  1. Met up halfway with Stuart for a trade. We were both in a bit of a rush but got to have a quick bass talk (always important) No hassle whatsoever, would recommend to anyone!

    Cheers, JM

  2. Hi All,

    As the topic states, I have a 09 HW1 Jazz in midnight wine and I am looking for a Precision in trade

    Mine is in good overall condition, little bit of buckle rash on the back and a tiny ding on the bottom of the lower horn. Currently strung with Marcus Miller fatbeams and sounds pretty great in my opinion. Comes with the usual fender logo gigbag and truss tool etc.

    I am looking specifically for a Sunburst or Black Precision, either HW1 or MIM, upgrades are good (Badass II's etc). If it has a black pickguard then even better! Would prefer RW fretboard, but my mind is open. I am also open to a little bit of cash being needed either way on the trade.

    If anyone has anything along these lines then please chuck me a PM and I will send pics etc on request.


    Thanks in advance, JM!

  3. Hello fellow BC'ers.

    I am looking to upgrade the pickups on my 09 HW1 Jazz bass. I am after some advice on what ones to go for. I want to keep it passive, and I play mostly Jazz, Funk, Blues and Motown.

    What pickups should I consider, and how much of a job will be it for me to fit them myself?


    Regards, JM

  4. Hi There,


    I have for sale an as new condition Squier Classic Vibe 50's Strat. I have had it since xmas, but have played it around 6-8 times only. (Prefer my basses).

    [url="http://www.squierguitars.com/products/search.php?partno=0303000503"]Specs etc[/url].

    It's the same as in the above link, sunburst finish etc. and will also include a ritter gigbag to offer a little bit of protection. I do however have the original box that it was shipped in which is in perfect condition.

    I would prefer a pickup or local delivery (done by myself), Im based near bournemouth on the southcoast and willing to deliver out to a 35mile radius of here for 10 quid on top of the guitar cost. I dont really like couriers but if you do wish to arrange one the item will be packed to a high standard.

    I am looking for £160 for this little beauty, the quality really is top notch for a squier as is to be expected from the classic vibe series.











    I am also looking to sell a Vox VT30 Combo, It has a single valve in the pre-amp and a whole host of built in modelling and effects. It was purchased the same time as the Strat and as such is in excellent as new condition including all original packaging, Manual and Kettle lead.

    It is a great little amp which features a built in attentuator so you can drive the pre-amp without annoying the neighbours and has a whole bunch of "famous" pre-sets that are pre-programmed in. Same rules apply for delivery or collection, although it is worth noting that the shop box is quite thin and not really suitable for shipping purposes.

    These retail at £150 everywhere, as such I am looking for £75 for mine.





    Thanks for reading!

  5. Took a leap and ordered one from online, same place I have purchased another guitar from and had no problems.

    Unfortunately no such luck this time. The list of horrors...

    Box was open as well as dented and torn on the side.
    NO protection whatsoever inside apart from a small cardboard headstock sleeve.
    Split in the body which had been lacquered over when it was finished.
    Black "binding" turned my hands black. Overflowed onto the fretboard and a large dot next to one of the fret markers.
    Flat spots on the neck, rough feeling fret edges.
    A flat spot on the top of the headstock from what looks like an impact.
    1st Fret marking scraped down to the wood.
    Brown speckles on the headstock wood, Could be damp/water marks.
    Only 2 screws on the scratchplate are screwed in square.

    Awaiting a replacement now, Fingers x'ed this next one is better as i really like the look and the sound from the brief testing I was able to do.

    Cheers, JM :)
