And sold!

On hold - that was quick!

And replied

Hi - reluctantly selling my Japanese Fender Medium Scale Jazz (JB62M). I imported this myself from Ishibashi in Japan & was a now discontinued non-export model, so a bit of a rare bass over here. Basically, it is a '62-style Jazz Bass, but slightly scaled down in proportion to the smaller scale length, which is a bit like playing one fret up. Since discovering the 32" scale I've pretty much given up on full scale now, as it's so much more comfier & lighter (this was weighed by Ishibashi as a very comfortable 3.9Kg, or 8.6lb). Condition is really good - I was told it is from 2012 & only has a bit of light play wear, which was there when I bought it. It plays really nicely & can't fault it - only selling it as I'm not playing as much as I'd like since the kids came along & it deserves to be played. I'm based in Newcastle upon Tyne & would like £500 collected for it. Postage could be an option - send me a PM & I'll see what I can do... Cheers, B.

Thanks for all the interest, but I've decided to withdraw this & hang on to it for now...

Bump - open to offers for a cash / collection deal...

Thanks for the interest - sold it locally. Cheers B.

Bump - still interested in a trade for a short scale bass

[quote name='basski' timestamp='1471703297' post='3115208'] love it !!! [/quote] Cheers!

Bump!

[quote name='Tonteee' timestamp='1471283178' post='3111823'] If I lived anywhere near Newcastle upon Tyne, you'd have sold this..... Is there no postal option? [/quote] Hi Tonteee - was hoping for a cash / collection deal ideally as don't have much packing material to hand for this. Will see if I can sort something out. Alternatively, PM me your location - know a few people who get around... Cheers, B.

[quote name='FlatEric' timestamp='1471245744' post='3111420'] Free bump for a great bass. £200 is an absolute steal - one of the nicest Medium scale basses out there. Someone grab it - you can't go wrong. [/quote] Thanks Eric! Totally agree - build quality is up there with top-end SBs I've seen & it has a lovely burp played near the bridge. Only found one other advertised & it's a lot more than this - if I had more space in the house I'd keep it... Cheers, B.

Bump!

Bump!

Bump - surprised this is still here, so open to offers...

Bump! Will consider trading this for a short scale bass with cash either way for the right instrument...

No problem Paul - good luck with your clear out!

Just restrung this with some medium scale Thomastik flats I forgot I had & it sounds great! I'll do it with the Thomastiks on & a new set of the Status 40-100 flats like it had on in the video (another find today!) for £600 posted. Cheers, B.
