Hi guys, I'm looking to sell my Fender American Standard Jazz Bass in Olympic White. It was purchased new in France (where I'm from) in February 2014 before I moved to Edinburgh a few months later. It's a great sounding and easy to play bass, and it's been my main player since 2014. As you can see from the pictures, there are a few cosmetic issues here and there, mainly on the back where there are some superficial scratches, as well as a ding on the side of the bass (don't even know how it happened!). Remember, this is a bass that has been played, in rehearsals, live and at home. Those are only cosmetic and don't affect the bass's playability, stability or sound. Please note the tortoise pickguard has been replaced by an official Fender black one, I do not have the original anymore. The original case is absent as well. American Standard basses have been discontinued, which is a shame as they are great quality instruments. This is your chance to grab one! I'm located in Edinburgh, Scotland, please get in touch if you're interested! I'm asking £600 o.n.o . Any questions, please ask! Thank you! -
I'm going to get a Warmoth bass built. Any advices?
Ian McFly replied to Ian McFly's topic in Bass Guitars
Thanks for the answers so far ! -
Hello people ! I plan on getting a Warmoth bass built, with the help of my luthier. Here are the specs I settled on: -Deluxe Jazz 5 body -Maple neck and rosewood fretboard -Hipshot ultralites tuners and Hipshot A bridge -Nordstrand NJF5 pickups. -East J-retro preamp -Ice Blue Metallic finish. But there's one element on which I'm hesitating... The body wood. Alder or Ash? All in all, the other specs are a pretty common choice, but I don't want to go wild with this bass, I'd like to keep it simple and efficient. As you might have guessed, I'd like a Jazz Bass "Plus", with a powerful yet defined sound. A bass that will sit perfect in the mix (I play pop-rock with my band, there are 2 guitars and a keyboard...) If you guys have advices regarding the body wood, or even other elements (preamp, pickups, etc), I'm opened to suggestions ! Cheers ! Y. (I also posted this on Talkbass, don't beat me haha !)

[quote name='risingson' post='1080453' date='Jan 6 2011, 10:13 PM']I'd be interested to know how many Zender signatures have been sold as of the release date a while back.[/quote] As of summer 2010, I heard something like 17 or 18, but not sure.

[quote name='bigthumb' post='1075086' date='Jan 2 2011, 11:44 AM']Its pretty foul! I wonder if anybody buys their [i]Signature[/i] basses? Most of them look dreadful and probably cost the same as a family car![/quote] I would not buy a Signature Warwick, nonetheless the SZ signature is probably one of the best 4 string I've ever played. It's so good that a friend of mine, who enjoyed it so much too, ordered a Custom Shop Stage 1 5 string based on the SZ specs. It'll be killer. I'm a huge Warwick fan (or should I say a huge Streamer fan), my 4th custom shop Streamer is on order. I only have 2 of them now, I sold my LX6 a few months ago. The Streamer I have on order is a Jazzman 5 string, with ebony fretboard (I like to keep it simple). I'm so glad I placed the order at the end of december, prices increased again this year .

If my bank account wasn't in a bad shape, I would jump on it... But I already told you so. -
I have to think about it :-) -

To be honest, it's only the color that avoids me from getting this bass... -
Would you be interested in a trade with a Sandberg JM4? (Not sure yet)

Let's discuss guys!

Guys, give me a (decent) price in private (mine being £1650) and we can deal. If you have doubts about me being new to Basschat, just go to the Warwick forum and see the profile "Ian". It's me. You can even ask about me there.

Up ! We can REALLY discuss the price.
