Thanks Giblett, yes they are : )
Reduced to sell

I bought a Polytune pedal from Wud and he sent it out really fast. Thanks

Thanks a lot for your kind comments guys.
Yes, I tried loads and loads of basses before I bought this one - it really just sounded the best to my ears.
Only selling as I need to fund a chunk of the costs (that sadly my label isn't keen to cover) involved in releasing my debut album

Hey thanks mate - what's GLWTS? Sorry, still need to get hip to the basschat lingo!

Hi,
Doing this with a bit of a heavy heart but needs must.
This is an exceptional bass. Absolutely awesome sounding and stunning instrument. The neck is really thin and comfortable.
All hand made by Rob Elrick in his Chicago workshop.
I'm using their photos as it's in as new condition. Just a few very light and hardly noticeable marks on the back.
I would definitely recommend trying it out if you have the chance.
Collection from London or I'm happy to look into shipping if that's helpful.
£ - and includes original hard case, strap locks and all the bits.
No trades, sorry.

Any questions or if you'd like to come and try it, please let me know
Many thanks

[b]Gold Series Basses[/b]

The Gold Series of guitars include instruments that feature bolt-on neck construction. They are identifiable by their gold leaf emblem and are available in "Classic", "e-volution" and "New Jazz Standard" body shapes. All bodies feature a "heel-less" body design for exceptional upper register access and an asymmetrical bolt pattern offering exceptional stability.

All instruments are hand carved from the finest hardwoods, including swamp ash or alder bodies and necks constructed of quarter-sawn hard maple or quarter-sawn wengé. Other woods are always available by special request.

I'd be happy to send them both out for £10

Thanks a lot for the offer. I'm sure it would be amazing having something like that behind me but it exceeds my needs sadly

a little googling has revealed that 3.5kg is relatively light for a jazz...

Hi Paul,
According to our old analog bathroom scales it's about 3.5 kilos. Sorry can't be more accurate

Dear Bass People

I've reluctantly decided to part with this instrument. I bought this American Standard model new in 2005 and it's been my main bass all through my studies which included 4 years on the Guildhall jazz course. I always said I wouldn't sell it but I guess it's not good to be too sentimental. I've used it extensively but looked after it well. Inevitably it does have a few little marks.

It's a really fantastic instrument and I'm only selling because I now mostly use more strings and can't keep more than the absolutely necessary. I think the main reasons why this is such a great sounding instrument and superior to my ears to many other Fender Jazz's is because:

a. It has the ash body. There's probably a reason why so many high end luthiers use ash.
b. the S1 switch. For those of you who aren't familiar with this, pressing the inconspicuous button in the volume knob changes the pick up configuration from series to parallel, giving a whole new range of useful sounds and making this bass even more versatile. Really can't imagine why Fender stopped doing this.

The colour is a really rare Sunset Translucent which I believe they don't make anymore either. It's rather lovely.

Fender now only make Ash bodied Jazz basses in the Deluxe version which cost £1441 on andertons.co.uk The American Standard model at the same shop is £1067 and when I bought it the Ash body upgrade was a £100 extra. Therefore I'm asking for [b]. [/b]Comes with original hard case and all case candy. It's a one-off bass.


Interested people are welcome to try it out in London.
Many thanks

price drop

thanks for your offer, but i'll decline since i've already found another amp

really sorry, thanks for pointing that out. can now be collected near east grinstead if that's easier

This is a really great sounding amp in excellent condition. I bought it new and used it on gigs but always looked after it well so it has no scratches.

I'm selling because I no longer have a car and so need something smaller and lighter.

Comes with manual, receipt, kettle lead and original box.

£150

Inspection welcome in London or East Grinstead

Thanks
