I played this bass while it was in Loz' possesion, and had I not just bought a bass from him, i'd be trying to get the readies for this.
What a superb instrument. -
ebay it seems for this beauty,

-
eBay as of Sunday.
Need to pay for the CS Jazz i've just acquired...
Really do not want to sell this, took far too long to find one. -
I'd own this.
The Epi Jack Casady is based upon this model, and i loved mine when i had it.
£2400 short, as luck would have it. -
It's not a Cirrus, it's a DynaBass.
They were about £200 at the turn of the millenium, passive nice bass, for a cheapo.
Barky bridge pickups... -
First Bass Owned:
Yamaha BB300 (Still Got This).
'Go To' Bass:
Fender Custom Shop Jazz Bass 64 Relic, it's just arrived, and i'm refusing to let it out of my sight...this will be my main bass from now on in.
'Your' Bass:
Squier SQ Precision Bass, modded with J Pickup in the Bridge position, BadAss II etc. Just sounds like me, nice 27 Year Old Jap Squier. -

sound clip...

too much, as in too much to take in??
It's a lovely thing, re. The PM about sound samples, i'll try and sort something over the weekend. Everything i have with it on is full band recordings. -
Dots, just for Tom...
And the impossible to photograph 'wear' on the board...
I have these in higher resolution, very happy to send them to personal e-mails.
I'm in meetings all tomorrow, but will answer questions on lunch break and after end of working day.
Hope these help.

The 424's are fantastic basses, not seen a fiver yet, but i'm a huge fan of the thinking on the entire new crop of BB's.
Wish I had the dough for a 2024x -
Photo uploader's being slow, even though i've downscaled the pics.
Grrr.
If you need the photos i'll email them over to you.
Wear is so fine it's impossible to photograph (clear poly over maple anyone?) It's so untraceable I had to draw an arrow in photoshop to get it.
If you switched to flats, it'd probably last longer than you. If you kept nickel light gauge and the current action, you'll get years of fun out of it.
It hasn't changed or degraded in the 12/18 months i've owned it.
It took me 2 years, a USA Strat and a good chunk of dosh to get my hands on this, you won't see many of these reissues knocking about, I found 3 on my journey, one in Japan, one 'sold' by a grey market CIJ/MIJ Fender dealer, and this one.
PM Me, if you want further info.
Will try again later.

felt my phone going off in the queue in tescos, ha!
Any further questions i'll answer at length later when i'm home.
Thanks guys! -
poly lacquered fingeroard from factory, very vert fine hazing if anything, action is too low to have to 'dig in', and theyre nickel 40/100's so it's tidy.
-
Hi Tom there are side dots 'on' the note, it's really easy to get to grips with it.
Will take photos later when i'm home from work.

Some more pics...

Bump,
Things sorted for Jazz, new home by the weekend.
This Fretless is honestly well worth a try, such an interesting bass, and none of the searching for a 'Good One' like i did with the original 70's ones when I almost gave up trying to find this reissue.
Think the dream Jazz has gone now, but needs must, bills to pay...
-
my god...
-
Forgot to add, i'm looking for an upgrade P/J Pickup set EMG/S.Dunc/Norstrand etc.
So if you happen to have a set knocking around, and like the fretless, i'd be able to accept as a partial trade.
Thanks

Hi guys,
Jazz Bass is more or less sold pending me getting the Pickguard/Pickups packed up with the bass.
Fretless is mega, may be able to post a sound clip if I can get to my better broadband later (Mum and Dad's AOL is not doing itself any favours).
But, any questions, please PM me, i'll do my best, will be home later to respond. -
I think the rules of the for sale forum say you must state a price.
I'm interested but don't want to offend you with a lowball offer, not do myself out money just to be polite.
Lovely thing either way. -
Yeah, i'm in love, how much are you selling it for?
-
Ha, Stanley Clarke loved his gift so much, it's being flogged.
-
It's not like the one in the photo. No press image as of yet.
It's Matt Black, no pickguard, looks odd. I got excited for 10 secons, and then saw it.
The Rumour mill states there will be the 'LP Junior DC Bass' Like the original EB-0 but with an additional Bridge Pickup, so an SG reissue bass with an LP body Shape. Exciting.
And some new Les Paul Standard Basses with larger bodies - They did a buckethead signature guitar with a 10% larger body, the guitar was mental, but i can see it working for the bass, Gold Top, Ebony and Heritage Cherry burst.
These are all just pencilled in at the moment, and may never come to light, they were doing a System of a Down Thunderbird about 2 years ago, but it never made it to production although they showed it at NAMM.
Looking forward to the Les Pauls and that Junior.
Hope they actually do them!

I'd love to keep it, but a very patient fellow BC'er will appreciate the £550 towards the Custom Shop Jazz i've taken off his hands.
It's going on the bay in the next day or two, just got to retake a few phots.
Reserve will be £550, so please give me a shout if any BC'er want it, and i'll pull it, or not put it on at all!
Played it earlier, still in love with it! But, needs must.
