tortoise.sg 10-25-2007, 02:13 AM Wow! Perfect pair you have there.
I know the fretboard makes a huge difference but can you highlight the difference between the Fralins and Nordstrands. Thanks.
SMASH 10-25-2007, 02:14 AM Just a feeler
:confused: Are the basses for sale, or not?
And what are you GASsing for? Maybe you can get it in trade.
chingas 10-25-2007, 02:20 AM :confused: Are the basses for sale, or not?
And what are you GASsing for? Maybe you can get it in trade.
From what I understand, I have to put a price-even if it's a "feeler".
But, yeah, I should've considered the option of trading.:hmm:
I'm looking for a Sadowsky 5 string. I really like the MV5 in trans white with a maple board...
chingas 10-25-2007, 02:22 AM Wow! Perfect pair you have there. The second one should be white right?
I know the fretboard makes a huge difference but can you highlight the difference between the Fralins and Nordstrands. Thanks.
The Fralins really have a vintage vibe. The Nords are simliar, but can get alittle more hi-fi if you wanted too. I think the comparsions between the two have been discussed on these boards.
phat daddy 10-25-2007, 02:36 AM The white one with the Nordys is turning me on. Too bad I'm in the process of buying the other half of my rig right now. Something about the DJ's just looks way better than any of the other Skylines. Maybe it's that sexy body style.....
Bard2dbone 10-25-2007, 02:47 AM I've been wanting a 55-02 for years and have about $950 currently waiting for one...but MAN that LP blue DJ5 is HAWT!!!
Thunks BUNCHES dude. :rollno: You're confusing my GAS. :p
chingas 10-25-2007, 02:49 AM Just paying it forward... ;)
chingas 10-25-2007, 10:00 AM Thursday bumpage.
jmain 10-25-2007, 10:10 AM Those are nice, dude!!
Man, if the white one had the rosewood board, then me and Bard would be talking about my 55-02 and you and me would be talking. That's so hawt, the maple board is tempting me. :cool:
11Bravo 10-25-2007, 10:58 AM interested.
is the string spacing 19mm?
chingas 10-25-2007, 12:31 PM interested.
is the string spacing 19mm?
From what I could gather on TB, the spacing is 19mm, just like Fenders and the Lakland JO(hence the fact that the Fralins and Nords can be used in these basses)
jmain 10-25-2007, 12:50 PM From what I could gather on TB, the spacing is 19mm, just like Fenders and the Lakland JO(hence the fact that the Fralins and Nords can be used in these basses)
Yup, it's 19mm.
(One of) These shouldn't last long! Digging the LPB/Tort combo!

chingas 10-25-2007, 06:48 PM I think I may have found THE bass. So cash is slightly ahead of trades.
Bassconbeatz 10-25-2007, 08:19 PM So, what are you thinking about getting? :)

chingas 10-25-2007, 08:23 PM There's a Sadowsky I have my eye on. I've got it real bad for this one...:p

chingas 10-26-2007, 12:23 PM Added a price for those interested in buying both.
chingas 10-26-2007, 01:46 PM Added the "ding" pic.
chingas 10-26-2007, 05:45 PM I'm open to trades(Sadowsky trade+cash), but I'm leaning towards cash...

chingas 10-28-2007, 12:22 PM The LPB DJ5 is sold pending payment.
chingas 10-28-2007, 07:21 PM The White DJ is still available...
chingas 10-29-2007, 10:12 AM bump
BuffaloBass 10-29-2007, 11:23 AM FEEL THAT!?! yakilinme ovah here! The white one AAAAAAHHHHH GAS GAS GAS!!!!!!
Uh, Valenti #008 wouldn't interest you, trade wise?? Would it!? Nordy's with an Aguilar. Guess not, as you just dumped two DJ's ( cousins imho). Good. Just cleaner her strings last night. Best axe I've ever owned.
But.... man, the whitey DJ is killin' me. Looks-wise.
chingas 10-29-2007, 11:35 AM It sounds just as good as it looks. I'm only selling it because I want this Sadowsky and I would like to be debt-free!
chingas 10-29-2007, 02:46 PM LPB DJ5 is SOLD.
chingas 10-29-2007, 08:30 PM White DJ still up...bee-uummmp.
Discharge 10-29-2007, 10:57 PM Do you have any sound clips of that white DJ5, i've got the money in hand btw and will you ship to the uk?
I've played a stock DJ4 before, how does the tone compare?
chingas 10-29-2007, 11:04 PM I don't have any sounds clips at the moment...
The Nordstrands, I feel, are a bit more aggressive comparde to the stock pickups.
I would have to see how much it would cost to ship overseas, and make an adjustment to the price(If you're serious about buying, we can try work something out).
Discharge 10-29-2007, 11:15 PM Are you able to produce sound clips, I am serious about buying this bass but I need to be re-assured since I really love the stock tone.
I'm in the market for a boutique j bass, the dj and bacchus woodline 02 hand made series are the top of my list.
chingas 10-29-2007, 11:21 PM I'll see what I can do.
Discharge 10-29-2007, 11:25 PM Do you have the old pre-amp and pups by any chance?
chingas 10-29-2007, 11:29 PM I don't have the stock pups. I do have the stock pots and control plate.
chingas 10-30-2007, 04:53 PM Bump. Again.
Discharge 10-30-2007, 07:48 PM Any luck with those sound clips?
EDIT: Oh and pm me with a price inc shipping to the uk, the more I think about this bass, the more I forget about the Bacchus ;)
Discharge 10-30-2007, 08:16 PM Oh and also, are those old pics because the pups don't look like dual coils or are they straight single coil NJ5, or possibly split coil NJ5S pups?
chingas 10-30-2007, 08:39 PM They are split coils.
Discharge 10-30-2007, 08:47 PM Ahh thought so, to fit duals would have taken routing.
Did you get my pm?
chingas 10-30-2007, 08:57 PM My bad. I somehow thought both terms were interchangable! :/
PM replied.
msquared 10-30-2007, 08:58 PM I can't believe this is still here.
chingas 10-30-2007, 09:06 PM Oh, it will be gone by the weekend. Believe it.
Discharge 10-30-2007, 10:51 PM I can't believe this is still here.
He has so much interest he won't let me buy it until others refuse, because i'm from blighty :mad:
:D:p
