[quote name='Bigwan' timestamp='1337414502' post='1659454'] The OCD in me says you need a set square!!! Sweet little collection! [/quote] I'm glad it's not just me regarding the OCD thing!

[quote name='Protium' timestamp='1337098703' post='1655446'] Five 'undred euro?! You won't see penny one from me you slag! Buy one, clone 10 and make your money back? [/quote] The odd thing is when you add it to the cart it increases by another 89 euro! Then I guess you'd have to add shipping, madness IMO! I bought one of those clones recently - it's okay for the money (I paid around £46.00 including shipping IIRC).

[quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1335998240' post='1639460'] The great irony is that when you read the ebay version for the P (the one that got the P thread pulled), the description would have sat fairly well here whereas this ^ is par for the course for the bay. [/quote] My thoughts exactly Rich - almost as if it's been copied & pasted straight from the Ebay listing!?

[quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1335822549' post='1636713'] The fella doesn't know the forum rules, he now does. [/quote] Ignorance doesn't carry any weight I'm afraid....one should be aware of the rules [b]before[/b] posting! With regards his pricing see my previous post! As previously posted by others, no one is going to "get rich quick" by buying this at the sellers agreed price and subsequently offering it for sale? As I stated before, I don't wish to slight anyone, however, after [b]offering the asking price[/b] I was then e-mailed (privately) asking if I'd like to increase my offer! That is what I object to!

[quote name='warwickhunt' timestamp='1335797508' post='1636152'] In fact it is! Though I agree with your sentiments and everyone would probably want to help this guy out, you may as well say that the rule re. pricing be ditched and we invite highest offers. However, the powers-that-be have made a ruling that a price be set and you aren't to offer higher bids above that (that'll be ebay's job). As has been pointed out, it'll not go for a whole heap more than has been offered (though I'd not sell mine so cheaply) and in fact folks might get a bit miffed at bidding to get the item (hence the ruling that we state prices and stick to them) and they may even withdraw interest. I'm not having a dig at the seller, I feel sorry for anyone who has fallen on hard times. [/quote] +1 A while back I was in precisely the same situation, I had to raise some cash (and quickly too) so ended up selling my Streamer Stage 1 and also my beloved '68 Fender P - a truly gut wrenching experience at the time and one I'd certainly not want to experience again. The point of this post was to say that I had made my mind up about price of the two basses to be sold and stuck with it - I'm sure I could have held out for more, but as I said I needed the cash to satisfy the mortgage lender - without rules where would we be? The P Bass has been since replaced with another '68 although not quite as nice as the last one and I was hoping the this would have replaced the Streamer (I'd offered the full asking price) but obviously this was not to be. This is not meant as a slight to anyone at all - just venting that's all!

I'm no expert on such things, this looks very nice but a tad iffy to me? Thoughts? [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1972-USA-Fender-JAZZ-Bass-BLACK-hardly-played-Original-Case-/280864471524?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item4164d3b9e4#ht_500wt_1413"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1972-USA-Fender-JAZZ-Bass-BLACK-hardly-played-Original-Case-/280864471524?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item4164d3b9e4#ht_500wt_1413[/url] It's being sold as original 70's but appears to have a Badass fitted and certainly different pickups to mine? I also thought the serial number on 70's was on the front of the headstock? Mine's a later '78 and that does?

Nice one Shep! Just had a read through - really useful - I wasn't aware of loop inverters, sounds cool!

[quote name='GarethFlatlands' timestamp='1334956367' post='1624163'] I'd love to try a Ric but they seem like a hard bass to live with with their quirks. They do have a unique sound that I like but they seem like a rich mans instrument. [/quote] I aint rich - ask my Bank Manager!

I'm [b]really[/b] gassing for an Oly White one of these! Must resist - at least until month end... Sunburst sure looks sweet though!
