After a straight sale really to fund a mayones jazz

Something a little different here.

its a 1991 4003 in midnight blue with black hardware. Think they did a limited run of these in red, and in white as well as the blue.

Over the years, the colour of this one has changed to a more petrol blue due a mixture of age, sweat, sunlight and I suspect tobacco. It has numerous chips on body, neck and headstock, the finish on the rear of the neck is partly worn away. It’s a genuinely roadworn Ric

it looks great, it plays great and the neck is lovely 

it had a full set up last year and new strings (markbass if I recall).

Asking price is £1500 and I’ve tried to balance out the limited edition aspect of the bass against the roadworn condition. Not an easy one to price.

im based in Wakefield, West Yorkshire and I’d rather do collection or meet up if possible.

PS - I’ve got the original case which is even more roadworn than the bass but I’ve got new latches for it which just need fitting by any decent cobbler with the rivet tool. Just need to locate those new latches following a recent housemove.

Free to first person who can collect from Wakefield 

Missing one foam end but easily rectifiable

I do have a case that could be used to ship it in btw. Well worn but functional though not original to the bass.

Forgot to add, it weighs 4.1 kg

Hi Mike, that is a beautiful thing, my issue is that there is no hard case and I had 2 basses arrive last year that where from guitar shops that got badly damaged so I was able to get my money back. I'll need to think about it. Regards Jimmy

My band uses these as on stage monitors for pub gigs etc - really useful kit especially when mounted on a boom mic stand

I really enjoyed Wolf Alice’s Blue Weekend - looking forward to their gig in the new year 

Thanks @Silvia Bluejay

i managed to figure the expense part of it. Trouble was for us, we only created the request after we played the gig. The guy who booked us didn’t know the process either !

Guess I should have watched the 27 minute video in full but I figured that time was better spent playing bass 😂

Has anyone experienced this recently and their move to Concur payment system.

We’re having a bit of a mare !

Great price for a Shuker and Craig is a great guy to deal with👍

Surely everyone in the band is likely to be in the same boat. There’ll always be songs someone doesn’t like but I just figure I’m part of a team and therefore just crack on with it.

Pm sent

I’ve already put a post in Items Wanted but…

failing that, if you have some could you template one out for me so I could have some made 😊

Norman Watt-Roy

But then you figure out that playing isn’t a competition 

Just wondered if anyone has had any experience of this condition.

My wife has just been diagnosed with the condition and although there’s no bending of the fingers yet, she’s very worried about how it might develop.

Please PM me if you can share any experience of the condition.

Thanks in advance 😊

Oops - here's the facebook page instead 😀

A friends band is looking to recruit a bass player for their 90's function band. They practice in Leeds and gig all over the Yorkshire region and aim for 2-3 gigs a month

Here's the blurb:

NME (Nineties Music Experience) are a fully live 5 piece band bringing you the biggest tunes from music's last great decade.

We cover the likes of Oasis, Blur, Pulp, The Charlatans, Happy Mondays, Stone Roses, Paul Weller and loads more besides just Britpop

Their website is here: www.ninetiesmusicexperience.co.uk

I helped them out with a guitarist audition last night and they're a good bunch of guys

Anyone interested should contact Jonny on 07824 347361

Update:

Yesterday afternoon I took @joeystrange‘s advice and contacted the place in Nottingham that I thought my bass had been sent to. Amazingly, they had it - so I drove over there this morning and picked it up. What a relief.

I don’t know how Interparcel and Parcelforce ‘conducted a thorough investigation and concluded the parcel was lost’. I told them where I thought it was and the guy in Nottingham said they had called Interparcel last week to say they have it! It honestly beggars belief.

I had an email last night saying Interparcel were paying out £900 on the insurance. After a bit of soul searching, I’ve just told them I’ve found the bass so not to pay out. I’ve asked for reimbursement of my travel costs and some compensation but I won’t hold my breath.

Anyway, the happy ending is I’ve got my bass back. I’ll be putting it back up for sale soon, so if you see a 5 string black and maple P bass in the marketplace, it isn’t stolen!

Well done you.

I might have been tempted to carry on the claim on a win some, you lose some basis. But then I’d probably have slept on it and decided to do the same as you.

The stress they’ve caused you is worth a big chunk and clearly they’ve done nothing to find it for you.

Glad it got resolved

I’m selling this lovely 75 reissue I picked up early last year as I recently picked up an original 74 Jazz.

Fiesta Red body with a few small knocks as shown in the pics. Lovely block and bound maple neck with 2 really small knocks.

Weighs in at 10 lb which is average for these. 

Pickups are Fender Custom Shop or if you prefer I have a set of Lindy Fralins I can swap in. Controls are a set that Kiogon (John) made for it.

Comes with a Hiscox Liteflite hard case which isn’t pristine but does the job.

£750 ono

Collection from Wakefield or meet up preferred but I can box up if you want to arrange a courier.

Not really looking for trades this time 

Sorted now thanks - guy was a BC er as it turned out and was happy for me to arrange courier.

Looking at a collection only bass I've seen down there so wondered if anyone could help me get it upto West Yorkshire
