Hi team,
A friend is trying to piece together some random parts.
He has two Ampeg SVT's from 1972.
One has transformers that date to the 5th week of 72 and the other to the 35th week.
As you can see from the pics below the faceplates are different.
I believe the darker blue with -/0/+ and mid...
Over the last year or so I have been buying and selling a lot of basses and parts. Honestly, it's got to the point that I am tired of buying and selling all the time chasing either feel or tone.
I decided that instead of having a constant GAS attack chasing and attempting to build what I have...
Hello,
I really really hate doing this, I love this bass but due to outragous local refret costs ($600-700), I feel better to just let this bass go.
Here I have a stunning example of a 1972 Fender Precision Bass in 3-Color-Sunburst. The bass came to me with an aftermarket pickguard, but I...

*EDIT: I have an interested local-ish buyer for the cab only, so I’ve lowered the price to reflect the head only. Until the cab is officially sold though, I’m still asking $1400 for the stack local pickup. I’ll update if the cab goes.
Up for sale is the legendary Fender Bassman 100. This was...

Hello,
I’ve GAS’d for a lot of basses in my time playing, as I’m sure you have. I’ve gas’d for and owned Precisions, Jazzes, Stingrays, and so on. The one bass I’ve always wanted is a 1969-1973 Fender Precision, sunburst, rosewood board, and tort. Played on a lot of my favorite records, Budgie...
1972 Fender Jazz Bass :bassist:
"Aston Family Man Barrett" the bass
What can I say? This bass is awesome.
Thumps like Fams (Aston Barrett).
Bright like Geddy.
Gnarly like Tim Commerford.
It's everything you'd want and expect in an early 70s jazz bass.
Some bumps and bruises, but in excellent...

Hello,
I have fallen victim to the all consuming illness that is GAS. I saw this 1972 P bass on Reverb. Everything besides the body, neck, and tuners have been replaced. I made an offer and got it for a great price, so that really doesn’t bother me. It was refin’d by MJT. I plan on restoring...
Hi all,
First time poster (though long time lurker).
So, long story short: last week I picked up what I was told was, for want of a better word, the remains of a 72 p bass. At the time I had no idea what was more or less likely to be genuine - all in parts, horribly broken neck, heavily...
Trying to find out info. How many were actually made? I know the speaker holds value, is there any value in the amp itself. I am more of a distortion guy and this is a little too clean for my blood. Picked it up at a flea market, any and all information would be greatly appreciated.
