Beautiful. Why did you go for a two saddle bridge, these are notoriously difficult to get intonated?

For sale a 2013 Fender Squier Vintage Modified P-Bass in rare Candy Apple Red, in excellent used condition, a few marks consistent with age and normal use. There’s numerous threads online about how good these are, and ‘Bang for Buck’ etc. I’d been looking for one of these for years, as they rarely come up for sale, especially in Candy Apple Red, however a recent purchase of my dream bass means this is now for sale. Comes in a solid Gator Deluxe ABS hardcase.

Solid agathis body, amber tinted lacquered maple neck, with rosewood slab fretboard - recently cleaned and lemon oiled. Lightweight at only 7.6 lbs, with Fender-Designed Alnico Precision pickup, and Jazz pickup (DiMarzio style). Original heavy duty bridge. Ernie Ball strings.

SOLD

Picked up an ivory (ahem... Cream) tmb30 recently, and like others have said, a very nice ss bass. Particularly impressed by the pickups, the J in the PJ actually sounds like a J (honky), many inexpensive PJ's I've owned over the years the J always lacks presence - but not in this bass. Both pickups fairly well balanced in terms of output, which there's plenty.

One thing I have noticed about this version, is that ibanez have changed one or two things from the previous models, most obvious is the black pickguard is now solid black, not 3-ply anymore. Which I guess would look great on black talmans, if you wanted the stealth look (all black).

All in all a decent short scale, with rounds it does the crunchy rock sound very well. Very cool.

Aidan brought a P body from me, excellent communication and fast payment. Thanks again.

For sale is my lovely 1983 Squier SQ Precision, Made in Japan by FujiGen Gakki.

It is 7.5, it's the last of the MIJ squires, which were based on the late 50s, early 60s fenders.

Will purchased a lovely jazz from myself. Fast payment, excellent communication. Very nice guy.

Sorted now. Thanks.

It's a mid 70s Kay, the wood colour headstock were the early ones, later they had a gloss black headstock in the late 70s and early 80s.

A secret with these is ordinarily they have an ok vintage sound. But put an overdrive or fuzz in the chain and it'll sound awesome. Lots of fun.
