Did Fender ever use Alpha pots in the MIM basses? I just received a loaded control plate from one of the eBay "pull off" parts dealers (not Stratosphere) and it was certainly not the one pictured. They actually stated in the listing that it was from an MIM Player PJ Mustang bass. A new listing...

I've owned basses worth...maybe 5 times as much; but I really loved this one. But I went through a phase, and was with a band, where only 5 strings seemed adequate. I put this "mutt" of a parts bass up to finance a G&L L2500 (great bass, but gone, without tears). If I could buy this back, "as...

Just for giggles! If you're thinking what you're thinking...DON'T YOU DARE!!! My current main stable:

I've been an active participant here since 2009. I'm a mediocre working bassist, playing cover lines correctly, with esprit, but not moving bass art forward. I'm a parts builder; nothing new and unique, but built to fit my needs. Never, ever sold a parts bass for a profit. The point being...

Not sure who's doorstep this should land on. I recently put together a JMJ/Vintera Mustang build. The only way I could find JMJ pickups was from Stratosphere, in a loaded pickguard assembly. Too expensive, but I kinda dig the nicotine white pearl PG. I assembled the bass a couple months ago...

I don't know what would be involved, but I frequently find myself searching for a particular post or particular member's comment I somewhat remembered from this club or that club. So maybe add "thread title" to the search criteria. I realize there is a "search titles only" criteria, and I have...

For Sale - 2021 Squier Bronco Bass Loaded Body - Excellent! Up for sale is an excellent condition 2021 Squier Bronco Bass Body, fully loaded, pure factory. I bought this new, as a complete bass, then decided to use the neck with a hot-rod project. This body has barely been used at all, mostly...

While considered by many to be an entry level/student instrument, I thought I'd give the Squier Bronco Bass a go as a mod platform while recovering from back surgery a year or so back, due to its very light weight. That project produced a decent, playable, fun little bass; not a pro instrument...

FOR SALE - 2020 SQUIER BRONCO BASS NECK Long story short; I bought a 2020 Bronco used, for the body. This is the neck. It’s in very good shape; straight, good truss rod, frets are near new. There is a bit of a “ding/rough spot” on the lower edge of the fretboard centered on the 7th position...

New/Unused! NORDSTRAND NJ4SE (BRIDGE) Hum- Cancelling Jazz Bass Pickup - 4 string Purchased for a project that never came together. This has never been unboxed, but the box shows a bit of wear from being in my sock drawer (literally!) for a year or so. I’ve used these (in 5 strings) before, so...

New/Unused! BOSS TU-3S Chromatic Tuner Never Unboxed!! STOCK PHOTO: I was putting together a pedal board for guitar and bought this to add to it. I love these little tuners and have a couple. But the guitar idea faded (Chording is much tougher on my arthritis) and I missed the return window...

New/Unused! BOSS RC-1 Loop Station Pedal Never Unboxed!! STOCK PHOTO: I put this on a Christmas list a few years back (Amazon “my list”) and never gave it another thought. It’s really not the kind of thing I mess with, but I guess I thought I might. Well, to my surprise, my wife gave it to me...

SOLD!! 2021 Fender JMJ Justin Meldal-Johnsen Mustang Bass Neck w/Tuners Hi! I bought this great JMJ Bass neck from Stratosphere in July of 2021. For anyone who may not know, Stratosphere disassembles and sells new Fender guitars for parts. It has been used very little since and has never left...

EDIT: I'm rethinking selling this. I may put it back up, or I may sell something else. Thanks for your interest! Jon Finances dictate I need to sell some stuff. I’m opting for the “Last In, First Out” model, as I can’t stand to part with my old “partners”. Up for sale is a Parts Bass: A...

I bought this to use on a Squier Mustang Bass Project that took a different direction. I bought it from Stratosphere, so it was pulled off a new bass, and I have never used it. Excellent, except for a very small finish blemish on the front edge that wouldn't really photograph. $35 shipped USA...

EDIT: Pulled off market for a while, because I thought I might use the neck on a Mustang project. Ended up going fancy schmancy on the Stang! :rollno: So this little beauty is back on the market! Jon:6/11/23 2020/2021 Squier Bronco Bass I had back surgery in 2021. I was basically recliner...

Got the idea from @TTPbass1, in the Mustang thread. .Fender Mustang Club

Well, it worked for Stratosphere :hyper:

Seymour Duncan SJB-1n "Vintage" Jazz Pickup - Neck Position Excellent condition. Comes with a “No Name” cover. I don’t remember the origin of the cover. May or may not be SD. I don’t like lettered covers and usually order without, but I don’t remember for sure. $40 shipped; PAYPAL...

Just a reminder to my fellow DIYers: Soldering irons are HOT!! :D :bassist:

G&L guys. What's this? (Not about to jump. I've owned, and own, some nice G&Ls. Just curious!) Obviously MIJ. Are these legit? [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

Hi! I have a 5 string set of Fender American Professional (ii) Tuning Machines. To the best of my knowledge they will fit post 2008 American Standard, American Professional, and the new American Professional ii Precision and Jazz Basses, but can't guarantee that info. These are the new...

Used SJB-1N Neck Pickup for Fender Jazz Bass. According to Seymour, "Vintage correct Jazz Bass single coil pickup made to look and sound like the originals." Yep. Shows some use, but still 100% functional!! $45 shipped in the USA only. PAYPAL please. Thanks for looking. Jon

NEVER USED!! Genuine Fender American Professional II Jazz Bass V 5 String Loaded Pickguard complete with Pickups (V-Mod II Single Coils), Pots, Output Jack, Control Plate, and Control Knobs (complete set)- All original w/ screws- Genuine Fender! I'm bailing on a Jazz V project, due to very...

This is an American Professional (one) Jazz Bass V body in Natural Ash. I bought it from Stratosphere with the obvious intention of building a Jazz V, but due to back surgery I’m moving to smaller basses. If you're not familiar, Stratosphere disassembles new Fender guitars and basses and sells...

I'm bailing out on a Jazz Bass project. I've been collecting parts for a while, and basically, just lost the spark! Unused, still in the sealed plastic pack. I opened the box, but resisted the urge to break the seal. Top pic is (obviously) a stock photo from the website, for informational...

I just had spinal (lumbar) surgery. My doc told me not to lift anything over 8.5 lbs. for a month and be really careful, building up for a couple months after that. There aren't many things more unwieldy than lifting a bottom heavy bass into position from the stand, while sitting in a chair...

Steinberger Spirit XT-25 5-String Hi! I bought this from Musicians Friend just over two years ago, which should make it a 2018-2019 model. Newly retired, I thought it would make a good travel bass. But the travelling hasn’t been happening! To be completely honest, I haven’t real bonded with...

This is a new 2020 Fender American Professional Precision Bass Neck. Rosewood fretboard. It has never been used. My project is not going to happen, and I need the money for another “shiny thing” that’s caught my eye. Price is $450 PAYPAL, shipped CONUS. From the site: “Crafted in the same...

Inspired by this thread/poll: So do you ever intentionally try to look bored - even if you aren’t? Is "Tort" the new "Carrots"? I'm afraid this might be a significant change in the culture of Talkbass. I'm really concerned that this might be a "changing of the guard". Am I being overly...

Okay. I admit it. This was one of those late, late night impulse buys. You know. Yep. I kept thinking I’d put it on one of my basses and learn to play fretless. Yep. Maybe next week. So I finally decided I’d return it, but I missed MF’s 45 day return by 6 days. My bad habits are your gains, so...

Hi! I have this set of Nordstrand NP5F Precision Bass pickups for the Fender American Standard V and American Professional V P bass. Pre-owned, but unused! I bought them for a project and just never ended up using them. They’ve been sitting in the box, in my sock drawer, for a couple years. I...

Well, I caught some interest, while not exactly listed, but no commitments. So I've decided to relist this sweetie, albeit reluctantly. It was photographed with D'Addario Chromes, but now has GHS Pressurewounds. 45 minutes play time on them! :D SO: Hi! I’m listing my all Fender, all...

Relisted 05/10/2020: Well, I had decided to keep this, but as before, I have a lot of basses, and this isn't being played. So, back to the top and available!! I’m listing my all Fender, Precision parts bass. This is an MIM Precision body, with an MIM Precision neck. Parts list: Pre 2008...

Fender Super 55 Split Coil Jazz Bass Neck Pickup WOW! A couple of you are going to mad at me to see this relisted! I listed it in Feb 2019, then we moved shortly after that. I couldn't find this pickup after the move! My wife finally unpacked a box of her never worn (outgrown! :ninja:)...
