    Here's a demo of the bass in action

    Yep, i used to be a full time musician, played with a £200 bass, now i have retired from music and changed careers I own some very nice instruments...

    I bet you are a great bassist! Thanks for your settings. I have been trying to cut the mid and boost the bass and treble a bit but like you say, he always has that mid growl on hand when he switches to finger style - so that makes sense (otherwise if the mids were scooped for slap then when he switches finger style he won't get that middle growl). BTW do you currently own any Jaydees?

    yea i played a 4 string in Tin pan ally a few years ago, i still remember that lovely mid growl from the back pickup

    Jaydee bass owners: Can you let me know what your Mark King slap settings are? Especially how to set the EQ and tone - I wonder how much of the tone was coming from his Trace EQ which was scooped?

    That's gorgeous, anyone know where this bass is now?

    I can confirm the magnets are towards the bridge side on both pickups.

    Amazing price for this top of the range model!
  10. joe_geezer

  11. joe_geezer

    Hi! SOLD Original Yamaha TRB Mark 1 4 string bass in great condition, lovely example! Excellent weight and balance. Hardly used, check out the pick ups to see there is practically no where and tear. Might have a few small dings but difficult to see with the natural wood body type. Originally imported from USA, after duties and import tax was over £800 but selling for £700, i'll take the flack on that.

    Hi! I'm selling a Yamaha TRB 5 string Mk 1 version, plays great, has one small mark by the back pickup (see pic) but apart from that is mint. Excellent weight, not heavy at all, plays like a dream, super low action. Is the famous Mark 1 version, so made in Japan. Selling for £850 as that it was i paid for it on ebay in 2021 (see pic of the ebay receipt). London pick up preferred.

    Why oh why did you sell that beauty? - Disclaimer: i've sold some beauties in my time

    Someone needs to get a rough idea of how much he wants...

    Beautiful Bass! I wonder if John would make this model again today....
  18. joe_geezer
    Never really rated her myself but she's certainly on the London session / depping scene
  19. joe_geezer
    Sweet bass!
  20. joe_geezer
    So whats going to be her replacement?
  21. joe_geezer
    Sorry, just replying to the quoted post, wasn't really directed at anyone, was in general
  22. joe_geezer
    Agree 100%, if the seller doesn't reveal the weight I wouldn't even bother to consider buying it.
  23. joe_geezer
    This is amazing haha
  24. joe_geezer
    Yep, The JP1 is basically a TRB mark 1 with a fancy top + ebony fingerboard. The original TRBs have an even more expensive fingerboard = Brazilian Rosewood, which is now endangered, banned from exporting and if you can get it as an option, prices are ridiculous. Yea the TRB Mark 1s and JP1 are great instruments.

    What's going on with the secondhand market? There's no decent high end bassists for sale? I just picked up a Guitarist magazine from 1991 & looking through the the music shop adverts theres about 20+ new and secondhand Status Series 2/Empathy basses for sale & 15 used Jaydees... how times have changed!
