I have had this bass for a while. It was my "just in case" bass. I've played it now and again in the bedroom, but no more. I don't see that changing, and since i have seen another bass i do like, this will help fund that. This is a lovely bass. Looks great, and plays fantastic.

Maybe someone else will be able to tell more from it? [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20160225_185636841.jpg.html"][/url] It's in great condition [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20160225_185613860.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20160225_185626790.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20160225_185527871.jpg.html"][/url] It's a excellent bass, at a excellent price, and a great way to "dip your toes" into the world of fretless without spending a tonne. Trials are always welcomed. I will post or courier, but it will be at the buyers risk and expense. Any questions are welcomed

Surprised to see these. I tried them up at Bass Gear and they are brilliant. I just opted for the S112s. Absolute ridiculous price too. Cracking bit of kit for someone. GLWTS but i dont think you'll need it

Now on hold.....

Thanks everyone

Ok i can confirm there is no routing under the scratchplate: [URL=http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20160223_170736.jpg.html][IMG]http://i674.photobucket.com/albums/vv109/FuNkShUi/Mobile%20Uploads/20160223_170736.jpg[/IMG][/URL] It has a 40mm neck when i measured. I was surprised at that, because it feels thinner. But i'm guessing because it isn't very thick, thats why it appears this way. It is all original as far as i can tell. Again, i don't claim to be a Fender/Squier expert so i'll happily take someones advice on this. I cant tell the weight for you yet as our bathroom scales are broken. But im sure Dunc will agree, it's lightweight!! I'll get a measurement as soon as i can

[quote name='itsmedunc' timestamp='1456239972' post='2986928'] Ha! Thought I recognised it. It's a god example. I'm sure that under the plate there's no routing. Best have a look but I'm quite sure you could play it naked. [/quote] I'll take a look and post a pic for those who have asked

Ive had a couple of questions via PM so i'll put the answers here: A few have asked about the serial number. It is O015717 so this dates it '93 - '94. Bassistclem - it is under the logo, but it's very faded. Don't have an explanation for that, it was like this when i got the bass. It doesn't come with a gig bag. I have very good material for safe packaging though. Check my feedback if in doubt. Not sure on the exact weight, i plan on weighing it when i get in from work, i'll amend the OP then. I'll double check the nut width then too, but i think i remember it being 38mm yes. I have also been asked about the routing under the scratchplate.... i'll look at this after work too. Dunc, yeh this is your old bass. I did debate referencing your old post saying it was the closest thing that guy had played to his '64, but he didn't say it to me, so didn't feel i should. Glad you have chipped in with that info though

Thanks Allighatt0r. I didnt want to sell, but we operate on the 1 in, 1 out rule so this is the one that has to go. Great bass for someone at a great price.

Didnt have any plans to sell this bass as i feel it's worth a lot more than it's price, but another has come up for sale that i'd really like to try. So this goes to fund that. Here it is: [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20160222_190929.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20160222_190942.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20160222_191012.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20160222_191022.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20160222_191030.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20160222_191043.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s674.photobucket.com/user/FuNkShUi/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20160222_191116.jpg.html"][/url] This is a Squier Silver Series Jazz bass, built in Japan. It's played a fair few gigs with me, and been brilliant. It's lightweight, and strung with flats it sits beautifully in the mix, rather than on top of it. It does have some playing wear, and i've shown that as best i can in the photos. I believe it is an early 90s model, but happy to be corrected on that. These basses are highly regarded round these parts, and i totally agree. Don't think there are many better at this pricepoint. All trials welcomed. I can courier the bass, but it will be at buyers expense and risk. Thanks for looking.

Anywhere near Bristol and i'll have it
