    Mex jazz deluxe with East J retro 01 **SOLD**

    in Basses For Sale

    Posted

    Cheers Discreet, I've tried to price it realistically. In all honesty, the bass is up for sale for exactly what I paid for it (without the East) some 5 or 6 years ago, but I would be taking a hit on the East as I bought that new.

    If I get no takers at the full price, I'll remove the East and sell it separately.

    ***SOLD please remove***

    This is my third bass up for sale to thin down the collection.

    I bought this some time last year as a copy, and when it arrived I was quite surprised by the headstock logo, as it looks VERY original. It was originally a Natural finish, but I had it painted in a sort of "vintage white" colour.

    It is fitted with a very nice sounding Seymour Duncan pickup, and I upgraded the controls with a KiOgon kit, and in all honesty plays well with a nice feeling neck which is a satin finish. It is a passive bass.

    Everything works as it should, including truss rod.

    Would make a good standby bass, or, an excellent starter.

    Will deliver at cost.

    Any question, feel free to ask.

    Thanks for that, and you're right, it does sound the dogs......especially with new strings on.

    I've threatened to sell this on a few occasions, but always ended up changing my mind when I picked it up to photograph it and had a little noodle on it. But this time, I'm making a real concerted effort to resist changing my mind!

    Up for grabs is my trusty Mex Fender Jazz Deluxe fitted with an East Retro 01 pre.

    I've always liked this bass, but find I rarely play it nowadays, and in all honesty I need to thin down my collection. It's in mint condition, and, if not required I can replace the East pre with the original one to make the bass cheaper at £400.

    If anyone buys it as is I'll send the original pre along with it.

    I am looking for a nice 4 string unlined fretless, so would be open to trades for the right one with cash either way.

    Any questions, feel free to ask.

    High quality decal wanted

    in Repairs and Technical

    Don't know whether this is in the right forum, but here goes.

    I'm completing a refinish on my Washburn status headless, which I've refinished in white. What I need now is a high quality decal making. I've previously bought a good quality waterside Fender decal from Northwest Guitars and something like that would be ideal, however, I believe they just buy them in, perhaps from the states, so may not be able to create me one.

    In fairness the decal is all in black, and I have created the decal in a graphics program, but I don't have the equipment to produce a high quality waterslide.

    So, can anyone point me in the right direction? I would settle for a vinyl graphic, but it would have to be really in a very thin material as I want to lacquer over it and don't want to be able to feel an edge.

    Any ideas?

    Just bought a Squier VM Jazz of Chris.

    Communications were spot on and I found him very accommodating. Bass was just as described and spot on!

    Highly recommended.
