    Used black 3 ply scratch plate in good used condition. Taken off a USA Precision, probably not a Fender original but a great fit and quality. Price includes UK postage.

    A set of used Rotosound (so I was told) flats taken off a Precision bass. Quite a high tension which I like but a bit too dull for me. A great opportunity to try out flat wounds without spending the big bucks. Price includes UK postage.

    I've used UPS for a couple of years now without any issue. I've only had two occasions when the (UK) delivery wasn't on the following day but to be fair they have been excellent.

    I have a set of Rotosound fitted to a Precision bass and they do seem pretty dull and muted to me across all 4 strings but all balanced. They're ok but I preferred the Labellas I had on a Pbass I once owned. On my other Precision I've recently fitted a set of Detroit flats. Like the OP the A,D and G are fine, quite nice sounding in fact but the E is nowhere. I've tried re stringing a couple of times but its makes no difference. I'm wondering if it doesn't like thru body stringing? The bridge on my US '95 P is thru body only BTW. So, I replaced the offending E with a Dunlop where the difference is night and day. It blends nicely with the Elites and when the A,D&G newness wares off I think it'll be spot on and what I want to hear from my bass.

    Lozz sold me a set of Precision pickups. A first class Basschatter who was happy to hold them for me until payday. Great comms and speedy postage - Perfect. Cheers 😎

    I have a '95 US Precision Bass that I'd like to upgrade pup wise, a set of Labellas and use as my 'Motown bass'. So my question is, what's the difference between the two pickups and what set to go for?

    What was the weights like of the two? I think I'd be hard pushed to pick between them as the SB-1 also looks very tempting. Sadly there's no shops around here that stock them so trying them out is near impossible. My Fullerton JB was excellent, first class build quality and finish but just too damn heavy unfortunately.

    Not a great fan of 'Road Worn' but I do like that one.

    Nice one Matt. looking forward to your review.

    Thanks mate. And where was it from?

    As much as I love the look of the bass, the type of wood is a bit of an unknown to me. I have now seen some cheaper basses with pine body woods but not anything yet of £1k plus basses. It really dose put me off buying one if I'm honest. Also @neepheid is your incoming bass the LB-100 Tribute?
  19. bigthumb
    I think it looks stunning but the body wood? I'm just wondering what it would be like? I can't imagine pine being too heavy, its a pity they don't give a weight to it.

    They have a stunning (well I think so) US Fullerton Deluxe at Guitarguitar and the body is made from Western Sugar Pine? Not exactly sure what that would be like. https://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/product/210309367423025--gl-usa-fullerton-deluxe-lb-100-pine-shoreline-gold-maple-finger?gclid=CjwKCAiAn5uOBhADEiwA_pZwcLNW4YRmc9AuQZyhBgW3FHf6EtRUAr2ydawxQzHlJpJsDjz6YjR6yBoCTL4QAvD_BwE

    Recently acquired in a trade is this rather fancy Ibanez SR1400 in Mojito Lime Green. Moving on as I really do need to knock a lump off the credit card so not interested in trades, sorry to say. No expert on these by any means as I'm more of a passive Pbass guy but it's obviously very modern sounding with a comprehensive EQ and quality pickups and hardware. Very good condition with only two small chips on the headstock. Lightweight weighing in at 7Lbs 8 Oz (3.4 Kg) I've pinched the photos from the previous owner but will take more if required. Bass comes with a padded gig bag. £500 Collected (firm). Can meet/deliver for fuel cost (distance pending) or shipping (uk only) via UPS £30 Specifications here: Neck type Atlas-4 5pc Wenge/Bubinga neck w/KTS TITANIUM rods BodyFigured Maple top/Mahogany body FretboardRosewood fretboard w/Avalone Oval dot inlay FretMedium frets w/Premium fret edge treatment BridgeMono-rail V bridge NutGraph Tech BLACK TUSQ XL nut Neck pickup Nordstrand™ "Big Single" neck pickup Bridge pickup Nordstrand™ "Big Single" bridge pickup EqualiserIbanez Custom Electronics 3-band eqw/Eq bypass switch & 3-way Mid frequency switch

    I loved it there back in the day, it was like being on line with a bunch of your mates. Met many of the guys in person too at various bashes, gear dealings or even a night on the pop. Happy memories 🥲
