  1. Well. as ever…p basses and me don’t get on. I’m such a dunce.
  2. Bought for a Project. The project didn’t need more bits. Precision basses and I don’t get on. I will learn one day. Eventually. Sealed BA2 bridge. In Manchester Will post.
  3. Well. As ever, spent a fortune putting a bass together and realised the “chase” was the buzz and I don’t play nearly enough to need. Also a P. Must be my 20th Precision. I “want” and “Need” and then realise I just need to learn how to play. Body, bridge, pickups, pickguard all MIJ 62 reissue from the 1990s. Has swirl marks and dinks/knocks commensurate with 30 years. Some scratches on back. Neck is MiM 70’s “reissue” precision neck, bound and blocks. Came to me without a nut. Fender Micarta nut bought - seems the binding gave when the original nut was removed; this is glued and set, but you can see about 12mm of disruption in the lacquer. I was going to sand and refinish, but it could end up looking worse. Hipshot Lollipops. Fender pickup cover Big Yamaha Japan strap buttons (proper job). Plays ace, sounds ace - if you like P’s, which…I do and don’t 😂 wearing Ernie Ball slinky’s, will come with spare flats which have life left. Hard case - optional. £25 Will ship if needed. anyhow, it’s here in Manchester. Happy to consider trades.
  4. I’m in - just messing with something as we speak…
  5. Stop it. You dutty boy.
  6. Jeff sent me a badass 2. fast shipping, great price, packed well. heroic.
  7. Bought a bass body from me - was really easy and great comms. brilliant stuff!
  8. That is a lovely looking thing
  9. We’ll see… @Bunionmight have a BA2 (thanks though mate!)
  10. I’m going to hold out for a used one - that way I won’t “lose” £40 to find out. I did change my Mendel to a bbot - not sure what informed that decision…think it was because I swapped to TI flats and didn’t see the point of adding sustain to dead flats.
  11. And we’re done…
  12. Looking what I can sell for £750!
  13. Well, I just can’t afford a neck (would love a status J neck or something) and I’ve got loads more to shell out for.
  14. Just putting this out there. Ok, the full basses seem to be fetching £600 ish (some listed at £700+) this has a player series P pickup in the place of the humbucker (didn’t work as well as trad P) which is now sold. Blacktop back pickguard included if you fancy it - it’s for housing the humbucker now gone…the mint green is fender “pure vintage” 63 precision with wide bevel. it’s In overall very good Nick, will have fender strap buttons on it, not the yamaha ones. has the original neck plate (I don’t have spare screws) and I also have a Gotoh string tree if you needs it for the neck you choose. Trav
  15. we’ll see - a good friend has enquired on behalf of a mate of his. I could do with a big parts bin empty… I’ve done a quick comparison of the mint on the black. Looks like it’s “trying” to look vintage…quite like the stark contrast… hmm.
  16. 90’s Japan reissue body. 2017 Mexico Block and bound neck Hipshot Lollipops. affectionately known as the Geddy P. born today on my kitchen table.
  17. Yeah - will keep an eye out once payday comes round 😉
  18. I’ve got a packet of pickguard screws on the way as that’s one of the few things I didn’t get with the MIJ body. So it won’t be a big deal to try - not 100% sure it will work. I’ve also used my spare Yamaha big strap buttons on the white body so will swap them out as they’re ace, but a bugger to get hold of. no rash decisions - might see if any interesting necks come up for the white body; I’ve a spare Gotoh string tree in a packet and a spare set of resolite machineheads.
  19. No, quite enjoying the geddy B/W aesthetic. I’ve had 2 GL jazz basses…sold when chasing other gear… The Japanese one I had was black, and a bit weighty. The Mex one I had was mega light and sunburst. Reckon another Black one might be on the cards… now…what to do with this stuff…
  20. It may 😂
