Raslee

Cheers, keeping in the spirit of B/C and passing the gift! If I put in on eBay I’d add a lot more for sure. This bass really is worth a lot more.

The one in, one out policy is very strong with Mrs Raslee currently due to saving so this one is very sadly up for sale due to another purchase. Admittedly I would easily be keeping this bass and selling something else if it wasn't on the heavier side for my stupidly sensitive glass back, but at at 9.2lbs it is not a boat anchor by any means, rather all my basses are now less than 8.2lbs and i have become accustomed to that - all with comfort straps! When i got this bass i felt this was the bargain of the century - this is 'super jazz' territory! The sound, the quality, just simply everything about this bass really is spot on (see the previous F/S add) and i've owned many high end jazzes to compare. As aforementioned though, the weight for me just ain't happening, which means it's unlikely to get the use it really deserves. So i am confident whoever buys this will be equally as happy with their bargain. What i do also really like is the passive setting (passive tone too), which is perfectly matched with the active when flat, just add the active for taste - the sounds range from a nice clean modern to vintage warm 60's tones. I've priced it at £500 due to the addition of the D-tuner but would be happy to remove this and sell at the original B/c price which i got it for of £450 which is ludicrously cheap for a bass of this high standard....definitely one of my favourite jazzes owned to date and will be sad to see this one go! Hope @RhysP you don't mind me using the original add (sorry to sell this one, t'is the beauty you described!) Original sale add here: Collection Plymouth or happy to discuss courier options (around £20 ish in the UK). NO TRADES THANKS.

I’ll have this, pm coming

What’s the weight mate? I’ve got a very nice Baachus but it’s a little on the heavier side for me.

Long shot but don’t suppose you still have this for sale. My NJ4 neck has died!

Decided to put this one up for sale/trade as it's unlikely to get used due to already having 3 jazz basses. So why so cheap? Well cosmetically its far from the best, yet plays great! The bad: When i got it i set out to change the decal as, like many, i really didn't like that RSD logo. The job was going well, so thought I'd age the slightly anemic neck with a bit of some tint - big mistake!. Unfortunately the tint i got off Amazon was truly terrible as it went a horrible orange despite light coats. I eventually sanded this off leaving the neck dare i say a bit 'grubby' - that said it plays absolutely fine and is very smooth indeed. It has had a tung oil light coat since. The next disaster was upon fitting my German Sadwosky Pre with VTC when the soldering iron fell against the body whilst popping to the loo...doh! See pic of pea sized burn by the control plate. There is also various hairline scratches, a small dink around the arm rest, and more visual scratches around the jack socket and top of headstock -again nothing that effects playability, all cosmetic. I since sold the original preamp and pickups and used my Sadowsky pre in another bass, so this was eventually made as passive. It has a Seymour Duncan in the neck and a generic in the bridge - sounds really good, the slap tone in particular. Obviously a new owner could put another pre in as the side jack and battery compartment are present. The good, The neck plays lovely, low action with no buzzes. The weight is only 8lbs so nice and light. The tone as i say is really good, surprisingly good in fact. Excellent Sadowsky tuners and bridge, upgraded string retainer like on the US models. Sadowsky adjustable nut. Truss rod is perfect. Passive controls are from a Squier CV bass. Will thrown in an old Warwick gig bag for the transport if necessary. As i say i have too many jazzes so would entertain a trade for a non jazz bass , or TC Elf, and could add up to £200 to a deal (despite currently trying to save pennies ahem!) I also have a Markbass 2x10" Traveler cab i could lose too. Other than that £200 gets it within the UK.

Does this come with pots, cabling etc?

The Sires are gone but I have an Aguilar bridge and a neck pick that I can’t remember what the make was that I could possibly part with. I’ve also got the Maidavale set still available too.

Did an outdoor blues/Dad rock gig with my recently purchased Eden WT550 yesterday (3rd WT i've owned to date)- A/B it against my usual gig amp, a Markbass LMTube, and the Eden blew the MB out the water by a country mile - heft, heft and more heft! You could just feel something that the Markbass lacked., which bought a satisfaction i haven't felt in a while either. The Eden maybe heavy by comparison to the Class D stuff but the sounds are to die for. Some of the best amps ever made the WT series! Someone buy this bargain, I'm sure you'll love it - GLWTS.

….and sold

Here goes, finally decided to put my baby up for sale after procrastinating for many months - only selling to part fund a family USA holiday next year. This is my pride and joy so go easy, and by far the best bass i will have ever owned bar none! All original genuine 74 P goodness from Fender apart from currently fitted with Kiogon loom due to scratchy tone pot on originals (included), old pots are functional but just opted for the ease of the kiogon loom. Original 70's case. B width neck , a nice light 8.8lbs and sounds and plays truly superb...I guess that should be obvious by the real players mojo! Ash trays and tug bar included, chip to scratch plate by jack but glued. Truss rod and tuners are fine, everything is functioning fine and will for years to come. Now, i would consider a part trade of a cheaper P bass only i.e. Fender, Lakland, Squiers etc,must be under 9lbs in weight and up to max value of £700 as i need to clear 2K to keep Mrs Raslee happy. Viewing most welcome, Plymouth, happy to courier if buyer arranges this and accepts all risk -cash in my account first of course. Right i am off to wipe the tears! Here's the funk:-
