  1. [quote name='Fraktal' post='588217' date='Sep 3 2009, 12:50 AM']The MEC pickups in this bass are worth 179 euros EACH: [url="http://www.mec-pickups.de/modules/products/product.php?katID=15040&cl=EN"]MEC's official website[/url]

    They are the 3rd model listed.

    Let me add the tone from those pickups make them worth every cent and more.[/quote]

    thanks fraktal! lets hope that attracts some buyers!

  2. [quote name='King Tut' post='588203' date='Sep 3 2009, 12:27 AM']No worries mate - I've got far too many basses as it is! I believe it was called Daphne Blue and was a common colour for MIM's. I was always amazed at the power of the original P split pickup in this bass. You didn't buy it off me - I traded it to basschatter AlfieNoakes for far too less than I should have done. Good luck with the sale - she's a beautiful player![/quote]

    Ahh right thanks for that. Yeah the p pup is really strong, with a nice low mid grunt. When i got the bass it had really quite bad fret buzz, but i've sorted that now and every note rings out clearly.

    I feel harsh asking for 250 posted now so if you change your mind you can have it for 240 posted.

  3. [quote name='King Tut' post='588157' date='Sep 2 2009, 11:28 PM']Sorry - didn't see the pics at first - yep that's my old one! I'm tempted - would ya take £240 posted? I might regret this in the morning![/quote]

    Ahh really? do you have any info on what colour it is then? I've never seen one like it before.

    Did i buy it off of you on ebay? or was that someone else?

    Seeing as the postage will be about 20 quid i would meet you half way and go for 250 posted?

    EDIT: I would let it go for 240 posted, but a local shop is offering 220 for it, so that would work out pretty much the same minus the hassle of shipping.

  4. This bass has a great sound, and it's made even better by the Kent Armstrong humbucker added in the bridge.

    The finish can be described as a metallic blue, but it can look slightly green in some lights. Not seen another one like it.
    Has a rosewood fretboard, and a red 3 ply torty scratchplate.

    The controls have been modded to suit the pickup config. It has a master volume, a blend, a master tone, and a coil select switch for the humbucker. The blend knob and coil switch provide a huge range of tones, and is a good alternative to a standard PJ setup, but it can of course provide the classic p bass sound when needed.

    Serial is MZ3 so its around 2003-2004 and is MIM.
