Some of you probably saw the Sei jazz that was built for Randy hope Taylor, up for sale recently! its now in my possession and very nice it is! As expected of a Sei, it’s a great bass, sounds and plays really like you would expect! Owned a good few Jazz basses in my time, but VT VT is a first for me, do prefer VVT, so that may be first upgrade!

Yes, I went looking for it a few months back and couldn't find it, just found a thread on TB with the new site link It's an incredible amount of work this guy has done, since the mid 70's, when .pdf didn't exist T

Hi Some of you may have already been aware of this transcription site It disappeared for a while, I think there was problem with free hosting, but it is now back up and running This has to be the most comprehensive collection of soul, blues and funk transcriptions on the interweb Donald Dunn, Tommy Cogbill, Dave hood and a load more. Practically everything artists like Otis Redding have ever recorded is transcribed! https://freebassparts-pv24.pagesperso-orange.fr/ Plenty to go at by some great players, all notation, no TAB Tony

The new Mastersounds damn funky! -
Two new basses in last few weeks, so GAS has been suppressed for a while, but still ....... 1. A fretless jazz bass, probably a sire, could spend more, but so much value for ££ 2. My old five string Sei from about 10 years back 3. G&L SB2, just curious about this one T

Bought a sei bass off Dave, great communication, well packed couldn’t ask for more! Thanks Dave! Tony

Source audio C4 plenty Of info about this in “effects” Great pedal, incredible sounds, easily edited Its a week old, I was about to buy another filter, then looked at the spectrum and ended up buying this. I’m probably too stuck in my ways to move to such Tech, more inclined to twiddle knobs and make my sounds that way post included in asking price photo later

Hi Not had this long! I sold a Jazzbass, bought what I wanted and also bought this as I was wanting another Jazz But as always happens, something else came along that I had previousley had my eye on, before it got sold So putting this back up for sale at the same price I bought it Original ad' below 70's style jazz bass, 6 bolt neck, blocks and binding, Haeussel JB MM4 Pickups (very nice) comes with windmill gig bag The neck has a very modern feel to it, it being of a wide radius and it's been restrung with 40-100 and set up noce, action is low and it plays superb. The bass has been used and has a few knocks, but overall good condition (but with a little bit of mojo) The original thread gives some histroy og these basses, highly regarded at the time they came out with a four figure price tag Bass is now at the other end of the country, in MAnchester. I have original shipping box if needed Tony

Looking like it’s going to be a mid sixties, ford diamond blue, which is lighter than the VW niagra blue, just checking I got the code I need prior to ordering Was used on 60’s ford thunderbirds amongst others! Tony
-
Diamond blue exists in the car industry as standard colours for a few of the big hitters, but with some variation My partner is going to help try match what codes we have with what I want as she isn’t colour blind. But it’s all relative I guess, what I see is what I see etc, just need a second opinion!
-
Thanks for the info DrT! i was aware of the powder blue on the classics, diamond blue seems a bit more blue? Need to go speak to a local paint shop when they are open, I have code for sonic blue, going to see if I can find diamond blue, may have to go to the EB forum! Tony
-
No, it’s rubbish! i have another 71 bus and that has a proper heater in it. Plus all holes where fresh air comes in are blocked up! Still not ideal but all part of owning an old VW The colour is niagara blue, but I’m thinking of going lighter now. I like the diamond blue which was used in caprice and cutlass bases, which I guess is MM take on sonic blue? Photo attached! Can anyone compare to a real sonic blue? Gives me the option of black, white, off white and tort pick guards! Tony

Mine will arrive tomorrow My house number was missing off the shipping label, doh!

Those plastic boxes you get your chicken madras in are very useful when doing a job like this! 😎

As a time served wood machinist, I can appreciate the accuracy of the tooling used to machine the boards for jointing, knowing how much they wear after time. I suspect they machine these at a fairly slow rate! its all about the prep’ now, lots of sanding to get it smooooooth! Tony

No going back now! Didn't take long with heat gun, scraper and small chisel for those little corners
-
Plus, there’s a few knocks and chips in the current finish!

Let’s get going!

I wanted a PJ with a jazz style neck, which narrows the options a bit, I’ve played a jazz and a MM sterling for several years, really like the sterling, neck dimensions seemed the same and reviews were good! And I just like the look of these and it’s a little bit different! stuck between flats and rounds now, might need another PJ 🤣 Tony
