Hi all. This is a fantastic bass and in great condition. I have never gigged, rehearsed with it a few times and mainly played at home but that’s it. Just finding it’s not really what I am looking for and I am using my Heavily modded P Bass for most of my playing at the moment. For the interests of clarity and honesty there are a few small chips around the neck pocket which I have tried to picture, I think it’s from where the neck has been taken off to be adjusted as it’s a butt end adjustment. It appears that when the neck has been put back on, it appears that they’ve gone a bit tight on the neck plate as there appears to be the marks in the finish around the plate, as I have tried to picture in the photos. It was like this when I bought it from Richtone June 2024, I haven’t had the neck off. This is just in the finish, it’s only really noticeable if you go looking for them and it doesn’t structurally effect the bass in anyway. Other than the finish issues at the neck pocket and neck plate, the bass is in great shape, shows some light playing marks as to be expected but nothing, other than the metioned neck pocket, that breaks the surface, it plays superbly with DR Hi Beams 45’s on it, it sounds exactly as it should tonally and it has been well looked after by myself. All the case candy is still in its packaging. Ideally and preferably i’m after a trade/swap for a P/J Style Bass like a Fender US Deluxe/Elite, Spector Euro 4, Yamaha BB2024x/BBP34 or a G&L USA L1500 or L2000 (maple board) or Lakland MM/J (maple board). Can be swayed by a 5 string version of any of the above as well. Price on the listing is reflective of trade value. Would be happy to sell as well, but have a preference for trade/swap at this point. I am happy to answer any or all questions. Please don’t think that the above list is set in stone in terms of trades and happy to hear cash offers. Thanks. Below is all the information from Fender.

Hi! Up for grabs if my 60’s p bass pickup from House of Tone. Matt is a pickup making beast and uses the highest quality components and hand wires them in the City of Chester. I had this on my “Trigger’s Broom” P-Bass as the stock Mexican pickup and the Delano I had put in just wasn’t cutting it. This pickup just brought it to life, that classic/vintage P tone in spades, works well with flats & rounds alike. I have however had Matt build me a custom designed FeReCo pickup now and he’s kindly installed that for me, thus this is now surplus to requirements. P-Bass '62 and 70's style P-bass pickup use flat Alnico V magnets with original spacing for the bridge and neck positions. Very full and with a bit of a peak in the mids. The '62s have a touch more mids and gain while the 70's is a bit less aggressive with more presence and upper mids due to the lower resistance. 5 string version available as well. Cloth covered hook up for '62 or vintage correct plastic for 70's. Available in black or white covers. DCR: '62 10.5K bridge, 70's 9.8K.* £50 or make me an offer and I’ll include postage in whatever is agreed. cheers Tim

Hi, I am selling my 1994 Made In Japan, Fender Jazz Bass, Fretless JB62-FL. As you can see it’s in well loved and used condition which is to be expected with a 30 year old working instrument. That said it sounds amazing, plays superbly well, really channels that Jaco sound and aesthetic. Plenty of that fretless mwah and also has that classic Jazz Bass growl. Weighing in at 3.5kgs/7.7lbs and sits very comfortably on the shoulders Set up with Elite Flatwounds & It comes with a TGI Extreme Padded gig bag to protect it when you’re taking it out. I’ll include an Ernie Ball Strap as well. I have a box so shipping is doable. I am open to trades/part exs. But please don’t be offended if I decline. I have my eye on something so cash would be king in this case. Any questions, please ask away. Thanks.

Sorely tempted by this…

The things I would do for the cab alone… I have the 2 x 12 vertical cab but would much prefer that 4 x 10 as I feel that would give me exactly what I am looking for. Good luck with the sale mate someone is going to get one helluva rig for a great price!
