ozzy138 Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 (edited) Bought for a project that has sadly had to be cancelled...... It came from Bass Direct and it's only use has been a test fit on a old jazz bass of mine..... Only thing of note is a slight threading on one of the screws, other than that its in perfect nick.......

tom1946 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Please PM in future instead of cluttering the place up with 6 month old threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonnyboy Rotten Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Well you don't have to look at this thread. I was just asking if was still available as it is not down as sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grangur Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Not an unreasonable question either, IMHO. But I'd PM him with a link to the thread. Ozzy138 has probably forgotten this is still (apparently) live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreeneKing Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Yep, Tom1946 was just a bit rude , even if he had a point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonnyboy Rotten Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Fair enough - but my point was how do we know it is 6 months old? That was just when the last post was. It may still be as current as todays newspaper?! Point taken though. I will PM... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom1946 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I do look at a lot of stuff on here and I thought I'd have a look with a view to buy. It's not until you get to the end of the thread that you realise how old it is so I just thought that it was better to PM.

Steff Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 In fact posting here instead of sending a pm might be helpful for other users who haven't seen this ad... It's the seller's responsibility to mark the item as sold when it's gone, this one hasn't so might be still for sale... I do perform a search when I need something particular but very often I spot wanted ads where someone's looking for something I happened to have pm'd the seller from a few months old thread and it turns out still available, but because it wasn't in the first 3-4 pages people missed it, so... I think nothing wrong with reviving an old thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Horses for courses I guess Peter. I prefer something more high mass to "full contact" myself. These bridges are decidedly low mass. I have a Babicz on my fretless P (it replaced a bbot). On paper it sounds awesome but in practice I found that it actually muted what was there originally. It's still on there like so it's obviously it's not pig awful, just not the miracle it's maker claims it to be. Looks very funky though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreeneKing Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Tonally I'm not a total convert on ANY bridge/fretboard/body/neck compared to pickups and circuits. Call me cynical (who me?). I like the function of these bridges and don't remember them being ultra light. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozzy138 Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 It's all my fault.......this has been sold I was moving house at the time the ad went in and I think keeping an eye on bass chat had slipped down the list of importance...! The whole BABCIZ thing was weird for me.... I got it for a jazz bass and it just did sit well, I'd say it definitely effected the tone. I put on my P bass and it sounded great but it just didn't look right at all. Anyway.... Apologies all round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
