Just ignore me. I see that there were two versions of the Telecaster bass. One from 68-71 which had the single coil and one from 71-79 which had the big humbucker. Mystery solved! -
Can you just confirm something because I an obviously getting my pickups mixed up here. I understood a 70s Telecaster bass to be a different animal than the 50s precision bass. The Telecaster bass, I thought, had a big chrome covered humbucker type pickup located near the neck. Is this the type of pickup which you have fitted to your bass in place of the original? Or have you fitted a single coil pickup similar to the original but a beefed up version? Sorry to have to ask it's just that I'm not sure as to what title is applied to what pickup.

Stunning photography Anndra and not just for the obvious reasons! -
Let's be kind here and give our new friend a wee bit of time to price this beauty. -
PM sent.

I hope that the re-introduction of the DJ4 makes the 1st generation DJs more collectable!

They are the Daddy. The absolute Daddy!

1973 Fender Precision Bass - Natural. Light weight Ash
Hutton replied to cardinaljay's topic in Basses For Sale
Not an unreasonable price at all but it is the middle of December with Christmas approaching and we are in the middle of a dreadful economic malaise. Maybe these things have got something to do with it. Hopefully someone can shake off the above reasons and grab themselves a nice bass. All the best! -
Just because you mentioned it I played an American Special and it was very nice. I beleive this is what has taken over from the Highway One.
-
Everyone should also remember that price is not up for discussion or comment. You like the bass, you pay what the seller asks. If you don't have the money you don't buy the bass. But you don't question what the seller is asking unless you send a pm. -
Where in London are you based?

[quote name='Lysdexia' timestamp='1320931109' post='1433307'] Thank-you Sir! How's life treating you in the far north? [/quote] Fine thanks my friend. I'm glad I made the move up here apart from stupid couriers charging extra cos they think I live in the Highlands and Islands. Best of luck with the sale! -
Having traded with Anndra in the past everybody should feel very confident that the bass is exactly as it appears in these superb shots. Thorough gentleman to deal with. Have no worries all you Ric 4003 owners!

If it's your bass then you can do what you like with it, just never let it see the light of day.

I just don't understand why ebay don't do anything when an auction is reported as obviously being a wrongun. Is it at all possible that they contact the seller and buyer and try to resolve the issue without anyone else knowing. It really does dent any confidence I would have in buying anything of value from ebay.
-
I always think that it helps a sale to post pics here as opposed to email. I may be wrong however. Best of luck with the trade/sale.

Which Basschatters bass would you most like to own? (and why?)
Hutton replied to EBS_freak's topic in Bass Guitars
I was really quite happy with my stuff and not really coveting anybody else's bass until I saw a one-year old Precision for sale. I had fancied one of the new Amercian Standard Precisions to add to my other two precisions and when Mr. Zed was selling his 2010 sunburst and maple neck precision I kept going back to the ad. After some domestic negotiation the inevitable happened and the bass now resides in chez Hutton. What a cracker it is too!! -
I saw Beverley Knight and her band playing Glasgow a couple of years ago. It was a great gig. Lots of energy and superb musicianship all round. The only problem was two bloody women who were standing behind me and talking incessantly about bugger all in particular all through the gig. Why did they bother paying money to go to the gig? They could have sat at home with a box of maltesers and talked until their tongues were frayed at the edges.

Extremely nice bass Rick. However, I preferred it without the relic treatment.
-
I have a recollection from the 70s or it was maybe early 80s of Suzi giving away one of her basses to be auctioned for a TV charity event. It might have been the early days of children in need. Anyway, Suzi's ok with me. I was a teenager in the 70s when she was rampaging around in tight leather. Enough said!

I'm getting confused. Is this thread about someone selling a bass, if so, then a price should now be stated. If it's a discussion about values, which I quite like the look of, then should it not shift to 'Basses' or 'General Bass Discussion'?
-
My go to bass is my 62 reissue.

[quote name='Norris' timestamp='1320239881' post='1424134'] My 1999 US standard Jazz has Schaller locks fitted. You still have to buy a set to get the bits that go on the strap anyway Edit: Corrected year of bass - doh! [/quote] The new Fenders that I purchased had the strap part included amongst the case candy. You can usually get individual bits from Ebay and Allparts.
-
Funny isn't it. I've never had a problem with them. They are on all my basses.
-
I picked up these strapbuttons the other day. Fender American Series made by Schaller. Interesting!
