    Could be a modded original Ampeg, like this one at Charlie Chandler's Guitar Experience? New ill-fitting scratchplate to allow two J pickups. The control placements certainly look similar.

    Eastwood make a copy but it isn't one of those

    Interesting, could be a bargain if it's modified original

     

    Thanks clarky, hope you're well

    Picked this up yesterday for £80, I'm a big ibanez guitar fan but I didn't have an ibanez bass, needed a damn good clean but has come up lovely

    Forgive my question if I am wrong but is the original photo a 5 string and the offered bass a 4 string?

    Yeah, to be honest I bought it because it looked and sounded amazing, I actually wanted a 4 string so this is a winner

    Think this one may have been mine at one time.

    Fella about 15 mile away is asking £150 for it.  If you're interested, I'm happy to do the middle man job 👍

    I may take you up on that, car has MOT on Tuesday, if nothing major sounds like a winner

    My trusty old 92 jazz' neck was like a banana and the truss rod was knackered so I treated it to a new neck, gave it blocks and binding, quite frankly it looks amazing

    Spark amp

    In the end I've gone for 2 amps, over the last couple of years I've had the Mustang gt40 for guitar, it's been brilliant, being able to download patches and adjust the sound with my phone or tablet, today I took delivery of the rumble 40 studio, works off the same app, can't wait to try it out

    Pinky problem

    There's a lot of wasted energy and time in the way those fingers are being lifted so far away from the fretboard. YMMV.

    Yeah I see that, one of the poor habits I'm trying to get rid of

    Pinky problem

    Hi guys, I've been playing for 26 years and on Monday I had my first lesson, I wanted to address my floating pinky, he has given me so e scales to practice and I'm really improving already but I am getting pain in my pinky and wrist, is this just me building strength or am I doing something wrong?

    New Neck

    No it screams seller pinched the photos from Ali-Ex .

     

    Those necks are sold by the wangguitar 1980 store , their eBay shop was "jinwan" . I have a few necks from them , also I've spotted quite a few  used them in TalkBass build diaries.

    Decision to go with wangguitar was simple economics . Material for a neck ( maple/fretwire/TR/fretboard etc) cost between £30 to £40 then there is the time involved ; wangguitar were charging £55 per neck inc delivery . My time is worth a damn sight more than £25 🙂

     

     

     

     

    Would you recommend?

    That price doesn't scream quality, not that it isn't but.... in the pictures what's going on under the second fret? 

    Good shout, that doesn't scream great QC
