  1. Just been looking at [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/F-Bass-BN5-Natural-5-String-Active-Bass-Guitar-/250656646885?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item3a5c4ce6e5"]THIS[/url] bass and was wondering how the routing is done for the control plate cavity. How do they avoid damaging the wood they use for it as it's looks to be from the same bit of wood as the body, impressive lutherie!
  2. It was the 1/2" version, kindly been told what part to measure ! Anyhow it's now on hold!
  3. Just realised it's in the wrong section, sorry. Please could someone with the power to move it do so please, apologies again, Jim.
  4. Hi all, Bought this with mind of going back to 4 strings, however I seem to have found myself with a very nice Sandberg JJ5, hence me not needing this device! I would like £27.50 posted or £25 collected for it, it is in virtually brand new condition. Please check that it would fit your fender, it should fit J and P 4 strings from 2008 onwards (click [url="http://store.hipshotproducts.com/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=308"]HERE[/url] for more info). Any queries just PM me. Jim. Pics below; [attachment=65453:drop_d_tuner_010.JPG][attachment=65454:drop_d_tuner_011.JPG][attachment=65455:drop _d_tuner_018.JPG]

    Yeah, I agree that it's a more sought after wenge neck. You can tell by the colour of the grain, especially on the back of the headstock. Not sure when Warwick changed to using Ovankol for the neck wood but around '98 or just after. You shouldn't have any balance problems aswell due to that killer top horn!!
  6. I've just got the bass I was after but I'm still on here looking. Since I joined I've been through at least 8 basses to get to this one, hopefully I'll just get a fretless version (Sandberg JJ5 aged somewhat!) at somepoint to accompany it then stop looking, therefore buying! It's just GAS is so compulsive it's hard to stop!!
  7. I've bought off Ash before and had no problems at all, nice guy to deal with. I actually bought a black version of this bass and another time a 5 string groove bass! I can vouch for the necks being very nice, I have not so far in my experience played a neck as nice as the flat 'D' profile Status basses. I highly recommend them.
  8. Just bought a Sandberg JJ5 off Chris, nice chap to deal with. Unfortunatley the logistics of the deal meant it was best if I sorted out a courier rather than collect the bass personally but Chris was very good regarding communication and facilitating the collection for the courier, it was also packaged well so no worries there. The bass was as described and plays very nicely, Ta very much!!
  9. Just sold my Fender P5 to Gavin, very trusting and trustworthy, great comms and had a nice chat on the old blower aswell, would deal with him again without any worries, recommended basschatter!
  10. If it hasn't gone already I'll take it thanks!
  11. Pm'd again.
  12. Yup, I can confirm that this bass is very good and easy to play. The build quality is very very good and better than a lot of basses I've owned. Shame I'm going back to 4 strings hey!
  13. Very nice, have a bump on me!
  14. I agree, close thread and start afresh. You live and learn! Hope you do sell it thought as on paper it looks good.

  17. Hi all, I'm selling my Fender USA Precision 5 string bass I bought off this forum a couple of months back ([url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=99461&hl="]HERE[/url]). The bass is in very good condition and either a 2008 or 2009 model. Nothing much to say about it as it's pretty much as new apart from a mark on the tort gaurd near the truss rod access hole and a few swirl marks (very slight and see in the light only ones) on the back! It would come with a Fender hard case with some of the bits and bobs that came with it when new. I'm asking £650 [b]firm[/b] collected, I'd rather not post. I'm based in Huddersfield so if you want to try you're welcome to come over! NB: I will be in the Cambridge area from Thursday 28th - Friday 29th and in Reigate, Surrey from Saturday 30th - Sunday 31st if that helps anybody for a collection. Any doubts please check my feeback, [attachment=61772:FP51.JPG] [attachment=61774:FP53.JPG] [attachment=61773:FP52.JPG] [attachment=61775:FP54.JPG] [attachment=61776:FP55.JPG] [attachment=61777:FP56.JPG] [attachment=61778:FP57.JPG] [attachment=61779:FP58.JPG] [attachment=61780:FP59.JPG] [attachment=61781:FP510.JPG]
