I have for sale my 1984 Tokai Jazz Sound (JB50) in Red (Candy Apple I think) with Matching Headstock. This is a '62 reissue' and therefore has a threaded saddle bridge. This is an extremely nice Jazz Bass built in Japan from an era when the Tokai was an exact copy of the Fender Jazz in that the headstock is the same as a Fender as opposed to the more modern Tokai offering. A rather nice touch is the colour-coded matching headstock which in my opinion sets off the bass very nicely. This bass is all original and in superb condition for a 33 year old instrument. It is difficult to find any marks on this bass. There are one or two very small marks which cannot really be photographed. I only mention them for the sake of transparency. The bass has had a pro setup by Graeme Mennie of Kinellar Guitars and is currently strung with a new set of Thomastik Flatwounds. The bass will come in a generic hardcase. One corner of the case has a slight crack in it (see photo). UPDATE: The crack has since been repaired with superglue and boot polish. The bass will be well packed in its case and cardboard box. The asking price includes delivery to the UK. I am not looking for any trades although I might just entertain a Fender Precision if the price and type is right.

Nice to see Robert Cray's bass player using a Squier VM Jazz.

Bought rack ears for my Markbass LM2 from Stuart. Nice pleasant transaction the way it should be. Stuart is a gent!

I thought that Dayme Arocena and her band were sheer class.

I went to my local vinyl emporium in Aberdeen yesterday. 'Spin' has been open for a few months now and is just marvellous. A great bonus is the cafe/restaurant which is part of the whole place. It is just such a nice place to go and spend some time.

I have found that some dealers are giving a pretty good price on trade-ins. Whereas private deals very often are disappointing with people offering silly money for good instruments.

The man's a legend. As well as all his R&B, soul stuff he is also the only keyboard player to have played with both the Beatles and the Rolling Stones.

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1490181116' post='3262886'] Not my experience at all. The MiJ instruments continue to be excellent. The others are no better or worse than any other budget Korean or Chinese instruments. [/quote] Apologies. I do agree with BigRed on this. I should have said that I was referring to the MIJ instruments.

I just acquired a 1984 Jazz Sound from Bass Direct and it is marvellous. The Tokai stuff is consistently very fine up to the present day.

Really need a description of this bass. Is it Fender? Origins of body and neck? What are the pickups? Make of hardware? etc, etc. If you want to sell you have to put in the effort! -
Did these not originally come with a white pickguard and white pickup cover?

I have a 1984 Tokai Jazz Sound and it is a marvellous instrument. There is a very nice 1981 Greco Precision over on 'Classic and Cool Guitars' just now. This is the site that Mark the Limelight guy operates. He is a great guy to deal with and a proper gent. Tell him Hutton sent you! 😃 Here's the link: http://classicandcoolguitars.co.uk/basses-for-sale/

Saw the olive yesterday on a strat at my local guitar emporium. Rather liked it!

Love that show.

Another Amen! -
I have two of the high end Cort basses and they are marvellous. Excellent build quality, components, and playability. It's all good.

I don't have the technical knowledge to comment on this but I was thinking that if Mariah Carey could have performed she would have as she has been doing just that for a long time now. The fact that she had to abort the performance would suggest to me that things were well out of her control. She would surely know that there would be no point in continuing and producing a performance that she would later regret. An unfortunate set of circumstances here which led to her doing the only sensible thing.

That awful feeling when you let some gear go.!!

[quote name='gelfin' timestamp='1483565885' post='3208388'] A few years ago I was made redundant just as my daughters wedding was coming up. I had to sell my Ric CS. [url="http://s970.photobucket.com/user/gelfin5959/media/CS4.jpg.html"][/url] The guy who bought it promised that I would have first refusal if he ever sold it. He offered it back at twice the price I sold it. [/quote] What a complete and utter shi*e. -
Is there a particular reason why the original case is not included in the sale? With the bass being a 2016 model I would have thought the case would still be around.

Thanks man.
