I'm after a 3 tone sunburst, Precision bodied bass preferably with a Jazz or 2nd Precision pick-up in the bridge position (hankering after a bass I owned in my youth). I came across the ESP Vintage PJ bass and wondered if anyone had any experience; build quality (I've owned several ESP aftermarket necks and bodies and they were 'good'!), pups, weight, playability... generally any comments greatly appreciated. Better still has anyone seen one used in a shop. Thanks

[quote name='3V17C' post='326535' date='Nov 11 2008, 09:49 AM']whoa! you're in the Quireboys!!!? how cool is that?! excellent band peace c[/quote] Small world JJ, I didn't make the Quireboys connection. I've known Guerin since school and oddly enough he's invariably in some pub or other that I'm playing at when he's back visiting his hometown... bit of a stepdown from me coming to see the band he's in! -
[quote name='LukeFRC' post='326142' date='Nov 10 2008, 06:28 PM']im sat on the fence. although mainly for having no money and no basses you would want rather than any other reason. I just like looking at pretty basses in the for sale forum![/quote] Hey Luke, you of all people are welcome to have a mess about on pretty basses in 'chez WH' if you ever pop down country to Geordieland.

In the present climate he's done well to get £310 for that!

[quote name='alembic1989' post='324960' date='Nov 8 2008, 08:03 PM']Hi chaps, does anyone know what this is really worth? [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Warwick-5-string-fretless-bass_W0QQitemZ140277463851QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item140277463851&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1298%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Warwick-5-string-fre...A1%7C240%3A1318[/url][/quote] I'd say the seller may break lucky in the present economic climate but that's about what it's worth on an average day! But Hey stranger things happen on eBay... it may end up going for stupid money if an idiot and a shill bidder get started.

Saying that he's also got a 62 P bass for $1300... and a 76 Thunderbird for $1300... and a 65 EB-3 (which looks remarkable like the T bird) for $1300... and a Yep you've guessed it a whole shed load of vintage and expensive instruments all available for a BIN of $1300 if you contact him at the supplied email addy. Scammers really can be complete f*ckwits! -
The seller plasters 'contact me first via email before bidding or I'll cancel your bid, as I'll sell it to you for $1300', now that's a big ebay no-no! However the actual Entwhistle Buzzard bass signed by Hans Peter Wilfer and presented to the seller by Chris Entwhistle... that's some bargain then. OK everybody sing 'Scam scam scam scam' to the tune of Python's Spam song. [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2003-ltd-edition-Warwick-Buzzard_W0QQitemZ250321937890QQihZ015QQcategoryZ4713QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2003-ltd-edition-War...1QQcmdZViewItem[/url] <edit> Ooops I've just realised that the seller doesn't actually say this was Entwhistle's bass (difficult as he died in 2002 and this is a 2003 bass). So 'maybe' this is a bargain.

[quote name='The Funk' post='324678' date='Nov 8 2008, 09:14 AM'] Right out of the [i]Happy Gilmore[/i] school of comedy. Fantastic looking bass. Are you sure you want to sell it? Once it's gone it's difficult to get back.[/quote] Honestly I LOVE the look, feel and tone of these basses but after owning this ultimate Thumb bass if I'm not going to gig it then I may as well not own another Thumb bass... that statement will no doubt come back and bite me on the backside.

I seem to recall making a voluntary contribution some time ago... is that no longer available for those that wish to do so?

I've not noticed any major failings and from my (limited) viewpoint I don't see change for the sake of change being necessary! If it ain't broke...
