Pow_22 Posted June 3, 2014 Posted June 3, 2014 (edited) [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"]Squier Vintage Modified Precision bass TB.[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"] [/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"]This is basically the Squier version of the ā72 telebass with the big walloping Seth Lover humbucker right by the neck (Fender branded BTW).[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"] [/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"]These come in sunburst with black scratchplate but I got our very own Bass Doc to knock me up a 3ply white plate to make the bass look more authentic. I also added period correct telebass/ā51 style bridge cover, tug bar (in correct āunder G string position) and Fender flatwound (9050CLās) strings before giving it a basic set-up.[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"] [/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"]No marks, dings, knocks etc at all and plays like a dream. The satin neck is nice and quick and there arenāt any buzzes or choked notes. The output is huge and I sometimes plug into the Active input on my SVT to tame it a little. Ive not lowered the pup fully so guess that could be done too.[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"] [/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"]I will supply the original black scratchplate as well as the white one. I dont have a hardcase (I can probably dig a gig bag out from somewhere).[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"] [/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"]I had one of these with the exact same mods a few years back and sold it on here. Regretted it, bought another, recreated the same lookā¦.then fell head over heals for a black Jack Casady Epi bass hence the sale.[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"] [/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"]Id really like collection in view of no hardcase but I can package up the bass safely and offer couriered delivery for Ā£20. If you are localish I can deliver myself.[/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"] [/color][/font][/size] [size=4][font="Times New Roman"][color="#000000"]Im after Ā£175 + Postage. Work blocks hosting sites so I can email any interested BCers. This bass really is immaculate.[/color][/font][/size] Edited August 26, 2014 by Pow_22

andydye Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 how have I not seen this before now sorely tempted!! any chance of you passing Sheffield any time soon?
karlfer Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Best be quick fella's, if I get a reply from Mr. Shuker re a neck build, this may well become my donor body if it's still here (no smartarse comments about me NEEDING a donor body thank you ).

[/quote] I really want to try a tele bass to see how the sound and feel compares to my USA p (what I [i]really [/i]want is a '77 tele bass but I lack the beans to obtain such a thing), if you buy it can you swing by Sheffield for a brew on your way back to Wigan so I can meet it?
Pestie Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Is this medium scale please? What is the approximate weight? Thanks Mike(Pestie)

[/quote] May one suggest you have a touch of google maps looking at the relative positions of Wigan (where I live) Manchester (where the bass lives) and Sheffield (where you live) Mr Shuker has still not replied to my email of yesterday morning so currently I can not go forward anyway. Yet.

Feel free to pop over with it if you come see Jon though
karlfer Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 So, a well know custom luthier hasn't replied to my email in the two time slots he allows per week, so guess I'm going to have to give this a miss as a donor body. GLWTS
