MEC Gold active pick ups
sshorepunk replied to sshorepunk's topic in Accessories & Other Musically Related Items For Sale
Off the top of my head, these are 95mm wide, they came out of a 5 string dolphin which has narrower spacing than a 5 string stage 1 (for example) they are the same width as the J pick up in a 4 string stage 1. 4th pick up down on this page..... [url="http://shop.warwick.de/index.php/cat/c89_Pickups.html/page/2"]http://shop.warwick.de/index.php/cat/c89_Pickups.html/page/2[/url] Hope that helps, can't give anymoreinfo until I get home tonight -

MUSICMAN STINGRAY 5 SUNBURST PICS ADDED

Ain't none of them the best, they are all different hence the use of the word "custom". If they all made an identical product then we could debate "best" I've owned a few basses made by UK builders, Sei, Status, GB, Overwater, all were excellent instruments, they all felt different to play and they all sounded different. Really is down to what you to hear and what you want it to play like Tony

New thread for this once since I sold my Streamer 1999 Warwick Dolphin 5 string The bass is in good condition, it has some very minor marks in the wood as would be expected from a bass that is 9 years old. There is no buckle rash on the rear or significant indentations in the wood, there is a slight ridge on the rear of the bass between the body and neck section that passes through the centre of the body The hardware is brass with some very slight fading, but this is hardly noticeable, there is some slight wear on the pick up covers, the MEC logo has worn on the rear pick up The electronics are MEC 2 band, with MEC gold, active p/ups The bass comes in a mint Warwick square case, not the full flightcase, but a good solid case as can be seen in the pictures below Here's what the warwick website says......... [i]The Dolphin's innovative body design, based on a rhombus, is perfectly balanced and gives it the eccentric look to match the demands of eccentric players. An extremely hard Ovangkol wood body, contoured to fit the player, hides the Ovangkol neck-through design. The tuners, the Just-a-nut, pickups, bridge and saddle, are all mounted to the same piece of wood producing limitless unrivaled tones. The vast tone flexibility, provided by the unique jazz/twin jazz pickups, opens up a new dimension - full and round across the entire sound spectrum. For everything from percussive playing to fingerstyle, the Dolphin's sound still loses nothing in fullness and warmth. Neck-through-design Available as 4- or 5-string Left-handed and fretless version available* Ovangkol body Ovangkol neck Wenge fingerboard Dolphin inlays Scale length: 34" (long scale) 26 frets Active MEC J/TJ pickups MEC 2-way electronics Natural Oil Finish Warwick tuners 2-piece Warwick bridge Warwick security locks Gold hardware Just-A-Nut III[/i] I've tried to be as honest as possible with the description of the bass, but if you require any more info, please contact me Not something you see offered for sale too often £1050 ono Would consider a trade on this, 4 string only with cash my way

Jake, give me a shout next time you are in Manchester Tony

I don't know the name? Spent some time jamming along to some tunes I do with a guitarist, chilli peppers, audioslave etc, sounded better towrds the end of the evening, once my hands got used to the spacing. Spoke to the guitarist I play with today (he works with me) and we talked about getting a few of the songs down with a bit of a swing, then maybe doing a few open mike and jam nights. Most are origanils, but Scar tissue looks like it will work well, the line swings anyway. Also looked at putting a walking line into one of our own tunes, maybe just chnage the middle 8. Even after a fe whours playing, it changes the way you think about stuff Tony

this good!!! OK, I've been playing bass for 30 years, I started when I was 2 I've owned just about every make out there in every possible form, from 4 to 7 strings, with and without frets But I ain't enjoyed myself as much for a long time as I have in the last hour, jamming along to some of my fave tunes on a NS wav that arrived today! Yep, sopme of the playing is out of tune and the fact I have a chunk of flesh missing from my right hand index finger doesn't exactly help, but still able to play! I've been reading this section for a while, lurking in the background, some good sound advice being dished out, the first bit of advice I'm going to take is is lessons, I may have been at it for a while, even learnt on DB when I was at school (aged 2 ) but still think it will pay in the long run. The bass came from a guy on e-bay, took a chance has he only had low feedback, got a BIN price off him that was about £100 more than a Stagg. It's black BTW Tony

It is very white! For info, I'm sure most know this, but the T Bass was made by Status for Trace Elliot and is now back in production with a graphite neck version from Status! Electronics are Status 2 band. Check out the images below There are a few marks, the ones on the back are shown with the strange arrows, the one on the front is above the bridge and can be seen in photo 2, there are a few minor knocks on the headsock also
