Sadly moving on my last bass. If you don't know what this is, it is a great lightweight alternative to other Fender basses. PJ setup with a very fast, slim, jazz style neck. The neck has a silk finish and there is a high gloss finish to the sunburst to body, the darkest colour is a rich chocolate brown. Weighing in at approx 3Kg (bathroom scales) this will give your back a rest! These were made in Japan and are high quality instruments, I believe this example is 1994-5. All the controls all work, master volume / pan / bass / treble, with the preamp using a standard 9v battery. Strap locks are fitted though the original strap buttons are included. This bass has had very little (home) use and has been in its case for the past 6 years as I have not be playing due to hearing issues. In very good overall condition, there are one or two small dings on the front (see pics) but it is unmarked apart from those. The rear cover still has the protective film over the plastic plate and the original 'Steve's Music Store' (Canada) price sticker is still on the back of the headstock. Crossrock hard case is included. The bass is located just outside Weston-super-Mare and I am asking only for £550.00 for a quick sale. Thanks for looking.

Probably the nicest looking piece of wood I have ever owned. It was created fretless and I had Martin (original builder) re-fret it. In very good condition, I could not find any dings. The only thing that is not quite right is that one of the LEDs at the 12th does not light up unless the batteries are pretty much brand new, I guess a resistance issue. Big sound, thin neck, low action, beautifully made. I have a specially adapted Hiscox guitar case into which it fits as it is small, and also nice and light. Based Chertsey, Junc11 of M25. Would rather not post... PS Might swap for a Roscoe Century 5 PPS Weight is 3.53kg with a chunky strap attached. Images of string widths added.

As 1 cab is on hold I thought I would list the WJBP1 preamp/DI separately. In excellent condition with original packaging and foot pedal and can be supplied in small flight case at no cost. Notes from Wayne Jones: My perfect sound was an Avalon 737 studio pre through my WJ powered cabs. So I set out to design a bass pre-amp that truly reproduced your bass sound & thus enabled you to tailor your sound. Also the tone controls had to work in the right areas & the pre had to have all the bells & whistles we need to do our job. Again no expense spared, just the highest quality components I could get for everything we need on stage & in the studio. These were my Instructions to my Engineer. I have achieved that with the WJBP This pre will also make front of house engineers happy as what goes in comes out. The WJBP is designed with a no compromise attitude in Cost, Quality, Components & Features just as are WJ High End High Powered Bass Cabinets. Features Input 1/4” phono stereo/mono jack Input Gain For both Passive & Active basses -10 Db pad Input Gain clip Indicator LEDS (top left corner) Tone controls are critically set by Wayne & are extremely accurate in the attack points of each string. You can set them by one for each string on your bass All +15Db -20 Db Incredible separation between the tone controls There is also a 30 Hz boost for those that may like it ( not really needed at all as the Bass control gives such a great bottom end with ultimate attack). In/out button for selection Compressor: Optical, automatically senses & is very effective even with a very small amount engaged. In/out button for selection Balance: This is a balance control for stereo operation e.g. 2 WJ 2x10 or Stereo WJ 1x10 Powered cabs. Master volume Controls output Pre-Amp Output Indicator LEDS (top right corner) tell you if you are overloading the WJBP output Mute - Puts the WJBP in standby mode. LED Indicates when in use. The Mute mode should also be used for power up of the WJ Powered cabs, otherwise a very loud 1000watts will sound when WJ Powered cab (or separate power amp) is turned on. It also operates the built in Tuner. For standard tuning for 4, 5 & 6 string basses Foot switch mutes all output for silent tuning. Master Outs 2 balanced XLR (recommended) outs for connection to WJ powered cabinets or to separate power amps Balance control on from panel will affect these outputs. Also a choice of 2 Unbalanced 1/4" outputs for same function. (not recommended as output is lower) All master outs can be used together as a pair or Individually with balance control set to the respective output FX Send & Return - Stereo or mono Foot switch - Mutes all output DI Output - Balanced XLR out with Level control & ore or post EQ button Aux Input - Stereo input, both 6.3mm & 1/4” phono. You an use this to plug items such as iPad, iPhone backing tracks etc. to play along with. Headphone With Volume Control - Plug in your headphones to practise with. You can use the WJBP by itself without plugging into a power amp.

@Alfik maybe he is busy? He’s been on this forum a long time, I doubt that he is ignoring you. I suggest you be patient a little longer

Hi guys. Here it is, my 74 fender jazz. Incredible sounding bass and the easiest bass I've ever played. Let's start with the neck. As most of your are aware, 74 was the first year they did the maple/pearl block inlays. And I think the last year before going to 3 bolt necks. What makes this one so damn good as that it was made by herb gastelum the neck guru of fender for 52 years! The neck is stamped herb g. It has had a brass nut installed at some point in its career. The body is sunburst as you can see with the usual dings you'd expect from a 52 year old bass. Stamped H Ferry who was another well known fender employee. It has had a modification back in the day, someone cut out for a bigger pickup to the neck position. This sits behind the pick guard and has not changed tone in anyway. The bridge has been upgraded to a baddass 2. This looks like a very old modification and seems quite common with older fenders. The pickups have been changed, I would say sadly, but these sound unbelievable so although not original it is the sweetest fender I've ever heard, maybe sweetest bass ever heard! They are hand wound pickups made by Ben lindsay in the USA. From what I read he is considered one of the best winders? Completely silent, but sound amazing. Scratchplate doesn't seem to be original as I think they were black. But has some age to it. This has been a tough one to price as I think an all original 74 would be worth 3.5k or so. Ive put it up for what I feel is fair.

The day has finally come to pass this on as I'm ready for a change. Made in the Custom Shop at Dingwall is this beautiful bass that's around 5 years old. In exceptional condition, no dings and only the finest of marks on the back which can only be seen by holding up to the light (I don't wear an exposed belt when playing). They may well polish out. Currently strung with D'Addario coated strings but have to say that I liked it better with flats. Tone fusion electronics, Wenge fretboard and tortoiseshell pick guard. Weighs in at a shade over 7lbs. Collection from here in Belper (15 minutes from J28 of the M1. Negotiable on meet-up.
