    Hi guys, got this beauty recently in a trade and it is a truly beautiful instrument to play, but it is a four stringer and I find that I still prefer 5's. Sunburst Fender Jazz Bass made in USA 2005 Has the S1 switch which allows the pickups to operate in standard parallel , or in series wiring when the switch is pressed Tort and Black pickguard In full working order Fretted Has a few scratches, dings etc which have been photographed in the pictures (this is reflected in price) Has been set up and now sports a fresh set of Fender flats comes with the official hard shell case Happy to post to mainland UK at buyers expense (guessing circa £25) I have shown the sellers pics and now my own after a clean and set up and new tort pickguard. Priced to sell, this although with a few dings and marks is a lovely example of a full blown american Fender Jazz, just one string to few!

    Anyone know where I can obtain some jazz bass pickup surrounds? It is for 5 string jazz bass pickups. Cheers all

    Since I made the move to fives I have had a blast and totally got my head around it. I have just picked up a nice 4 in a trade and have enjoyed setting it up and playing it. I was concerned that going back and playing 4's might play with my head and muscle memory? How do you guys find swapping between the two types of bass?

    Ash body, and I believe Ovangkol neck with Wenge fretboard, also I believe the JE is the Uni Pre.

    Hi guys and gals, I am in love with Stingrays and G&L's currently so will be selling a couple of my beautiful Warwick Corvettes. This is a WPS serial numbered 5 string with the addition of a John East pre. I used this for some recording earlier in the year and the engineer was blown away by the tone and signal this produced. It is in great shape with no issues, I have put a fresh set of strings and a new just a nut. Lovely example of a Warwick. Pro Series bass. Born in 2010

    I had one too, great bass but super low output

    Great answers guys, and it pretty much confirms my thoughts. We tend not to use subs as we have found that the size of venues we play they are unnecessary, therefore wouldn't want the bass drum through them.

    We play rock covers, stuff from Oasis, The Smiths, Killers, Kaiser Chiefs, Pulp, Blur, etc... 9 times out of 10 it isn't an issue, but occasionally (like last night) because of various factors it becomes an issue. I think he has in his mind a big deep stadium sound as opposed what he should be aiming for which is the attack not the boom.

    no, just the kick drum through his rig

    We played a gig last night and in the second set I had major issues with our drummers amplified bass drum signal, it caused a weird oscillation on some songs and in others rendered my B string unusable. I have asked him to roll the bass off and use the mids and treble but he likes to make it bassy, this plays havoc at some gigs depending on acoustics. His set up is a TC BH250 with an Ashdown 1 x 15"and a drum mic, not through the PA. I am guessing when the signal is bassy it actually comes out as a note and I think it is Eb, because when I am playing an E on the B string the tone sounds awful when the acoustics that cause this to be an issue happen Anyone have any experience or words of wisdom on this? Cheers Stuart

    Hi All, £99 - total bargain! Got one of these in a trade recently, really well built and in good condition complete with PSU, I just don't have the time to get to grips with it. Will post pictures later.
  15. vmaxblues
    Had a couple of these, really great basses, beautifully built.

    Got this recently in a trade, it is a fabulous little combo with an incredible tone and build quality is really good. I actually would love to keep it but I can't see myself using it in the near future and my home office is beginning to look more like a bass shop than an office. It is in fantastic little used condition complete with cover original box and case candy. Previous owner paid £750 for it although yo can get them a bit cheaper now so priced it to sell. Based in Hereford. Would post as I have original box and packing at buyers cost.

    Just bought a Dean Fretless from Chris, great guy to deal with, good comms, very well packaged bass and everything as it should be. Deal with confidence.
