  1. Hi Interested in the bridge, is this the standard USA 3 screw version that will fit the '51 reissue please? Thanks
  2. Bought '51 precision from Lozz,he delivered it personally to my door, rather than courier the bass. Top bloke, highly recommended. Thanks again.
  3. [quote name='Linus27' post='939090' date='Aug 28 2010, 10:57 PM']It will be slab body. They all were.[/quote] Yeh,was just the photo up there looks very rounded compared to the one i used to have, and wish i still had. lol
  4. Does this have a contoured body or slab sided as per the original, also does the price mentioned only reflect the value of a swap or possible cash sale price? Thanks
  5. You could try Hibernian violins in Malvern Link, Paddy always does a good job. [url="http://www.hillsarts.co.uk/hibernianviolins/"]http://www.hillsarts.co.uk/hibernianviolins/[/url]
  6. [quote name='alanbass1' post='846414' date='May 24 2010, 11:12 AM']Get in line if it is![/quote] I asked the same on the 20th, still haven't heard, so presumably it sold.
  7. I presume these pick ups are the same in the 57 reissues as well? Whats the volume like from them(assuming they've been used in a bass that is ), reason being i have a mex 50s reissue and although the sound is good, its output is a bit quiet now with roto 77s on, and this set up would make a good replacement i think.
  8. Shame that, on the up shot the Precision is fantastic, certainly a keeper, though I might put a standard volume pot in at some point i think.lol Use of the pics is fine mate, good luck with the stingray hunt.
  9. [quote name='voxpop' post='493977' date='May 21 2009, 09:47 AM']I have a very nice Windmill Tay Tee Jazz for trade.......

  10. [quote name='sjc75' post='493817' date='May 20 2009, 11:13 PM']I've just listed a rare Warwick Thumb 4 B/O in the forum....I had a Clover 5 with Delano's in it and it was very nice so would defo be interested in your Sandberg if you want to have a look at the Thumb....cheers S[/quote] Warwicks aren't really my thing really, thanks for the offer though.
  11. I have a Sandberg ken taylor 5, in trans blueburst over an ash body, 3 band active EQ, push/pull pot on volume for passive option, 2 MM style Delano humbuckers. Near mint condition apart from one small ding on the headstock, no scratches or dents on the body.

Would be interested in trades for US Fender jazz basses, possibly Precisions, US vintage reissue '62 jazz or Precision, or Sandberg J and P type basses. Located in West Midlands
  12. [quote name='grumble' post='469140' date='Apr 21 2009, 11:08 PM']Put this up for sale in 6 months or so and I will have it, picked up a new bass a couple of months back and 'er indoors would remove parts of my anatomy if went for this. Shame coz I fancy a crack at a fiver and the price is right.[/quote] Could still go for it, if you keep it quiet, one bass looks much the same as the next to most women i've found, so she may not notice straight off. lol
  13. [quote name='Beedster' post='467556' date='Apr 20 2009, 03:38 PM']No, sorry. The lined fretless is likely to be however (pretty much unused '62 reissue with reverse tuners).[/quote] I assume it would be possible to get the lines replaced by a luthier to match the colour of the fingerboard, likewise with the side dots?
  14. [quote name='Beedster' post='467355' date='Apr 20 2009, 12:04 PM']I should add that moving from lined to unlined necks - and surprisingly vice-versa - is not as easy as you'd think. In fact, I've been unable to make the move to lined from unlined as having become so used to working from dot markers [u]at[/u] the fret position (as they are on an unlined neck) as opposed to [u]between[/u] the fretlines (as they are on a lined neck). So, whilst I thought buying a lined fretless neck would improve my intonation, it's actually made it worse as a result of the "should I be fingering at the dot or at the line line" confusion when I'm playing! I'm either going to sell my MIJ lined neck (I have two '70's unlined necks as well), or get some dots put at the fretlines so that it's consistent with the unlined necks.[/quote] Are the 70s unlined necks for sale?
  15. Hi all, i am putting up for sale my Yamaha RBX765A, i acquired this recently but don't get on well with the modern small body design, as i'm used to Fender basses and find them most comfortable to play and what not . It's in good condition overall, has a few scratches on the back, and the back bottom edge which i've photographed as best i could, slight tarnishing to the gold hardware, other than that there are no issues as far as i can see. Located in Kidderminster, West mids.

  16. Custom shop decal below cheap-o machines, plus a corona neckplate? How rare!!

    *SOLD*

    Did I PM about this already?
  18. Sure you couldn't be tempted with a Sandberg 5 string?
  19. [quote name='warwickhunt' post='461142' date='Apr 13 2009, 12:26 PM']I think it's a safe assumption it will turn out to be a thumb rest/anchor; It's just about spot on positionally for someone used to a 2 pup bass... or at least it's exactly what I would have done! [/quote] I wondered if it was, i've never seen one that shape before though. lol I prefer to play over the pickup on precision and jazz basses personally, so i've never really used such a device.
  20. Whats that little black thing to the left of the E string below the pickup cover, it looks like something nailed to the body in that pic?
