aye indeed it was mate

i do like a good slapper or two.

[quote name='Rayman' post='24415' date='Jun 28 2007, 01:43 PM']That's wicked, by far the best colour for those. The switches scare me off though, what do they all do?[/quote]


dead easy really, top switch is for the active circuit i.e. on or off
there are two wheel type adjusters for active treble & bass.
at the bottom an on-off switch for each pickup & a series switch for the pickups ( S1 switch stylee )
plus master volume & tone controls.

the master tone control works when the bass is in active or passive mode -- cool eh?
this bass really does sound very good,its in danger of becoming my no. 1 bass.

it sounds absolutely effin ace,the sheer amount of tones available is incredible & bulid quality is extremely good too,& it plays like a dream.
the only thing wrong with it is a little bit of laquer missing from the top edge of the neck near the nut (chipped off) but it came with a fender gig bag (its brand new btw) & i paid £480.00 for it.
bloody bargain eh ?

i bought the Precision of ebay last night & should get me mits on it some time tomorrow,hopefully.
its a 96,never seen one that colour though.

i play in a blues band "The Growlers" (for 11 years) & i must confess when we first started i wasn't into blues at all,prefering Sabbath,Led Zep,Maiden etc but my brov' ,who's our lead guitarist,is SRV mad.So i listerned to a lot of Tommy's playing to get the feel of the blues mojo thing & i always thought he is a damn fine player,really driving the songs along.
+ because my brother thinks he's Yorkshire's answer to SRV we have to tune down a half tone which made jamming along with the CD's easier.

tried logging onto the old Bassworld t'other day (first time in ages) & its not there.
but luckily i've found y'all again.
so hello there
