  1. I have exactly this year/model bass, unmodded. Fantastic, best of luck with the sale, Karl.
  2. [quote name='Johnston' post='1179879' date='Mar 28 2011, 07:04 PM']and could kill you with her little finger.[/quote] Death by Ziva, die happy . Karl.
  3. PM's replied to. To publically answer a couple of questions. 99% certain it's the discontinued 75JB-US non export. Current Japanese 75's seem to start just north of £800, plus delivery from Japan, plus all the import stuff, so probably not much change from £1000 to bring one over. A used Japanese 62 re-issue went for £720 on FEEBay couple of weeks ago, so sorry, I don't think I'm asking too much. White also seems relatively uncommon, especially with rosewood/blocks. Cheers, Karl.
  4. Sorry, couldn't get past Johnston's avatar, the world's most beautiful woman. . Karl.
  5. Didn't know about this relationship. If the bass in the pictue was blocks/bound, I'd be camped outside . (Assuming my link works).

  6. [quote name='Bassassin' post='1178151' date='Mar 27 2011, 12:19 PM'] If only I could persuade my better half to pay for my Ebay shenanigans! Anyway I'm genuinely really surprised it didn't get any other bids. Never fear though, I don't intend to profiteer on this one - I have a maple/blocks JapCrap neck I've had for literally years which should slot straight in. Not sure how severe this "distressing" is likely to be, but I'm sorely tempted to turn the bass into an unofficial Dennis Dunaway signature model anyway: J.[/quote] Ah, bring back Halo of Flies!!!!!
  7. Mr Cleese taught Mr Tino everything about customer service . Karl.
  8. [quote name='Bassassin' post='1176764' date='Mar 26 2011, 12:19 AM']Just spotted that & jumped on here to post it myself. It prompted me to wonder about a person as delusional as this seller plainly is. Are they just a harmless and oddly charming eccentric who can sometimes momentarily make the world a brighter place with their amusing whimsical fantasies, or should they be locked up, kept subdued and closely monitored, for the sake of their own safety & that of the community? I just don't know. Jon.[/quote] The latter, then, their equipment auctioned to pay for their sins. 99p start of course . Karl.
  9. Went to Grange Hill?
  10. Sorry Bilbo, just insanely jealous of musicians who read. Down to me being bone idle I guess. Not funny, true . Karl.
  11. Isn't an orchestra, playing classical music, a covers band? . Karl.
  12. I don't suppose it's one of the rarer ones with 1.5 inch nut width is it? Cheers, Karl.
  13. [quote name='chaypup' post='1173482' date='Mar 23 2011, 04:24 PM']Fixed![/quote] Ohhhhh yus . Karl.
  14. Most of the gigs I do, turn round too quickly and you brain the guitarist . Karl.
  15. Many thanks fellas. Not really sure what non Fender-y options there are, but really just looking for the simplicity of a P pick up, rather than P/J. It's a "classic rock" covers band I'm in so the P really does cover most of it. Cheers, Karl.
  16. So, I can't really find a P body with jazz neck. Lakland's Mr Dunn would do nicely, rockin hoss sh*t sadly. Got to thinking, would it be possible to take the body of a classic vibe P and just bolt on the neck from a Vintage modified Jazz, or are they going be all sorts of complications? Any advice gratefully received, cheers, Karl.
  17. [quote name='BurritoBass' post='1172561' date='Mar 22 2011, 08:33 PM']I think there is a lot these days about deaths & anniversaries of those deaths so I'm surprised this one slipped by. I think it's fair to say the legacy lives on though [/quote] Yeah, just a bit!

    Jazz

    Mobile phone photo's but it's all I've got. '75 re-issue Japanese Non Export '08 Lakland DJ. Both loved to death . Karl. Edit, should have taken a new photo of the '75, with it's new bridge saddle screw .
  19. [quote name='Ou7shined' post='1171364' date='Mar 21 2011, 09:31 PM']Excellent idea. This needs to be stickyfied.[/quote] Absolutely, brilliant work Musky, many thanks. Karl.
  20. That's a blow Tom but it will soon go. You make a comment that it's a bit more expensive than most, well, a lovely '62 Japanese re-issue went on FEEBay for £720 last week. Something less common still seems to command a premium. Good luck, Karl.
  21. That's 4 real thing P threads going on at the mo. Any Mods think it may be worth "Pinning". I know it's been suggested that these are reported to FEEBay, but there needs to be a very high level of certainty before that happens. Food for thought I guess.
  22. Hondo. He uses the R word, I didn't and mine still got pulled. [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Hondo-11-Stereo-Bass-Guitar-Rickenbacker-4001-style-/150575389768?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item230efe1c48"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Hondo-11-Stereo-Bass...=item230efe1c48[/url]
  23. [quote name='Musky' post='1169094' date='Mar 20 2011, 02:05 AM']None of them? [/quote] What, only one output socket? My CMI has 2. . Weren't the origins of Fender Japan in Faker-dom? Karl.
  24. Follow link below, this member seems to be looking for one. Good luck, Karl. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=126531"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=126531[/url]
  25. [quote name='spinynorman' post='1168598' date='Mar 19 2011, 06:39 PM']The seller for this auction has contacted me and assured me there was nothing sinister about the private auction. I'm quite happy to accept his assurance. Nigel - since you're a member now, come in and join the fun.[/quote] Never thought for a moment there was, I was just amazed by how much it went for. Nigel, yup, join the fun and the terminal gas . Karl.
