    Belated hi from South Shropshire / West Mids

    in Introductions

    Posted

    Hi guys, 

    Bit of a late hello from me! Been on the forum for 10+ years - joined when I was in Bristol at Uni, and have always checked in, bought & sold gear and followed threads while I was in London working in music over the last 10 years.

    Recently moved back home to the West Mids / South Shropshire, and thought it would be cool to connect with some other local bassists.

     

    I'm Mike Prince - feel free to drop me a message on Insta! http://www.instagram.com/mikepbass

     

    Hope to catch you soon!

    Mike

    Ah thanks so much man! Are you sure it wouldn't fit in well with its bigger bro's and sisters? 😁

    May I ask the weight? Are you after any trades?

    I can't weight the bass, but as a comparison it's no where near as heavy as my Mexican Precision or Chinese Jazz. I'd say it's a little heavier than a mustang due to the size of the scaled down Alder bodied Jazz bass body, but not by miles.

    Not looking for trades sorry - only looking for a straight sale!

    Thanks!

    Sold

    Selling an INCREDIBLE 2013 Fender Modern Player Jazz Bass with the sought after 30” short scale length in beautiful trans White Blonde with a 3 Ply Tort Pickguard, P/J configuration Pickups, Rosewood fretboard and a Fender Hi Mass Bridge. 

    Only around 200 of these were Made in China in 2013 so grab a beautiful example of a rare, amazing sounding and easy to play Fender Modern Player Jazz that’s a little different because of its shorter 30” scale length (like a Mustang bass), and the incredible sounding P/J pickup configuration.

    Bass is in fantastic condition with only one slight ding on the back of the headstock (pictured below the serial number), a slight scratch on the back of the neck (doesn’t affect feel or playability at all) and there are two holes in the scratch plate if you wanted to insert a thumb-rest / tug bar as is quite popular on a lot of basses these days.

    The high gloss urethane lacquer over the white blonde finish really is phenomenal - the photos just don’t show how clear the wood grain shows through the lacquer! This was a common finish (in different colours) on many of the Fender American Deluxe series of bases in the late 90’s / early 00’s.

    The P/J pickup configuration provides classic, punchy tones having the best of both, and the short scale length makes this bass perfect for live and recording. 
    It’s a much more versatile bass (IMO) than the Fender JMJ signature bass or any other Mustang Bass / Short Scale Fender because of the versatile pickup configuration, and it’s ideal for any player who prefers a lighter weighing bass (great for those who play longer gigs!) 

    The scale = Short Scale, 30" (762 mm), according to official Fender specs.

    The Fender high mass bridge provides more contact to the body, increasing sustain and enabling perfect intonation with the adjustable bridge saddles.

    It comes with a one piece 3-ply tortoiseshell pickguard that also replaces the chrome control plate on standard Jazz basses - a nice touch aesthetically.
    The bass has been fully set up, cleaned and intonated ready for the new owner. 

    Full specs can be seen here: https://www.gak.co.uk/en/fender-modern-player-short-scale-jazz-bass-white-blonde/100117

    Bass doesn’t come with a gig bag or case unfortunately. 

    Cash on Collection ONLY (WON'T BE POSTING) from North Greenwich in South East London, adhering to social distancing rules, thought I may be able to deliver depending on your location (I travel to the Midlands quite frequently).


    If you would like any more photos or information please don’t hesitate to get in touch!

    New Squier Classic Vibe Colours?

    in Bass Guitars

    Posted

    They're for UK sale, not US. They did an Aztec gold and seafoam one in the Mark 1 versions of the CV 10 years ago.

    This is indeed one of the new colours of the CV available at the end of May / June - look at the logo on the headstock - it's the newer style one, not the same as the logos / decals that were on the Mk 1 CV's.
