What’s the general opinion on the Trent Guitars basses? Has anyone tried their mk1 bass?

It sounded good when I saw Wet Leg last year. Would love to try one.

Bought a source audio aftershock pedal from Bill. Was straightforward and quick to deal with. Pedal is in great condition as described at a great price. Arrived promptly. Would happily deal with Bill again

Anybody know a good source for a 32" Jazz neck in the UK?

 

Not strictly Jazz, but something of that type ( P or Jag perhaps )

 

cheers

I can't vouch for the quality and it's the wrong headstock, but it is 32"

The Squier Affinity Jag is 32” scale and has a 38mm nut width.

This is also true for the current Squier Jaguar Classic  Vibe. 
The neck on mine is great for me. 

At least this will be gone before I get too tempted

I'm thinking cream pickup covers. 

 

Will that be too much with the maple neck?

I think that would look great

More than happy to contribute. 

 

Anybody up on how to set up crowd funding?

never done it , but this might help

gofundme seems to be the most used platform.

Although I am happy with my Jaguar. 
Pretty sure I would have clicked buy on this if it had been available in March.

Got a loom for a Squier Mustang CV. 
Arrived in less than 48 hrs. 
I’ve only ever changed strings previously but this was super straightforward and John was super helpful. 
I needed to make the holes on the control plate a little bigger, John provided great guidance and it was very easy. 
 

Most importantly it has made the bass sound better and provided more range of tones.

I’ve decided to try a medium scale bass and I’m looking for something in the £200 to £500 range. Pre-loved preferably. 
 

There isn’t a huge amount around compared to short scale.

I’ve created a list of ones I know about.

What am I missing?

Are there any to avoid?

 

Currently in production 

Squire Jaguar Classic Vibe

Squire jaguar affinity H

Ibanez SRMD200 Mezzo Bass 32”
Aria Pro II JB or JB1

Retrovibe R32 “Telenbacker” 

 

No longer in production 

Fender pawn shop reverse Jaguar

Squire MIJ medium scale P Bass 80s

Squire telecaster bass??

Yamaha Motion B

Ibanez Roadstar RB600

Fender aerodyne jazzz japan

Retrovibe may have done a 32” 51P in the past

 

(I’m also going to post in items wanted).

Thanks for all the suggestions and offers.

I've just taken ownership of a 32" Squier Classic Vibe Jaguar, from the BC marketplace.
It was local enough and affordable enough to be a great option to try out medium scale.

Looking forward to plugging it and trying it out.

This is really testing by resolve to try out a medium scale and not get second short scale.

Looking forward to being able to put these side by side.

lovely 

I have the same squier. I have been thinking how nice it would be to get the white and blue pawn shop fender to pair with it. 

Thanks. Costs and risk is a concern. Tempting as it is. 

If this was nearer to me I would bite your hand off.

A lot of the articles about new Behringer products in development seem to be lifted from social media but miss out a key element. Which is they are openly trying to work out how many people might want to buy it. 
In this case on Instagram they end with “What’s your interest?”

Which is a bit more of a commitment than the Mooger Fooger post which clearly says it’s a prototype and asks for feed back “before we manufacture it”

I think it’s a great approach. 
 

And the clones all look very cool.

I’d also be interested in a trade involving a 32 inch scale Jaguar. . 

A couple of people have asked about the weight. (I know, I could have predicted that).
I'm away from home, will try and weigh it tomorrow evening and update the add.
It doesn't feel very light, but my main frames of reference are a squire CV Mustang and a SGC Nanyo, both of which seem pretty light weight.

You have PM.

Nothing has come through yet.

Happy to. Just letting you know there seems to be a bug. 

Posting in market place wouldn't allow me to add description when using Safari on a macbook.
I logged in via chrome and it worked fine.

For sale or trade. A great P Bass, made by The Bass Centre, created in collaboration with Attractions bassist Bruce Thomas. 

You can read the story of its creation here . 
It seems to be very well regarded by many people on this forum.

I bought this from this site in May 2021 as I was getting back into playing. Including myself it’s had at least three careful owners.
It’s a great playing and sounding P Bass, but I’ve hardly played it with since I got a Mustang for Christmas 2021. So I am looking to switch this out for something different.
It still has the the flats it arrived with. There are screw holes for an “ash tray” bridge cover, which I took off but still have and will include with the sale.

Happy with sale or trade. For trade, I’d consider anything short or medium scale, with cash going in either direction. Top of my wish list would be SS Sterling Sting Ray, G&L Tribute Fallout or Pawn Shop Mustang.

Collection or meet-up only (unless it doesn’t sell for a few months). Happy to meet up in South Wales, along the M4. I also have occasional work trips to Bristol, central London and Milton Keynes. 
 

I’ve weighed it on bathroom scales and I make it 4.5 kg

Price reduced to £295 for collection/meetup.
(Although I am now thinking I might keep it after a few goodbye noodles).
