of Jedson back in the 70s; it'd be worth up to £50 as a curio, but not as a player.
  10. As mentioned, even the county would give a general idea of the area. Work-wise, most peoples jobs say they shouldn't be posting online whilst at work. No need for their precise post-code.
  11. Elf in your pocket after a gig = a really hot derrier!

    Odd balls

    There are some commercial brands which assemble basses from off-the-shelf parts. Recently I nearly bought a Peter Cook Mighty Mite P-bass - he made them in the 70s/80s(?) and one I saw had a Mighty Mite logo.
  13. I think the county would suffice for initial information purposes.
  14. Well, I think things could've been smoothed out... ...oh no, I thought you said ironing!
  15. The strings winding on the machines looks weird. But at least it's something different to a Fender!
  16. Well - it's been decided anyway, so all sorted.
  17. At least there wasn't an FFS there, so maybe the grumps were dissipating a bit...
