If this thing had block inlays I don't think I'd be able to resist for even a second... So close to my perfect bass! Will be keeping an eye on it for sure. GLWTS!

Price dropped to £270! Comes with a solid hard case too.

Up for sale is my 2021 G&L Tribute JB Jazz Bass in the always stunning Lake Placid Blue. Try as I might (and believe me I have tried quite a few times over the years) to love Jazz basses, I think I need to come to terms that I'm a P bass guy. Hence this is up on the chopping block. It's in great condition, with only one small blemish to the finish that I can see (it is pictured) and to the binding (also pictured). Please excuse some of the picture colour disparity - taken in a room with relatively yellow lighting, and auto colour balance can only be so magical! Feels good to play, currently set up with minimal neck relief and about a 1.75mm action across the board. I think a light touch player could go a little lower, but it's in that good honky Jazz territory at present. Recently strung with a fresh set of Rotosounds 45-105. Truss rod has room and responds well to adjustment. All electronics are working as expected. Some surprisingly nice bit of birdseyeing in the maple neck, which I certainly didn't expect to see from a more affordable bass. If I had to be a bugbear, I'd argue the binding across the neck is pretty bang average. Other than that I think it's a really solid bass for the money, I just need a bit more wood on my necks 😂 Prefer collection from near Nottingham, though I travel a good amount and am happy to meet within reasonable distances. Cheers!

My first 5er was a 735a and it is a proper workhorse. Loads of great features - 45 degree string through body, 6 bolt neck joint and a five piece laminate neck for tons of stability, a battery light indicator (why don't all actives have this!) and a true passive/active toggle (i.e. passive mode works with a dead battery) with a passive tone baked into the treble control. String spacing is on the narrower side too at the nut, making it feel much less jarring to transition from playing 4s. I did a small bit of nut filing from the factory's specs, but it set up great and sounded very bright and modern. A set of GHS pressurewounds made it really come to life! If you're looking for a good 5 to start your journey I honestly doubt you'd beat this at the price!

PMed you mate.

For anyone on the fence of picking up a JMJ - I literally have to go out of my way to play other basses or I'd just take one of these to every single gig, so do yourself a favour and pick one up. GLTWS and sorry to hear about the health troubles mate.

You got any pics mate? Assuming this is the MIM model?

So badly wish I had the funds for this, had an eye on it since it went up. Only an hour away too! Type of thing that keeps you awake at night haha. GLWTS!

Ash is a great guy to deal with - I purchased a bass that looked eerily similar to this one from him a few months back! Buy with confidence guys. GLWTS Ash!
