Up for grabs is my 1999 USA made standard Jazz V string bass. I have developed tendonitis in my first finger and I am switching to 4 string. In consequence this bass does not get used like it should.

It is in very good condition and only has one minor ding on the bottom of the body (see the individual pic). Generally its good to go !

It has been raced but never rallied and comes in a non Fender tweed case.

This is a great bass which I bought in the USA and I have been the only owner. What sets this apart is that it has a pair of stock output lindy fralin pickups in it - click on the link to check them out -  https://www.fralinpickups.com/product/5-string-jazz-bass/

I also installed a John East J-RETRO preamp http://www.east-uk.com/index.php/all-products/j-retro-01.html

which is a simple, neat and brilliant upgrade.

These items together give great tone and control and today you would spend over £300 for these alone.

The bass plays extremely well and were it not for my physical imperfection would not be going anywhere.

I am based not far from Heathrow so can meet up or ship

would consider a good older 4string Jazz in trade/ trade + cash

I just sent mine back.
Used at home when it arrived and I was too frequently getting the blueLED flickering which indicates dropping of the link between Tx and Rx
Not prepared to even try it out live.
As they were less than 30cm apart I was not pleased !

SOLD
Up for sale is my treasured CR5M Which retails new for £2200. I have owned it from new for 6 years. It has the great sounding Piezo and magnetic pickups and is a full scale EUB that makes wonderful big sound.

I am selling it as I am about to spend serious money and as this is just not used as much it has to go to help fund it. As always with these things I will probably regret this at some point but unless I win the lottery then needs must.

It comes complete with the soft gig bag which is in great condition and the original form chrome stand which is a bit more substantial than the one offered these days. Also included is the shoulder strap for it if you want to wander around with it !

The bass itself is in good condition but it does has a few minor dings as a result of some drunken arse at a gig and these are all detailed in the pics and do not really detract from the visual apparence.

It is strung with a set of tomastic spiracores.

Is a full description and far more detailed than I could do.

And this link [url="https://www.dropbox.com/sh/m0lytecg4le7may/1fWG0fto0Q"]https://www.dropbox....7may/1fWG0fto0Q[/url] is to pics

I am in S West London and I'd rather not ship but will at your cost.

Any questions get in touch.

Well the Aurora's been on for a few gigs now and have to say I think I prefer the DR Neon. The colour is great but its already starting to wear at the (finger) plucking end and that is sooner than the DR. The colour wear is not dreadful but is noticeable.I have done 5 gigs and two rehearsals with them which is why i noticed what i think is early wear.

I went for the pale blue string which does look good although, obviously, does not pop as much as DR NEON. I did get stung for customs duty on them and therefore has to pay another £12 on them so it also made them a bit more expensive.

As to feel, they are good, smooth and very playable. I like the string although the tone is different to DR Neon, which if pushed I'd say I prefer. For me they feel a little less 'alive'. If only DR did theirs in blue I would pick them every time.

This weekend would work email me at [email protected]

Live near Kingston on Thames

Could be in for this cash or maybe a BB1100S trade and cash. As you are in Birmingham may take a bit of scheduling to arrange a trip. I guess weekends only?

Looking to trade but will take a reasonable offer for this immaculate EP53 in blueburst finish.(around £[s]1000[/s][color=#ff0000][b]700[/b][/color])
[s]Maple neck and purpleheart fretboard its in an immaculate condition and little played - my NS Design gets most attention and which is why it's time for a change. The purpleheart is really special looking and no longer an option and i have only ever used flatwounds so no marks on the fretboard.

It has a maple top which looks great and the multi-voice passive electronics and Kent Armstrong pickups. [url="http://www.usmasters.com/basselectronicswht.htm"]http://www.usmasters...ctronicswht.htm[/url]

This is a beautifully built bass that is about 6 years old and who would not want a long purple length !

Location SW London[/s]

Sold to to Urban Bassman - Greta guy to deal with

Bit of a bump .... needs to go

Well up for sale to fund other things is my trusted AB1 and because I am getting a bit older and my fingers stiffer! It's in great condition and I have owned this from new. Had an Aguilar OBP1 pre amp fitted so that gives it two band active Bass and treble.

If you are reading this then you know what a Dingwall is with its fanned frets etc.

This bass is about 5 years old

It is everything that Dingwalls are and apart from the Aguilar it's stock and in very good condition. Comes with the almost pristine Dingwall supplied flight case and a spare set of strings, and if I can find them I think I have another set somewhere too!

In terms of marks there are no chips but a couple of very small dents that you would expect from it being a used. bass

Neck is perfect
[attachment=38221:P1000616.JPG]
The only real marks are some string wear on the pickups (see the picture)
[attachment=38223:P1000614.JPG]

Am located S West London and would prefer a pickup or meet but would be willing to ship at your cost.

So what am I selling for?

Well new these sell for 1700 or so

So I think this is a bargain at 1300 with the OBP1 which turns it into an ABII(nearly!)

Any questions let me know.
