Just get your hand in your pocket & own this one Gav. You deserve it 😁

I won't then 🤣. As is always the case cunning plan gone awry! Wanted to sell one bass & 2 sold on the same day. So, trade please. Your finest maple boarded post 2006 American Standard Precision in excellent nick would be most welcome 😁

Hiya Gavin, hope you're ok fella. The Deluxe & Elite Dimensions didn't come with a passive option (although my Elite Jazz has been converted to totally passive Ki0Gon stack knobs with series/parallel switch. Superb! 😁) The Andertons blowout included about a dozen Dimension Elites at £900, early 2017? Most people, including me, missed out, they were gone in a couple of days. Same as the Genz Benz blowout of '14?

Surprisingly a Cayenne up on Feebay at £1388 and a Natural on Faecesbook at £1300, both same spec but nothing like as pretty as mine (opinion). Currently priced in the realm of fantasy. Not ridiculously so Russ, powerful but controllable. Just to save anybody else asking, selector switch; Position 1. Full Bridge Humbucking Pickup, Position 2. Inner Coils of Bridge and Middle Pickup, Position 3. Full Humbucking Middle and Bridge, Position 4. Outer Coils of Middle and Bridge Pickup, Position 5.Full Middle Humbucking

Stunning Swamp Ash body with Violin Burst finish Asymmetric neck profile (simply fits your hand, deeper on bass side, shallower on treble side). Hand rubbed oil finish. Graphite support rods. IMO best necks Fender have ever made. Compound radius fingerboard 9.5 inch bottom end to 14 inch top end. 21 frets for that high E. Nut width 41.3mm Stealth A string retainer Truss rod wheel at heel end of neck. Fender High Mass Bridge 5 position pick up selector switch, tonally very versatile. 18v active , Vol/treb/mid/bass boost/cut. Weight 9lb 3oz. Fender hard case There is some scuffing on the rear, see photos please. New they were £1600+, replaced by the Elite version which had a different coloured logo! Last one I could find on here was out at £950. Discontinued as they weren't a success for Fender, possibly due to the large & slightly confusing range. Or cos they weren't P or J shaped! Regardless, loved by those that have them and very few 1V HH American Deluxes come up for sale. I need some money, hence sale. Collection from Darlington, talk about a meet up or organise & pay for your own courier. Feedback linked below, thanks for looking, Karl.

This has been on hold for a couple of weeks but surprise, buyer seems awol. Now back up for sale/trade. You know what it is. Bass comes with basic Ritter gigbag NOT the hard case seen in back of photos. THE SUNBURST VERSION was showing as discontinued at one of the main retailers. Neither version shows as available on Fender's site, so possibly both versions discontinued or revamped, as pre orders for next March seem to be available, at £1400. I guess all will be revealed at NAMM. I will trade for a maple boarded USA Precision, 2006 onwards, with a little cash your way. Please note the £700 is a cash price & they usually go for a little more. 2010 weighs 8lb 4oz, 2nd run. Super playing bass. I have a box & bubble wrap, please feel free to organise & pay for your own courier. Will meet up 50 miles or so of Darlington at no extra charge. Feedback linked below. Karl.

Certainly is. There are 2 folk on FB who are " buying" , one of them this, the other my Road Worn Jazz. If I live long enough for either of them to pony up, the other bass will be kept., & sod the one who gets round to it last!

Tough it out. They were going for £800 or more not so long back. £700 is a relative bargain. I've withdrawn my Jazz, it'll go back up in March at £800.

They'll all be sorry they missed this Ian, when the new stuff comes in at £1400 next March.

Bass withdrawn Popped up on my newsfeed on FB last night, GAK Road Worn Sunburst discontinued. Another site had Road Worn Sunburst, pre-order for March, £1400, with Pau Ferro board. https://www.gak.co.uk/en/fender-road-worn-60s-jazz-bass-3-colour-sunburst-rosewood/19359?fbclid=IwAR3O2Fvmy8L5MeT1-iLZc81KAOxn0TNsHDfAjv18uYPO5WVyLiI4tJSgFAs

Coming to a Maggie's Bank near you in the not too distant future 😐

Yup, good bass, shame they don;t do maple boards. Or perhaps they might ?

Indeed, very good, rather well specced basses. Shame they never did them with maple boards.

@ash I'd found this before, but didn't have time to look last night mate. The REVIEW on this link is very interesting imo https://www.guitar-list.com/fender/bass-guitars/fender-jazz-bass-one-piece-pickguard-cbs-models-1983-84

Very rare 83, these are seriously under valued imo, mainly because so few folks know about them. The AVRI's from this year are now often changing hands at just over £2k.
