80's bass

    Help to find any information or personal experience with old Japanese Jazz pickups.

    Hi. I just bought these jazz pickups off another member on TB. I bought them not long after he listed them, so there was no time for any comments etc. I have no idea how they sound, if are they any good & the seller hadn't used them. I just bought them because they were something different. So...

    For sale Vintage Peavy T-40 1980, Original Electronics

    Listed here is my vintage 1980 Peavy T-40. Clearly someone did a number on it, staining the body blue, replacing the tuners with fender style clovers, and swapping the strap pins and string tree to brass. (And I swapped the fender style knobs I got it with to speed knobs with numbers, so you can...

    Need help to identify this P Bass

    Hello, need help identify the make of this bass. Previous owner removed the decal. It's quite heavy (almost 13 lbs). It looks like one of those 70's or 80's Japanese made lawsuit basses. Thank you

    I have a Yamaha BB5000 for sale. It has the classic upgrade of EMG pickups that so many people did on these basses. It's in great shape but missing the brass ring around the bridge pickup. It plays great, it sounds awesome, and it is even all over the neck. I've recorded with it a bunch over the...

    NBD... Err... New Project Day: Martin Stinger SBL-10

    A while back, my nephew gave me this 80's relic: a 1988ish Martin Stinger SBL-10. He was given the bass by a friend who found it in his basement. For those not familiar, this was a Korean-made bass (maybe a Samick-built one judging by the headstock?) that CF Martin & Co imported for a couple...

    If you thought the 80's was a big pile of suck, have you reconsidered anything?

    This one's for all the 80's haters, of which I still mostly consider myself one... I've never been a fan of the '80s, at least as far as rock goes. For me, it's the decade where a lot of music got really plastic and silly. Hair bands and new wave were all the rage when I was in high school...

    Reworking old Bass electronics

    I have a Lado bass from the 80's that was custom built for my father. He's not so interested in it so I've become it's keeper. He used it at LeStudio when he first got it during his bands recordings though the engineer had him revert back to his fender as he wasn't happy with the sound. It's a...
