Bought a SWB from Si. Excellent communication, quick dispatch and well packaged. It's a strong recommendation from me.

Thanks Si.

As ever the "it's only worth £400" crowd are out (admittedly mainly on Faecesbook).

Yeah, ten years ago maybe.

Karl has fabulous taste in basses and is a pleasure to deal with. GLWTS.

Looks Warwick-Spector esque to me. But I must admit to knowing very little.

TIL that Basschat has forums that are hidden from non subs. 🤷‍♂️

Cracking bass this, and Peeperoid is a great guy to deal with.

Another recommendation from me. Top tier gig bags IMO.

I was up to seven last year and I realised it was madness because I only play one bass at a time. I don't gig anymore and don't have the inclination to start. They were mostly piling up in the wardrobe and not being used.

It was a long term itch I wanted to scratch, having an arsenal of bass guitars, but once it was assuaged I came to my senses and sold them all except one.

I had a CV Jazz and a Jap Mustang, both of which could have happily been 'the one', but I settled on a preloved, lightweight and slightly roadworn example of Pro P.

The moral I took from the story is that you have to play the field a bit before you settle down.

This really is a joy of an instrument, a real player. I would have happily kept it but I was adamant I was going to get my collection down to one bass.

Geoff's an absolute gent to do business with too.

GLWTS.

Just sold Peeperoid a Jazz bass in a pleasant and smooth transaction.

A strong recommendation for me.

Thanks Alan.

This one's on hold...

Looks ace 

Do the additional fender covers affect the value in the future just a query. 

Looks really nice

That depends entirely on the buyer. It didn't affect the value to me.

I used to own this bass and it's a cracker. Does everything a Jazz should, the Shoreline Gold looks really classy and the S1 switch is a sonic bonus.

But I'm trying to sell an American Pro Jazz and get my collection down to one bass, otherwise... well I'd be all over this.

GLWTS

I unboxed it and took some more photo's.

I just recently sold one of these in white, but I'm temped to buy another because they're such fine basses. GLWTS.

If you want to flex on a Mac user, just start uttering words like Bitcoin or Video rendering. Most Macs will not cope or be totally weedy compared to a PC... thats if they haven't suffered thermal issues in the process.

These threads always seem to follow the same path.

OP asks should I buy a Mac or PC. A load of Mac users turn up and say buy a Mac because they're much, much betterer than a PC. A load of PC users turn up and say, " actually I've got Apple Marketing from 2006 on the phone, and they want their old advertising campaign back".

I was just trying to have a bit of fun with it.

Sorry.

Condescendence? From a Mac user? Who'd have believed it!

Ah, the age old internet fight of Mac versus PC.

An emotive issue for sure and one that needs to be delicately handled.

PC is the correct answer. Apple owners make me sick. 🤢

Reduced to £950 delivered in the UK. A practically new bass, case and candy.

No trades and no offers please.

I sold a Precision to Pablo who arranged a courier to collect and have it shipped to Madrid. It was a pleasant, fast and easy transaction.

This is a strong recommendation for me. Thanks Pab.

Now sold. Many thanks for all the interest.

Have you heard the Meters onLee Dorseys stuff... marraige made in heaven😇

I have!

I also love the prominent Meters/Lee Dorsey/Lowell George grooves on Robert Palmer's debut LP.

Rum and ginger... I've run out of limes though... I didn't want to risk it

I'll agree with you about Rejuvenation though. The first Meters album is brilliant but they evolved over time and Rejuvination might just be their zenith, (although I do love Cabbage Alley too).

Cheers.

Picture Book... how can you think about Stevie Wonder and not think about Superstition?
