  1. Always wished MM Basses came without the pickguard, plus to be really ‘picky’ - with ‘through body’ Potentiometers & input jack in place of the banana style control plate🙈🙈 Lovely Bass though & half way to ‘perfection’ - in my humble opinion of course😃😃 Having said that, I had the Sterling short scale version & the passive electronics were superb on that too. GLWTS👍👍
  2. Ah, yes - Mine were the longer shafted Lollipops👍👍
  3. My ‘68 had Lollipop tuners👍
  4. Around 90 miles away from me, so at my age I would need to purchase one of these first…..
  5. Not forgetting 17. Mustang Bass😃👍
  6. Nicely finished rear of neck example if anyone fancied trying one👍👍 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/267085713988?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=cTV5a5DbRkO&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=PjFQ1zqpS7C&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  7. It’s from this Chap on eBay, I think he’s named Brian & highly recommended👍👍
  8. Even better than expected, high quality craftsmanship & fits even better than the original! Fender etc could learn a few things from Brian, especially how to produce a lovely oldie worldy opalescent pattern👍👍
  9. I had a very old set of La Bella Black Nylon short scale tape wounds which fitted a treat & sound great👍 Will post pics when I’ve fitted the pick guard👍👍
  10. I bought one for noodling purposes & thinking that they are cheap enough so that if need be upgrading the tuners, pickups & bridge wouldn’t break the bank. However, although l can only comment on the one I have as I know build quality can vary across the same range, but it is incredible! Arrow straight neck, holds tune perfectly, spot on intonation with just small adjustments to the bridge & Truss Rod, plus less high frets levelled than on some Basses I’ve owned which cost ten times the price, which then afforded a really low, playable action & it sounds like a P Bass should - Fab👍👍 So not needing to buy any replacement hardware, I’ve treated my self to a Vintage Dark Tort pick guard, which I’m eagerly awaiting to arrive. It also fits easily into a guitar Gig Bag - Boomshanka😃👍👍
  11. Lee bought my headless bass, he’s a lovely Chap with excellent communication skills, an absolute pleasure to deal with & very highly recommended to all BC’ers👍👍 Thanks again Lee.
  12. Bought a Gig Bag from Neil & as usual he was a pleasure to deal with. Excellent communication, plus superb packaging & fast despatch he is a credit to Basschat. Thank you Neil👍👍
  13. John very kindly made me a passive Loom for my Jack Bass and after asking what type of sound I preferred, supplied a superb alternative to replace the original active circuitry. It was so easy to fit, even for an old Duffer like me & sounds incredible - Outstanding! Thanks again John, very much appreciated.
  14. Bought a cracking P Bass from Dan - third time we’ve dealt on here, if memory serves? Spot on communication, excellent packaging and fast delivery - as ever. Thanks again Dan👍👍
  15. Bought a pick guard from Ben & he was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Excellent communication & packaging + fast despatch, so very highly recommended to all fellow BC’ers without reservation. Thanks Ben👍👍
  16. Loved my old Corvette and actually preferred it to the Thumb I had before it❤️❤️ GLWTS👍👍
  17. Thanks👍👍 The Gig bag came with the Jack when I bought it & I’ve not come across them before? No idea how old it is, but it’s really good quality.
  18. Bought this little cracker from this very Parish but despite giving it a really good go, sadly it’s not for me - (just call me ‘sausage fingers’)!! Light as the proverbial feather, sounds huge and the previous owner has wisely fitted Aguilar Thunderblack strings, which are a big improvement on the ultra sticky original type jobbies. The built in EQ is excellent and the tuner is spot on👍 Great for multiple applications - home / work / holiday / car noodling due to its minuscule size & weight plus it could even be a mini back up bass. Would also make a great present for your budding Jaco! It’s in great overall condition apart from a few marks on the rear at the top of the neck - please see photos. Can post to the U.K. Mainland only - sorry, if you are too far away to collect as I still have the box it arrived in. The TGI Gig Bag is a good fit and has a handy shoulder strap + pocket. Give me a shout if you have any questions👍
  19. Thank you, very much appreciated👍👍
  20. Thank you👍👍
  21. Thank you, I’ll give it a go. Very much appreciated👍👍 Cheers, Tim
