    My thoughts exactly... It's a beautiful looking bass as it is but that matching headstock takes it to another level! I had a CIJ P Bass a few years back and it was superbly built, and a joy to play. 🤔 Yet another one that I shouldn't have sold.... (bashes head repeatedly with multi fx unit).. 😁 Anyway, enough of my self-recrimination.. She's a beaut Brian and GLWTS ! 👍😊

    Cheers Chris 👍😊 Amazing what autotune and flex time in Logic Pro can do for you... 😁 Very true about that Precision tone, it just works perfectly.

    Thanks @tegs07and @briansbrew - really helpful feedback and comments. 👍 I wish I had the original pick ups @jrixn1but alas, it came with the Fender Original P-Bass Pick Ups already loaded... Thanks for the suggestion though!

    Thought I'd better bump this as I have been so busy lately, I forgot. Which reminds me - I have a question for you : In all the time I've been buying and selling bass gear here on Basschat, I've never had a situation like this one, where my For Sale advert has had almost 600 views, but I've not received one single PM or offer! So, my question is, what's wrong, what am I doing wrong... ...Is it the bass itself, the price I'm asking, the current state of the second hand market, my advert?? I'm a little but stumped to be honest. So, Basschat friends, your constructive, insightful feedback and comments would be most welcome. Thanks 👍😊

    Hi Folks, Well, who says lightning doesn't strike twice? I've just bought a lovely P Bass from Jon, aka @Mudpup, and the whole transaction from start to finish was an absolute pleasure - just like the first time ! Suffice to say that Jon is a man of impeccable taste when it comes to basses/bass gear and is as accommodating and chilled out as it could possibly be when it comes to sorting out a Basschat deal.. In short, highly, highly recommended to one and all on here and a credit to the Basschat community. Thanks again Jon for a great conversation, the chance to try out your lovely new Warwicks and for a fabulous P Bass of course! 👍😊 Here's to the next one... 😁 Nik

    And here's a picture of said bass in action last night.. I felt quite emotional playing it to be honest.

    I'm really sad to hear this news about Nigel.. I'd heard he wasn't well from @Chimikea couple of months ago, but nevertheless, this is a surprise. Nigel was an absolute gent who I bought a lovely, 1980s G&L SB1 from 3 years ago.. So I'm going to use it at my gig tonight in memory of him! RIP Nigel 😔

    Hey Chris, Thanks for the kind words! 👍 Well, it'd be great to see you, but I realise it's a long way for you to travel. If you do though, the beers are on me - I must owe you about a million of them as it is... 😁

    Hello fellow Basschatters, Just a quick message to say that for any of you who are based in London, my band - Harmonic Swamp - is playing at The Dublin Castle in Camden Town, London this coming Friday, 21st April. We're on stage around 9.15pm. Here's some info about the gig: https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid0waNbkDmY8KYJpx8rBD77wTAMUrrGAk8zPTVm1sxr4ZX6RRsQKaYtd32sYPMnwC65l&id=167859290629456 And some info about the band with some video clips: https://www.facebook.com/harmonicswamp https://instagram.com/harmonicswamp?igshid=ODM2MWFjZDg= If we sound like your thing, you're free and able to come down, it'd great to see you! Cheers Nik

    OK, in the hope that it helps spark some more interest in this lovely P Bass, here are three very rough & ready mp3s of the bass in action, to give you a flavour of what it can sound like. These have been put through a Zoom B1X Trace Elliot amp sim, and recorded into Logic 9 via an M-Audio interface. I've added a bit of compression and a tad of 2.5 kh eq to compensate for the strings being a few months old. Please excuse the scrappy playing and the basic sound engineering.. It is Sunday morning after all! 😁 Any questions, please ask... Squier CV P Bass Test Motown Style.mp3 Squier CV P Bass Test I Wish Finger Style.mp3 Squier CV P Bass Test Pick Style.mp3

    Morning All, Having bought something else, I really do need to move this on now... So, new price is £350. Happy to throw in a decent gig big for an extra £15, or the Thomann Tweed case for an extra £35. Also, I will consider shipping this as long as it's fully insured. Any questions, please send me a message or ask away here. Thanks for looking... Nik

    You did, some very nice ones too, Mick including that fabulous Veillette-Citron if I'm not mistaken?
  17. silverfoxnik
    This used to be mine for about 5 years, and before that, it belonged to @TheGreek. It was always a really comfortable bass to play and it sounded pretty good too. Not as aggressive sounding as some P Basses, but a really nice, usable tone. I imagine that it's considerably better in every respect now, given the very sensible upgrades you've done @Paolo85... And I still think that the mirrored scratchplate and tone knobs look cool... 😁 So, taking all of that into account, at this price, I'd say someone's going to get an absolute bargain here! GLWTS 😊
  18. silverfoxnik
    That looks really nice... GLWTS

    Cheers John, It is a bit of a sexy looking bass... 😁 Sounds bloody good too!

    In response to a couple of PMs I've had, here are some extra photos, which also include pictures of the Thomann case...

    Now SOLD Hi Folks, Up for sale is my Squier Classic Vibe 70s P Bass, which comes fully set up and has the benefit of being upgraded with Fender Original P Bass pick ups, so it really does sound good! I'm looking for £SOLD for the bass, which I think is reasonable given the bass would cost £360 new and the pick ups about £90. These pick ups really do sound good to my ears - the sound is exactly what you'd expect from a P Bass, full, throaty and with lots of attack and presence. As can be seen in the photos, it's in almost new condition and since I bought it at the start of the year, I've only used it for a few rehearsals. It really does look great IMO, and it plays really nicely, though obviously that's a very personal thing; I tend towards a medium-high action, but everything is working as it should so it won't be difficult to adjust it to your preference. Strings are D'Addario nickels, 0.45-105s. Tech spec available here : https://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/Squier-Classic-Vibe-70s-Precision-Bass-MN-Black/2ZY8?origin=product-ads&gclid=CjwKCAjw586hBhBrEiwAQYEnHRTWaVK89KjNTbFZeJsRUT8GRn3klFdxvsV2QmafhsYUukpXGem7rBoCazIQAvD_BwE I'll post up the weight later... The only reason I'm selling is because there's something else I really want, and as this was last in, it's a case of first out... No trades please. I'm based in Potton, Bedfordshire and would much prefer to sell the bass to someone who's able to collect in person. As an aternative, I'd be happy to arrange a meet up in person within an hours drive from me.. Having had too many negative courier issues over the years with bass , I'm not comfortable with posting this but would consider it if absolutely necessary. I have a lovely Thomann tweed case that I could throw in as extra for £50 which would make it safer to ship. Trials welcome by arrangement with your amp of choice! Thanks for looking and if you have any questions, please send me a message via PM or ask away here. Cheers Nik
