Bought this bass last week direct from Mark Ramsay. For those that don't know, Mark is an incredible bass builder and his instruments are of the highest quality. This bass is no exception, but there are a few issues that you should be aware of before purchasing.
I'm in no rush to sell and will happily hang on to bass if no interest.
All sales are final with no refunds.
Original hand-crafted instrument by Mark Ramsay (RMI).

Please Read
Truss road adjustment is limited due to incorrect fitting. This means that the string action is fixed into a medium / standard feel like a standard P bass. Still very comfortable to play. The bass could also do with a fret dressing as the frets do have some sharp edges.
Will only ship to UK addresses. Postage is £25.
Has anyone ordered from this shop recently as I'm trying to find out if I will be charged VAT when bringing the guitar into the UK? I think they are based in the Netherlands, but I have heard mixed reports of no VAT charged? Can't see anything on the website to indicate that? Looking to order a bass at £2000+ so don't want any surprises when it arrives 😂
The bass is as new, zero signs of wear, use or damage. Stunning bass, but sadly the neck profile is not to my liking. £849 RRP. Selling at low price to move on, but can't stress enough, the bass is as NEW. Will be securely posted in gig bag. Please note, I only post to UK addresses. £15 for postage. Message for more details.

Does anyone know the neck pocket size for this bass? Thinking of picking one up and replacing the neck with a status graphite jazz neck. Not sure if it will be a match?
Can someone recommend somewhere that would offer a bass refinish at a cost effective price? Looking to get one of my basses finished in silver flake. Please don't recommend doing it myself as it would end up a disaster 😂
Thanks for info, but does anyone know of someone i could send bass body to who could build me a neck and fit it to bass? My budget is £250. Most companies online only offer full custom bass options not just neck.
Does anyone know where or who makes Jazz necks with a radius of 12 or 14? I can find plenty of jazz necks with 9.5 but that's about it. Working on a bass build and need to find a neck that does not break the bank.
Looking to update my squire Jazz with new pickups (passive or active) including EQ. Can anyone recommend anything sold as a set? Budget is roughly £100(ish) I'm not that knowledgeable to buy Pickups and EQ separate so looking for an easy option where someone has paired them up for selling. Hope this makes sense.
