nice one you guys
-
thanks guys,you're correct--i'd have slapped myself if it'd gone. it is a beautiful bass in all respects + i has a little sentimental value too,a very good freind of mine sold me it & he's in his 60's(if you catch my drift) so i really need to keep it. in fact if i ever offer it for sale again some one call me a twat -
nice collection,i've just tuened propper green.

[quote name='Frusty' post='338271' date='Nov 27 2008, 12:58 PM']I want this bass....please put a price on it for me so that I know that I can't afford it - will put me out of misery [/quote] LOL isn't GAS ace. ok i paid £850.00 for this a year ago so i want £750.00 for it now which i think is a fair price for such a nice bass go you can afford it it's only money

2002 U.S. vintage reissue P bass in sunburst,with origional hard case & astray/pickup covers. very good condition with just 3 very minor paint chips. this is a lovely bass & plays/sounds just like a P bass should. it's strung with Ernie Ball group IV flats which suit it perfectly. i'm not exactly shure how much it's worth so make me a sensible offer & i'll think on it. cheers, art'

[quote name='bassbloke' post='335110' date='Nov 23 2008, 08:52 PM']I bought one a couple of weeks ago. Sound, feel and appearance are all fantastic. However, it suffers from the same problem as other active Fenders - the preamp is a bit all or nothing and I have Audere preamps in my other two Fenders and the passive style tone is so handy. Reckon I might have to get the preamp in this one upgraded. Audere also offer passive switching on the modular preamps.[/quote] i like the preamp on this,it's the only active bass that i've liked the stock preamp on ,but if i fall out with it i'll check these out. the passive switch would be a bonus though. cheers.

hi,after making a rash purchase on saturday (see gear porn ) i may want to sell this bass on. it's a MIM Fender P bass in electron blue,bought new by me in march this year & blinged somewhat. here's a pic its had- a genuine Fender white pearl s/plate Gotoh 201 bridge (gold) Gotoh vintage reverse tuners (gold) Gotoh nech plate (gold) Gotoh strap buttons (gold) unknown make string tree (gold) WD music vol/tone knobs (gold)-- solid brass i think. all fitting/screws replaced (gold) (you may think i like gold hardware ) a very new set of Ernie Ball group iv flatwounds (my fave' flats by far) an extremely fantastic setup (by me ) altogether this bass stands me at £550.00 but i know what cash is like at the mo so i'd like a measley £350.00 for it,which i reckon is a fair price. cheers, art'. ohh btw i'll chuck in all the origional hardware & s/plate f.o.c. aswell. + a Fender gig bag

[quote name='EssentialTension' post='334841' date='Nov 23 2008, 02:59 PM']For me its weak point is the lack of passive switching - that would be a bonus I think.[/quote] yes i agree i have looked for a passive switch but hey when it sounds this good who cares

[quote name='EssentialTension' post='334537' date='Nov 22 2008, 07:09 PM']I have the same bass but with rosewood - you can see it in my avatar. I know some people don't care for the American Deluxes but to me this is a great bass in a great colour. I love the neck. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.[/quote] cheers mate. they really are lovely basses,i'd never even considered one before but just spotted it on the wall & fell in lust with it. i agree about the neck-this has the best neck & fretwork of any bass i've ever owned.

[quote name='lonestar' post='334565' date='Nov 22 2008, 09:07 PM']Sounds like a perfect Saturday to me. No credit crunch up north then?! Nice bass bet it sounds as good as it looks. I'm currently saving up to buy some strings[/quote] i know what you mean,i'll sh*te me pants when me visa bill arrives. oh well

thanks guys she really is a beauty.

walked into PMT leeds this afternoon & spotted a rather nice P bass on the wall & i just had to have a go. then i just had to buy it you know how it is. anyhow i managed to haggle £100.00 off,then they said they gave a free 3 year warranty which includes free setups too,wicked. the guitar tech' set it up as i was paying for it & even he commented on how good the neck is-lowest action i've ever seen on a Fender & no rattles good service or what. the bass plays beautifully & sounds ace (pitty about the ham fisted twat playing it ) anyway enough prattle,here's some crap photos taken in this afternoon's Yorkshire gloom. btw my sh*te pic's don't do it justice.

[quote name='thebeat' post='333701' date='Nov 21 2008, 12:54 PM']And others like being mysterious Rude? Miss the 'thanks' and 'no, thanks' did you? Why not just put the price and location and be done with it? [/quote] i thought the mods might take a dim view of me advertising for my local shop-hence the mystery. but i reckon it may well go for less than £500.00,which is less than mine cost & less than i've seen 'em anywhere else. its in a shop in harrogate which might possibly be called "rock steady music" whose phone number may be 01423 529000. & the bloke to ask for may be called Phil. who knows ?

[quote name='AndyMartin' post='333610' date='Nov 21 2008, 09:19 AM']Same here. I think they only do them in black and sunburst which I've already got. Pity because I just love those block markers. Now, CAR or LPB and I'd be up there this morning.[/quote] that's the '70s one you're thinking of mate. the '60s one doesn't have the block markers or bound neck,it comes in black,white or 3tsb.

[quote name='andy67' post='330566' date='Nov 17 2008, 01:21 PM']can't comment on the b2re but...the b410hlf is a superb cab! it is the cheaper series with the svt410hlf being the more expensive big brother.[/quote] +1 damn fine cabs,easily the best sounding cab i've ever heard or used.
