  1. [quote name='Happy Jack' post='452586' date='Apr 2 2009, 05:07 PM']So how well do you know this guy, Andy? [/quote] Hi there, think Alex means the bass [i]he[/i] sold used to be mine... know the Beeps for .. oh let's just say over 25!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yrs. Don't know Modo. Used my Harlequin on several albums.. records really well... does't look as though it would but does a fabby Jazz impression Assuming it's me you're talking to... now i'm confused... not difflick. Andy
  2. Hi there, gorgeous, I had the only one of these that came to Scotland, bought it new for knock down £999 in the late eighties (if memory serves) God knows how much that would be now...., the finish is 'Harlequin' the model is a 'Player'. Seen the body he still has when I was down ordering my six... although it's bolt on it has much more in common with a Rumour than a Spitfire/Standard.. got to be worth about the same as a Rumour of the same spec. Good luck.. if you have any issues Bernie's a top bloke and will happily help... see the GB Guitars website. Andy
  3. Hi there, sorry been fixing the !"£"!"££$$% computer all night...... I'm in Edinburgh and work in Glasgow if you would want to try it... happy to post/courier anywhere. Andy
  4. Hi all, recently aquired this with the intention of having some work/restoration done..... ran out of money... huh.gif It's got a fair amount of dings to the body but the back of the neck is clean. It's had umpty (technical term) sets of tuners on it so several visible old screw holes... I put a set of seventies Grovers (from an old Gibson) on it.. the ones with the 'wavy' button (cost me £50). It needs the fingerboard dressed as there is a slight buzz at the third pos. on the E string. Best I've been quoted has been £80. Has a fairly good gig bag. It has the twin large bare polepiece brown single coils, pup selector, active/passive switch, three band EQ (only works when 'active'), master volume and two EQs for use in either passive or active modes. Sounds great. Some of the pots can be a bit crackly. There you have it. Got to be a bargain at £200.

  15. Hi all... been playng for 35 yrs.... finally gave up on all of the options.. gone back to a USA '75 Re-issue Jazz. Happy as a pig in ****. Anyone else made lots of moves only to find out their original choice was the right one? Im amazed that I actually do consider the in between tme (25 yrs!!!!!!!!!!) a 'distraction' Really not being Fender biased... just wonderig how many of us 'know' what's right but still spend mega bucks proving ourselves right? If i am the only one... good on you all.. if i'm not>>> thanks for allowing me to be 'normal' Balders

  17. Hi there and welcome, not been in Canada since the 125th Celebrations in '93 (was over ggging for two weeks in Montreal and Ottawa...beautiful place)... lovely looking bass, may help your cause to stick a price in £ bearing in mind we'd have to add import duty and shipping and then the dreaded VAT on the lot...good luck.

  20. Got one of these.... FANTASTIC... when it comes to 'clarity' and 'punch' there's no comptition and the buld quality is beyond reproach.... good luck with the sale .. but tough luck as it will be hard to get somethng to the job in its place. Also one of the easest to wear basses i've owned, well balanced and light. Good luck Andy
