Lovely bass, I have a 72 Jazz which is rather wonderful.

According to my luggage scales she weighs in at 25.2kg or 55lbs

As it says, will now post this. 

If you buy this you won’t be disappointed, I bought the other one but can’t convince the boss I need two!

Bought an Eich BC112pro from Adam, fantastic communication and arrived the next day, item just as described, like new.

great basschatter..

Could meet up Nottingham / Leicester or Sheffield, as I often get there with work.

It’s still here 🎶🎵🎶

Dunlop Flatwounds 105, these are great flats, one of my favourite, however I’m finding that I prefer a lighter gauge these days, so will trade thes for a lighter set if anyone has any, or a set of TI Flats, or delivered for £25. Great thing about these is that the silks have a plastic / silicone coating so will still look new when you put them on.

i have two set of these.

1972 tort (top) and 1969 tort (bottom)

Another thing about these, the silks look to have been coated in either a plastic or silicone, I’ve taken a set off one bass and put them on another a couple of times and they still look perfect, no fraying at all. 😀

I don't have S on my tuner - I always wondered what I was missing!

Good spot 😋

And here’s that TI E string magnified even more....

And here is the rather marvellous magnifier, just clips over the lens on my phone, only cost a couple of quid from Amazon....

And her is the TI A, Then the D and G string. Interesting how these don’t have the same spacing as the E String....

Here we have the rotosound pressurewound E string, can see the edges have been smoothed off. Unfortunately I don’t have any round wounds to compare all these too 😟

Be interested to see how some Pressurewounds would compare.

Ahah...I have some rotosound pressure wounds, I will take a picture of them in the morning 😀

The magnifier just clips over my iPhone camera, the photos are all of E strings, will put some A strings up later.

the TI flats have only been on a couple of week, feel and play great, I think that slight gap between the windings reduces the friction a little which you can get on flats, having said that, the Dunlop’s are polished very smooth and play great too..

Got a magnifier for my iPhone so for a bit of fun I thought I’d have take a few close ups of my flats, first we have some super smooth Dunlop flats (which I like very much)

then some TI flats which are about a month old, o was surprised how wide the windings look close up, and how much gunk is already in there, then some super smooth DR Legends, then Rotosound Jazz 77s, interesting how you can see the tool marks on these... 

I do love a flea bass, I’ve had a number of these in my time.

Man, that is a thing of beauty 😱

 I test drove one of these against an AMP One in Guitar Guitar Glasgow about 12 years ago, the Amp one won and I regretted it..

I had an amp one for a while and have regretted moving that on...

It is awesome, I just always end up using my Tecamp combo as it’s half the weight and got wheels, maybe I just need to stop being so lazy 🧐

More photos

Would consider trades for a top quality smaller powerful combo, and can always be tempted by a jazz bass 😬
