My recent acquisition from bass direct in the uk. A steal of a price compared to some listings. Maybe because it’s been modified it lowered the price? But it needed a little action tweak for my preference. Now it’s awesome. Can’t wait to jam on Thursday with it!!

It arrived safe and sound today!! I’ve just tweaked the set up a bit for my personal taste and that’s it. Plays amazingly. I’ve got a little bench amp I use when I’m doing set ups. This thing just blew that up it was very old anyway, but i built it into my bench so I’m going to have to sort that...

Thank you bass direct It’s the second bass I’ve bought from them. I had a early 2000 MIJ jazz too. Fantastic service.

Did you change the pickups on it? I’m seeing Rancid in June. Might take the bass with me. See if I can get the man himself to sign it!

Might get some Rotosound 50-110s on it. They sounded great on my 2001 affinity I just sold.

Just bagged a bucket list bass! A Squier 2010 Matt Freeman. I’d say ideally I’d have found the white one but they don’t come up for sale everyday! It’s been modified which I didn’t realise at first but it’s tastefully done. Dimarzio p bass pickups. Brass saddles. Black knobs and neck plate...

I’m not fussed which way. As long as it works! I’ve put the project off until I find an answer or diagram.

Hi all. I’ve managed to wire a jazz bass to one volume pot in the past. I’ve got a project which needs wiring from scratch. I’m not the biggest fan of this but it suits the project. Can any of you genius’s tell me what the f I need to do I’ve got a white wire and black wire from each pup. I’ve...

I’m really interested in this thread. I had a hoppus bass with similar cracks. Nothing in the wood it was just in the finish. I’m interested in this bass (MIM Mike Dirnt) I’ve seen a few for sale. Two of them at the moment both have the same cracks. Can’t be a coincidence. It must be the way...

My custom job on an Aria I got from Facebook for £20 (I think it was £20) Decided to reshape the head. It’s my go to bass at the moment. Thinking of upgrades to the pickups. Emg or basslines. Pink basses are my all time favourite thanks to Mark Hoppus/emo scene 2004.

I always wanted one of these!!

my custom made J bass with 51 style headstock does the trick!!

I had a similar one recently. Replied to an add looking for a bassist. I sent over a (what I thought) was a comprehensive resume. Light hearted too not to go in all serious etc. but I got nothing back at all…for about 2 months then got an email saying thanks but we’ve appointed someone. Then...

This is fantastic!

The Hofner definitely is for me. It’s not about me complaining about it. I love the sound I’m getting from it. I love the neck. I love the weight. No real sustain from it may be my only gripe but it’s negligible really. it’s spot on with or without pedals. But especially with my Proco rat2. I...
