  1. Fender Jazz Ultra £1,400 plus courier (Prefer a cash sale, but trade wise a Rickenbacker 4003 in Midnight blue would do it)

     

    Very sadly I need to split up my blues brothers Fenders, (as photographed) for sale is my beautiful US Fender Jazz Ultra in Cobra Blue. She has been pretty much left in her case since purchasing her in December of last year with just the odd noodle.

     

    I purchased a second scratch plate (white perloid) as wasn’t too keen on the stock one, but happy to supply both to the buyer.

     

    No marks or skuffs at all, and as clean as the day I bought her. 
     

    specs below and the sale is within UK only, happy to pack up and send by insured courier at your expense, these go for just under £2k new so grab yourself a bargain! 

    Blurb:

    American Ultra is our most advanced series of guitars and basses for discerning players who demand the ultimate in precision, performance and tone. The American Ultra Jazz Bass features a unique “Modern D” neck profile for hours of playing comfort, and the tapered neck heel allows easy access to the highest register. A speedy 10”-14” compound-radius fingerboard with 21 medium-jumbo frets means effortless action, while the Ultra Noiseless™ Vintage pickups and redesigned preamp provide endless tonal possibilities – without hum. The sculpted rear body contours are as beautiful as they are functional. This versatile, state-of-the-art instrument will inspire you to push your playing to new heights.

    Other features include “F”-stamped lightweight vintage-paddle tuning machines with tapered shafts, chrome hardware and bone nut. Includes premium molded hardshell case.

  2. Hi,

     

    Loving my new Fender Ultra jazz in cobra blue, but not a big fan of the stock pick guard and looking for a replacement. The problem is the pick guard appears to be unique, with a 9 screw hole finish.

     

    Have looked high and low in the UK, but cannot find anywhere that can supply, in fact could only find a custom supplier in the states that can supply. I believe they are custom made as Fender do not appear to manufacture replacements for the current flag ship model.

     

    Anyone potentially know of a UK supplier?
     

    Cheers,

    Steve.

  3. My only issue would be the same one levelled against the ‘Gallery’ where you can add a bass to the basket, pay for it to then be told sorry, someone got in there before you, I presume that bigger outfits such as GAK or Andertons have more expensive stock control systems that update the levels upon a purchase.

     

    this stung me when (for 9 hours) I was the proud paid up owner of a Wal MK1 only to be informed the next morning at 9:30am someone bought it an hour before me, but the bass was still showing as available.
