Bassman1974

Likewise, I'd be all over that if I didn't already have a FG 4003. Funnily enough, I just sold a P bass that I tried to love for about 3 years. They're just not for me, with the conclusion being that I can only entertain J's and Ric's. How different we all are. Anyway, GLWTS !

And the annoying chrome bezel is gone too. I found it's removal made mine far, far more playable. Lovely colour combo with the AG and gold. GLWTS

I've just located a hard case in the loft, so the bass will be shipped in this

As were fitted to one of the many Jazz basses in the arsenal. Maybe for an hour or so. They're just not for me. Cut generously for Fender spacing. £35 posted

Now £700 plus delivery. I'd rather like to avoid putting it on the bay if possible !

Thank you, it's really something special I think. The bodywork is a total credit to the former owner. I'd absolutely love a Jazz done the same way..

The sound is unbelievable. Funnily they weren't great on my Precision, of which now happily uses Labella low tension strings. I also have TI's on my Oly Fender Jazz. I love the sound that comes from that beast. Fender flats were also excellent on the Aerodyne. My Vintera Jazz and my son's budget Jazz both use well worn sets of Fender flats, and I will never change the strings on these.

Well, I'm in no rush to sell it anyway. If it goes, it goes. Otherwise I'll just keep it. Same story with my Precision. It's been up for sale for a while now. But thanks for the kind words anyway 🙂

I've a lovely Aerodyne Jazz for sale. Serial number dates it at 95-96 MIJ, and it's wearing its years very well. Plays great, neck is straight and it polishes up lovely. There's a few marks here and there, which I've tried to capture in the photos. Strings are recently fitted Tomastik TI Jazz Flats, along with Schaller S Lock buttons. Happy to send via Parcelforce in a Hiscox hardcase ( included in the sale ) to UK addresses. Price now reduced to a very reasonable £750 🙂 Cheers

Here's one that should be having the frets played off of it, but I'm really gravitating toward my Jazz basses nowadays. I dare say I'll probably regret this sale given time, as it's fairly unique and very handsome, but it seems pointless to have it gathering dust and taking space up. Spec: Neck: Fender American Standard Rosewood dated 2005. Straight and true. Beautiful silky smooth finish on the rear. An absolute joy to move around. Body: Northwest New Ash. Originally painted with poly, it was fully stripped back before having some nitro / varnish thrown at it. It was then rubbed back to show the effect that you can see in the photos. It's stunning. No gouges as such. Some light scratches. You can see a natural shiny mark where my wrist has been sitting during playing. The weight is very light indeed. Custom brass pickguard from TinyTone recently fitted, which is starting to patina beautifully. I've black and tort guards that I'll throw in also. Pickups / controls: new Tonerider classic pickups. Solderless controls. All recently fitted. Cavities are all shielded. No hum. Metalwork: Gotoh vintage bridge. Gotoh vintage tuners. I had to reuse the original bushings for the tuners as the Gotoh ones were a touch loose. I roughed them up a bit. Looks fine I think. Bronze coloured control knobs. Relic pickguard screws. Schaller S Lock strap buttons. Strings: Recently Tomastik TI flats. Admittedly still quite sticky so need a good bit of breaking in. I'll attach a few picks of the various pickguards I've fitted in the past. Located in Thurso, miles from anywhere. Post will be required I'd imagine. I'd really prefer to send this in a hard case, of which I've none spare at the moment. I'm sure a solution could be found though. I do have an old gig bag and a Fender cardboard box that would probably work for sending. I'm not looking for trades at the moment. I've decided that 6 other bass guitars are enough. Price reduced to £750. Any questions, fire away. Cheers, George
