  1. [quote name='redstriper' post='1090044' date='Jan 15 2011, 12:21 AM']Neck pup jazz = hollow.
    Precision = solid.[/quote]

    That's exactly the way i'd describe it. As a one time sax player, i'd hear stories about player's tones.
    One claim was that, if you could section that tone, cut it in half and study its composition, some would have a an oval, or elliptical profile with a solid middle. Some would have grainy fillings, some would be hollow and so on...

    is this bollocks in the bass world?

    the P is thick, heavy on the fundamental, whereas the J has the ability to 'spread' it's tone.

    I'm sure when it's in, you'll get it soon after; we have had great service from then, even around Christmas time.
    I was sorely tempted, their prices are great.

  3. [quote name='Shire' post='1079577' date='Jan 6 2011, 10:24 AM']Thanks! Think I'm going to try my first set of flats on her because I think those are the original strings and I want to see what all the fuss is about :)

    Off to use the search function... :lol:[/quote]
    Great. I have mine booked in for this weekend to get some put on. :)

  4. As description, bought off peety [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=106176&hl="]HERE[/url] back in November but played a few hours in dining room. never left house or been modified.
    Pickguard film been taken off and that's it!
    Any detailed pics just feel free to ask but I have just nicked the old ones off the original sale as the bass is just the same condition.
    You too, will also get the padded gig bag.
    I'm in NE Yorkshire/Teesside but will dispatch anywhere.
    £240 posted.
    Cheers
    SORRY. Withdrawn, may go back on in a couple of weeks. Thanks for the PMs.

  5. Well I'm not playing in a band setting yet but having grown use to my J, I thought a slim neck was the way to go. However, upon getting a cheaper P, i quickly grew to like the thicker neck. The body shape feels no different to me yet and I love the deep, thick sound that the P produces.
    The jury's still out with me. Obviously my Fender J is a better made instrument so I'd need a HW1 P to do a favourable comparison :) but i do love them both.

  6. Received my Squier CV '60s P around 24 hours after I paid for it as described, unmarked and packed really well with a gig bag too!
    Obviously a great guy to deal with; potential buyers need not be concerned in any way.
    Thanks Steve.

  7. [quote name='peety' post='984684' date='Oct 11 2010, 06:20 PM']For sale is my Classiv vibe P bass in fiesta red, i only bought this last week as a back up however have since aquired a G&L 2000 and really like it so the classic vibe is now surplus to requiements.

    .This bass is only a week old, has never been gigged in facct has been played for less than an hour at home. Still has all tags and plasatic covers, the bass is essentially brand new but obviously can not be described as such as i have played it.

    At work at moment so will post some pics later. bass cost me £279 so am looking for £250 posted and i will throw in a padded gigbag as well.
