HI Guys

I've got a 1985 72 reissue Jazz Bass (sn:a0****6) that i'm thinking of selling. It's in good condition and has a bit of a wear and tear with being 24 years old (like me haha) It's finished in natural so you can see the superb grain and has a maple neck. It's got seymour duncan JB quarter pounders in it to give it better clarity and warmth and it really has improved the quality over the stock pick ups. As i've said it has a few dings here and there and the back of the neck has a few dings and marks on it but nothing that in my opinion affects playability and this is how i purchased it a year ago. I've taken some photos to show the major dings and the back of the neck so i'm not hiding anything. comes with a padded warwick gig bag, spare black pickguard. Reason for selling i've recently purchased a Fender Roscoe Beck IV, Status Groove Bass V and a Rickenbacker 4003 and the jazz bass as lovely as she is has become a bit surplus to requirements.

Give me some ideas please and if the price is right we'll have a deal :-)

Hahaha! I however don't want to lose that much Doe!

Yeah I guess I mean i've had a couple of rehearsals with it, one saturday and one sunday and I've ended up reverting back to my Jazz because I know where I am with it, it just fits the sound I am going for. Maybe this was just one of those rash purchases, sounds great in the shop but when you try to get it to fit what you want it to do outside it's not exactly what you're looking for.

Hi All!

Please bare in mind that this is just a feeler, I'm only considering selling. I literally bought this bass, brand new from Back Alley Music, Chester on Saturday and as beautiful and amazing sounding as it is, I'm not quite sure it's me and what I'm looking for from my bass sound, bare in mind I'm also using a 72 reissue Jazz Bass and I feel I would still pick that and use that as my first bass! You'll be aware of the price i've just paid for this, so reasonable ideas/offers will be considered as it is pretty much a brand new bass guitar. It's the transparent crimson red finish with rosewood neck! You can see the grain and it's really a stunner. I still haven't removed the covering from the pickguard. Basically I'm wondering if anyone would be possibly interested in buying it?! If so how much are you willing to offer, bare in mind I would possibly go for a part-ex for a Rickenbacker 4003 (preferably in Jetglo or Mapleglo?! Although not too fussy!)

Here's a few pictures just to give you a taster, sorry about quality of the photographs taken with that glorious piece of technology that is the iPhone!:

[quote name='benwhiteuk' post='463417' date='Apr 15 2009, 09:32 PM']Got any pictures? Is this the one with the built in Korg tuner?[/quote]

The US Models all came with the Rackmounted Korg Dt1000 tuner however the british export models didn't for some reason?! But as you can see there's a space for that very purpose and on the back there's a tuner out jack. You can pick the tuners up very reasonably if it's something that you would want to add on, i've had a single unit rack delay in there and have had a lot of fun with it!

Bump!

It's 350 watts as far as I can gather and you've got the opportunity to add a further 1 x 15 cabinet underneath, its eminence custom design speakers and it has a horn which gives it a very full range of tone, it has a parametric EQ, room enhancer so you can change the sound to suit the room you're in. Compressor is pretty nifty, foot controller for the EQ. Quite a clever amp considering it's size. It's an absolute cracker of an amp, i've been using a Status Groove Bass 5 string and Fender 72 reissue Jazz Bass through it and it makes both sing! However I've decided I want to expand my rig and whilst going for something a bit more portable (head and cab separate). I will get some photos up later, i'm going to be clear i've gigged this amp playing with a Zappa band, a rock band, a metal band and a progressive rock band and the amount of versatility this little baby gives is superb! However i must be clear, although mechanically the amp is absolutely perfect, my cat seems to find it the perfect scratching post and no matter where I hide it she finds it and has clawed at it, I've repaired where the covering has come away and it really doesn't affect the sound and it doesn't look too noticeable. As you'll be aware Fender no longer make this amp, which is a bloody shame if you ask me. If you need anymore technical spec give me a shout Anyway i'll post some photos if required please check out these reviews that back up what i've just said. <url>http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Bass+Amp/product/Fender/Bassman+400+Pro+210+Combo/10/1</url>

I'm looking for an offer I can't refuse it was £1000 when i bought it and I am willing to deliver/meet halfway if not too far away!

Go on....You know you want to!
