  1. That's what I thought! so it was 'never' an original stock option / feature then??
  2. Can't recommend Fender CIJ or MIJ '62 RI Precisions highly enough - superb instruments - outstanding build quality & value!!
  3. Hi chaps, has anyone ever seen a strap button fitted to the lower horn in addition to the one on the top horn on early Fender basses as per the below pic??
  4. Think my head just exploded !! it's not a Precision is it ??- great bass, just wish I was young and clever enough to understand it - good luck with the trade !! ps - I've owned a few Status basses over the years - currently have an S1 fretless - they were all fab and I still yearn for a bog standard Kingbass - just love the body shape - type bump !!
  5. Thank you - very much appreciated !!
  6. Probably one for the Fender experts - is it possible / feasible for an L series serial number denoting 1964 to have a June 63 butt end date neck attached?? Even allowing for the Fender modular build system - 7 months apart may seem unlikely wdyt?????
  7. The 'Hob - Nob' of Basses .......... 'again' !! Love my passive Jack, the post says it all - headless / thru neck for not much dosh + fits into a guitar case and therefore out of sight in most car boots / stays in tune for ever / lightweight / can't recommend these fat wires strongly enough type bump!!
  8. Hi Kev, welcome to the forum - I'm guessing this is your 4HS with a swampash body, tortie plate & lined fretless rosewood board - drool !! - get some pics up & share the love !! I'd have this in a heartbeat if I wasn't so in love with my Status S1 fretless & couldn't let her go to conform to the 'one in - one out' policy - so kindly instigated by the current kitchen viper post my descendancy into fossildom !!! Good luck with the sale, but I don't think you'll need it!!
  9. Buggeration! too far away & I'm not going to the Bash !!
  10. Just my luck - been waiting for two years for one with this spec & it's a lefty !! Great bass - good luck with the sale
  11. tee hee !! - but seriously folks - ask a good quality luthier to build you a fretless of this standard & spec - then make sure you are sitting down before they give you the price - unbelievable value all the live long day - someone will be a very happy boy or girl !! Dip yer bread as we say up north !!
  12. Coco I should!!!!!!!!
  13. [quote name='fabbabass' timestamp='1378719894' post='2203520'] Please see previous PM's and those above. Thanks, Kevin. [/quote] ?????????????????????????
  14. Bargain alert for the Status fretless - blinking fab build quality, sounds & playability - love mine to bits !!
  15. Sorry, I'm at least a scrillion miles away from you ! - good luck with the sale, but I don't think you'll need it - as these are great sounding bullet proof combos
  16. Hi, where are you located?
  17. Great Guy, deal with absolute confidence Chaps - a true Gent!! Thank you
  18. My vote would go to a Hohner Jack - much easier to play on a strap, standing up than the cricket bat type - l have both & the latter is a delight to play sitting down, but is a bit of a handful on stage due to the way it 'hangs'. But that could just be be & my beer gut getting in the way if course!!!!
  19. PM'd
  20. Can't see any evidence of a previous hole - so it's totally baffling why they would position it 'that' far out of position from 'the norm'??
  21. Must be my age accelerated OCD - but should the position/sighting of the button but me off buying this - even though the neck date looks 'very' cosha??
  22. Hi again chaps here is a pic of said hootenanny button position - does it look cosha to you?? thank you
  23. Thanks Chaps, Have you ever seen the hootenanny button on the reverse of the headstock sited lower down horizontally than the 'usual' place & more in line vertically with the worm shaft of the A tuning peg, instead of the usual 'more central' horizontally position under the shaft of the cog of the A tuner vertically - if you know what I mean!!
