    Had lots of basses but settled on a bitsa jazz and a CIJ '62 fretless. The CIJ quality as far as I'm concerned is at least as good as the USA stuff

    Bump for a super cool bass, following on from the dating thing I've just been fettling a friends jazz today, the neck plate dates it as a 1973 and it has all the same features as yours, 4 bolt neck, no skunk stripe, trussrod adjustment at heel, rosewood board with blocks and binding, 4 inch pickup spacing etc. It's a cracking bass , so is yours but unfortunately as usual shame I don't have the readies to spare!!

    Well if you did want a better one the Gotoh 203 B can be found online for £25 posted, just wack it into goggle. I've got them on both my jazzes now.

    I've recently had some lessons with Pete, very good player and teacher so recommended. I think he'll also be a bit nearer and easier to get to from Halifax. I used to drive from Huddersfield and it took me about 50 mins, so for you an educated guess would be 30 mins tops

    Have a bump on me, great photos by the way

    Yeah, watch Leathal Weapon for tips

    Yup, another CIJ Fender Jazz. You can buy a Japanese '75 Re Issue Jazz and pop in a preamp of some description. I always try and buy second hand and have had 2 CIJ jazzes, a USA Jazz and a bitsa. The CIJ ones IMHO were manufactured to a higher standard than the USA one and I've seen new MIM ones with neck pocked gaps in that are unacceptable! If I could I'd always go for CIJ or MIJ ones, great bang for your buck

    I've managed to an extent to steam out a small gouge, always try it (soldering iron ontop of a damp cloth, hold on for 15 secs then have a peek, repeat as required). Only thing I found is that the colour of the steamed area was left a bit lighter. However I do understand about the uncompressing compressed wood bit!

  24. jimbobothy
    Very nice, have a bump on me
  25. jimbobothy
    If only they were chrome! These tuners are much nicer than the Fender Vintage ones and are worth the money, 3 out of 4 of my jazzes have these on them so have a bump on me.
