tanuki Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 (edited) These basses are now for sale, financial woe meens i can no longer hang about so im offering these here on their way to evilbay.. 1 - Reverend Rumblefish PJ -750 ono This is a great bass, they are becoming increasingly sought after these days and rare on these shores.. This is a black early model that has been changed to a P/J By the addition of a G&L SB precision pickup, i also added a series/ parrallel pull / push pot on the volume to get the great fat sound that the XL series became known for, it comes with a spare pickguard and the original removed Jazz pickup so you can change it back into a J/J configuration.. 2 - Fender Darkstar Franken P -750 A black fender p body (60;s refin) with a 1972 jazz neck (the rare maple / black blocks and binding version) the neck has been defretted and refretted. The pickup is a darkstar, a great sounding pickup with amazing dynamic range, search threads on here or talkbass for details.. The Bass is currently fitted with a Hipshot/Graphtec Ghost Bridge and the midi hexpander so its fully wired for GK midi but i will likely remove these and sell separately... Everyone who plays this bass loves the slim and comfortable neck, not only does the darkstar sound great but the midi stuff drives a Vbass system like no other, you can also buy a curcuit that makes use of the pzetso bridge.. the photo above show the bass with midi stuff fitted, without it looks more like this,, 3 - Fender 1975 precision neck, rosewood 350 Great condition, a nice slab of rosewood, really great to play, tuners not included. 4 - Fender 1977 precison body, fully loaded 250 A stripped fender body with some routing that is covered by a pickguard, loaded with a wizard thumper precision pickup and a wizard '84 jazz pickup, anodised gold pickguard.. Get in touch if you have any interest in these, Edited July 8, 2009 by tanuki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Foxen Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 That the Franken P that was up in Tom Waghorns? Want, shame I've tied up my funds. Someone buy Joe Garcia's Sabre, so at least I get to touch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to come over to have a play, think you're only round the corner aren't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joegarcia Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Just to clarify, is the body of the Franken P a 60's body or a RI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanuki Posted July 3, 2009 Author Share Posted July 3, 2009 its difficult to prove obviously but it is an original 60's body that has been refinished black, this franken p was put together in the netherlands in about 1975, i got it from the original owner and added the darkstar, replaced the electronics (it came with some kind of "q-filter" electronics that are popular with country guitarists to thin out the sound, obviously it had no right being on a bass!) As to the sabre, im not sure, ive had a few musicmans over the years but ended my love afair after a pretty dissapointing sounding sterling!

joegarcia Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Cool, sounds interesting. Well I've had some interest but it's still here so just drop me a line if you fancy a play on it. I don;t think it's very comparable with modern Ernie Ball basses really. Totally different feel and sound. The neck is particularly gorgeous on this one in my opinion.
