Reggaebass

Dons back with some Leroy Sibbles

Very nice indeed, congrats that looks a beauty, I’m normally into 68-72 Precisions but I’ve been looking at a few 66’s lately

Welcome Cj

I’ve thought about doing that a few times to one of my not so expensive precisions, I’m assuming it’s the one on the Sean Hurley P bass , I’ve got the Bassmute on one which is really good but they are a bit pricey

The switch on mine used to stick occasionally so I took it to ashdown and Dave removed it for me, I didn’t use it really , he did say that they wasn’t a great idea in the first place, for headphone practice I use the Nux pro

Sounds great hiram, a few off the top of my head without getting too into the heavier reggae stuff , theres many Marley songs maybe pick your favourites , Buffalo soldier, Jamming, three little birds etc Sweat - inner circle Jimmy Cliff - You Can Get It If You Really Want The Melodians – Sweet Sensation, one of my faves Baby I Love Your Way - big mountain I see you already do good thing going by Aswad , that’s a great song, Shine is another one more will come to me soon 😁

Listening to some Alborosie today

Love that frank, congrats, I’ve always liked those myself

Just bought one of peters books, great comms and quick delivery, many thanks, Tony

Nothing wrong with that, just how Leo intended

Wo, hang on a minute here, people use more than 5 frets 😲

FWIW, from the not very clear pics I think it’s genuine, if the seller could check that the blocks are stickers ( which is quite easy ) , if they aren’t stickers then there’s something wrong and I’d stay away from it

It matches really well, very nice

Good one, I like that, pretty heavy

Some also have the Allen key nut at the heel, pretty sure my 2014 jazz has that

Yes, a lot of the time it will just tell you what year it is

Yeah spot on, binding and bridge only stringing

It looks genuine to me , but the only range I remember with the blocks was the AV 70s reissues, I had one in sunburst , but the logo looks wrong for one of those , stickers would explain it as the first one is missing

Absolutely agree with you there, I can’t watch anything by any of them😬, but , and there is a but , I thought Scott’s interviews with Sean Hurley and Freddie Washington were great, I wouldn’t watch anything else though

It does come in handy sometimes 😁

Click your account, then ignore and type in who you want

Yeah just change the saddles, I’ve done it on a few of my jazzes as I like the threaded ones, I got the fender ones a long time back maybe from allparts, they were quite expensive though, or maybe get a hosco bridge and just take the saddles off, like this

Can’t say I’ve ever heard that one before 😁

I’ve always used a strip of business card with no problems whatsoever, that very thin shim can make a big difference to your setup, I wouldn’t go any thicker
