The bass is still available. @Cosmo Valdemar : Darkstars were a reproduction of the originals Hagstrom Bisonic pickups, as are the Dagstars of Roger Daguet. He began making these pickups because Darkstars were not available anymore.

Bump !

This unique sounding Gibson SG, custom made is still on sale ! If you want that Darkstar pickup sound, this is the one !

bump !

Still available !

Jebo1 : the pickups are from the french maker Hepcat, the 1972 reissue model : http://hepcatpickups.com/?product=jazz-bass-72 CH161 : the stamp on the end on the neck is not visible anymore, the only one visible is the "INSP 31" stamp. Geek 99 : Thanks !

Sorry, I am not interested in trades, I sell this bass to fund another photographic project.

Thanks for your messages ! @walshy : yes the color is gorgeous, and the relic job is very well done, very natural. j@azzmanb : Interesting, so there were 75 Jazz Bass with 4 bolts neck ?

Hi, 

I am selling this unique bass, based on a 2012 Gibson SG Faded Bass (made in USA), modified by the french luthier Roger Daguet. 

I have made him change the original pickups by his own "Dagstar" pickups, a faithful handmade reproduction of the originals Hagstrom Bisonic pickups that Fred Hammon had already reproduced for the Darkstar pickups. 

More informations and sound about these pickups on this page :

 [url="http://www.daguetguitars.com/index.php?gratte=62&lang=en&PHPSESSID=b0ca74906ffd8139dd4424fb45646761"]http://www.daguetgui...d4424fb45646761[/url] The structure of the magnets in these pickups are truly unique, resulting in a very dynamic sound, natural and warm and with lots of clarity.

 The neck pickup is an humbucker and the bridge one is a single coil, resulting in differents sounds, that you can mix with the controls (two volume and a tone).

 The electronic has also been changed, with quality pots and wire. Finally, I asked Roger to make a bone nut instead of the original plastic one. I still have the original pickups, pots, wire and nut.

 Then the bass has been entirely set-up with new strings (D'addario nickel roundwound).

 The final result is outstanding, this is definitely not the same bass ! The sound of these pickups is incredible. I sell this one only because I have ordered a bass from Roger Daguet with the exact same pickups !

 The bass is in Paris, France, it comes with the original Gibson hard case, and I can ship it in Europe with tracking and insurance.

 Here is my feedback : [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/180620-feedback-for-lagartixas/page__p__1718299__hl__lagartixas__fromsearch__1#entry1718299"]http://basschat.co.u..._1#entry1718299[/url] Cheers !

Hi, I have finally decided to sell my beloved Jazz Bass to fund another project. It is difficult because this bass is a great instrument. It has an original 1974 Fender neck with block pearl inlays and white binding, mounted on a Fender body (I don't know the date of the body - it is almost impossible to find) The body has been professionally refinished with nitrocellulose lacquer and slightly relic'ed to match with the natural aging of the neck. The electronics and pots are original Fender from 1971 according to the pots codes (304 71 16). The neck plate serial is 644XXX, so from 1975, but it is a 4 bolts plate so it may not be the original one (Fender change to 3-bolt neck plates on Jazz Bass in 1974). The pickups are from Hepcat, model Jazz Bass 1972. They sound awesome ! This bass is clearly a player, it is not a collector piece, but it is a joy to play, the neck is amazing (one of the best I had). The bass is in Paris, France, I can ship it to all Europe with tracking and full insurance. Here is my feedback : [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/180620-feedback-for-lagartixas/page__p__1718299__hl__lagartixas__fromsearch__1#entry1718299"]http://basschat.co.u..._1#entry1718299[/url]

Hello, The bass is sold, sorry !

Hello ! Sadly I have to sell my beloved Jazz Bass from 1968. Everything on this one is original. The bass is Olympic White with matching headstock. The condition is near mint, simply amazing for a bass of this age. Comes with its original Fender hard case and the pickups covers. The sound of this bass is incredible, the best Jazz I owned. The bass is in Paris, France, but I can send it with full insurance and tracking to the UK. I have already sold a bass here, my feedback on basschat : [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/180620-feedback-for-lagartixas/page__p__1718299__hl__lagartixas__fromsearch__1#entry1718299"]http://basschat.co.u..._1#entry1718299[/url] I will soon make some more pictures of the neck stamp, the pots...

Monday bump for this great Pbass !

Thanks Gub ! Monday bump !
