Bump. I did a few quick clips of the bass due to some interest: [url="http://soundcloud.com/josh-duddridge/both"]http://soundcloud.com/josh-duddridge/both[/url] [url="http://soundcloud.com/josh-duddridge/bridge"]http://soundcloud.com/josh-duddridge/bridge[/url] [url="http://soundcloud.com/josh-duddridge/slap"]http://soundcloud.com/josh-duddridge/slap[/url] As said further up the page, I would be quite tempted with a Geddy Lee jazz as I'm going through quite a Rush phase and I've always fancied having one. And I'm open to Yamaha TRB's also.

Hey guys, After chasing this bass for the last 5+ years since I first owned it I'm lucky to own it again (Thanks to Barrie & Bass Gear!), especially since when I first had it it still had the original preamp and pick guard. But unfortunately, the realisation that I can't be without a Warwick has hit me...again So onto the bass... It's a 1998/99 Fender USA Deluxe jazz in a nice burgundy finish, it has a 22 fret maple neck and rosewood finger board, and the smaller body shape. The pick ups and preamp have been replaced with the Sadowsky pick ups and pre which are standard in both the Metro and NYC models. I can recall how the Fender sounded orignally and it was a nice sounding active jazz then, but the Sadowsky upgrade has really improved the sound and flexibility of the bass. It basically is a Sadowsky on the cheap [u][b]Pics:[/b][/u] [u][b][/b][/u] [u][b][/b][/u] [u][b][/b][/u] [u][b][/b][/u] [u][b][/b][/u] [u][b][/b][/u] [u][b][/b][/u] For a bass which is 10+ years old it is in generally good condition, but there are a couple of noticeable dings on the body, one on the front and one on the back, and a few little ones on the side. And there are few dings on the headstock which are in the pictures. In the flesh they really don't look that bad at all. The bass also comes with the original Fender moulded hard case. [u][b]Trade Bait:[/b][/u] As I said at the top, I'm primarily looking for a trade for a Warwick, either a Thumb 4/5 string or a Streamer Stage 1 4/5 or a Streamer LX 4/5 string, Streamer $$ 4/5 string. No Corvettes please. I can add a bit of money for the right deal too. [u][b]Price:[/b][/u] Withdrawn.. Any more info or pictures please just let me know. Thanks guys, Josh.

What bass does Robert Trujillo play in this video? a 4-string Jazz?
Josh replied to fred8816's topic in General Discussion
If I recall I thought he returned the BoD to the Pastorius family. It looks like a proper 60's jazz which has seen some action and has been fitted with EMG's. -
[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1346699790' post='1792150'] If you are allowed to take the bass into the cabin, then a gig bag will be fine. Ask the cabin crew to put it in the business class suit lockers rather than the standard overhead ones. However the ultimate decision on whether you can or not rests with the check-in/gate/cabin crew on the day and no matter what the airline may tell you in advance their decision is final. It will help if you look smart and are travelling business class or better. Ultimately it's up to you whether you are going to get a proper case and put it in the hold or take a risk with a gig bag. The question you need to ask yourself is what are you going to do if you aren't allowed to take the bass into the cabin? As for what to do at the other end. Technically you should declare it. Make sure you have the receipt accessible to prove that you only paid a "stupid price". Just bear in mind that customs have to power to confiscate undeclared goods. Again your choice. [/quote] Thanks for that. Unfortunately I'm only able to afford to lower economy so I hope that doesn't affect my luck. The bass was only $149/£90, I have the receipts still so I'll keep them safe.

Hey Guys, I've just picked up a bass for a stupid price in California, I'm wondering if taking it on board in just a gig bag will be ok and if I won't get stung with import duty when I get back in to Heathrow. I'll be flying with Virgin if that helps. Thanks, Josh.

[quote name='nottswarwick' timestamp='1344790187' post='1769163'] what are the pups and pre in this please? [/quote] The pick ups are Laklands own which I think are designed with Bartolini and the preamp is the Lakland LH3. More info can be found here: [url="http://www.lakland.com/44-02.htm"]http://www.lakland.com/44-02.htm[/url]

Fender Marcus Miller Jazz Bass Olympic White F/S F/T

[quote name='MarkusWarwick' timestamp='1344459480' post='1765027'] How does it sound in drop D or C? [/quote] I've played in D with it and it's nice and clear and the tension is nice too, for drop C it would just need a slight action adjustment and maybe a heavier gauge but I'm sure it will sound nice and growly but still crisp and defined

Hey guys, This is a bit of an urgent sale as I've just checked my accounts and I need to pay off my credit card ASAP before I head off to California at the end of the month, so unfortunately I need to sell this amazing bass which I'm already regretting :/ I think everybody knows about these great basses. They are regarded as quite the swiss-army knife of basses as they can basically replicate any tone you might, from Hi-Fi slap to a mellow dub like tone, and everything in between. I got this in a trade from WaveyDavey a few months ago and he had looked after the bass brilliantly, as such the bass is in great condition all around. And he also acquired a scratch plate for the bass which is on as you can see in the pics but it's not fixed on properly, it's purely held on with double sided tape so if you wish to remove it you simply need to pop it off. It is a 2007 model also. Pics: And Daves picture without the scratch plate: WITHDRAWN Again this is a reluctant sale and if my money situation improves quickly then I will withdraw this bass. Any other info or questions please just ask. Thanks guys, Josh.

[quote name='silddx' timestamp='1343174742' post='1746688'] The Police are saving me right now, and I came across this cover of The Bed's Too Big by Foals from a BBC session. I really like it. His voice works really well, reminds me of Terry from The Specials. Got any good ones? No Jaco please [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxaUXvz-P7g[/media] [/quote] Whilst not being too far off musically, no one can cover The Police and do them justice. The space between everything in the original is what makes it for me, and of course Stings vocals are icing on top of it all, but the vocals and keys in this take away from the intimacy of the original. And I just so happened to come across this thread after watching a good few hours of Police documentaries on youtube

I managed to pick up a CV jazz on here a while ago for £200 which had been modified with some Wizard 64's. I can safely say it's probably the best £200 I've ever spent. Perfect Jaco-like bridge tone and with both pick ups together it sounds so warm and prominent, a complete all rounder. I even preferred it over a Marcus Miller jazz I had a little while ago, both for playability and tone and as such it was rendered useless and made its way out of my stable. I would really like to get a James Johnston Jazz as they just look brilliant and with a quick cheap mod would make it sound equally as amazing.

[quote name='Truckstop' timestamp='1341497371' post='1720060'] I've been listening to nothing but LD50 for the past few days, such a good album! I just can't work out why their albums since are comparatively weak. Truckstop [/quote] They just became more commercial and as such their originality floundered a bit. There are still good songs on some of the later albums in which Ryan still shines through such as: Determined, Happy, IMN, Not Falling and few others but those are the ones that spring to mind. I haven't been keeping up with their latest stuff but it's a bit hard to listen to I find.
