Relisting this as, try as I might, I am not A Jazz Bass Guy. Original thread below, the only thing that’s changed since May is the bass is now wearing a nicely worn in set of La Bella IMA Super Polished strings. I’m in the market for a JMJ Mustang so would be interested in a trade involving one of those (plus cash adjustment on my end). Collection from Haywards Heath preferred, or I’d be happy to meet within 30 miles or so.

I’ve gone back to using a head and cab, so my Markbass combo is up for grabs. It’s a great amp, deceptively loud for its size and in good condition (although the handle is looking a bit worse for wear). Looking for £425 collected from Haywards Heath, or I’d be happy to meet halfway within a reasonable distance. Better photos, proof of ownership etc to come but here are some for starters.

Still available 🙂

Still on hold for now, I’ll update the listing if anything changes.

Serial number dates it to 2015, I don’t have an accurate weight but it feels a touch lighter than my Sterling, which is 4.2kg. Cheers Steve, are you sure you don’t need a backup? 😉

It is 🙂

Picked this up off eBay a couple of months ago because I fancied a Jazz - turns out I just don’t get on with them! In as good condition as a factory road worn instrument can be, professionally set up with medium gauge D’Addario nickel roundwounds and Fender gig bag included. Collection from Haywards Heath preferred, but I’m willing to travel for a meet up within reason. Would entertain trades for a Precision of similar value, or a Vintera II/JMJ Mustang. Better photos to come if/when the sun comes out.

Willing to accept near offers on this if you’re able to collect - also open to trade offers on basses not listed above 🙂

If you’d asked me before I’d paid the deposit on one, I definitely would have considered it! 😂

Kev has pretty much nailed it - a couple of tweaks to the action and pickup height, plus the fact that I’m primarily playing with a pick these days, led to me restoring the bass to its original look and I agree it’s far more aesthetically pleasing!

Price drop to £1300 Took me years to get hold of one of these and I never thought I’d let it go, but unfortunately we need a new boiler so here goes! Despite the boiler situation, I will entertain trades involving a Precision of equivalent (or lower) value, or a full size StingRay Special. Could also be tempted by an offer involving a JMJ/Vintera II Mustang. The bass is in excellent condition, with a couple of minor blemishes (too small to photograph) and only one real imperfection in the form of a cracked neck plate. Weight is around 3.5kg. La Bella 760FS strings fitted currently, they’re lightly played in but still pretty fresh. Original hard case and tools (allen keys, truss rod adjustment) included. Collection from Haywards Heath, West Sussex preferred, but I would be happy to deliver or meet within a reasonable distance. Any questions, requests for additional photos etc, just let me know!

Reluctantly relisting my 2001 EBMM Sterling in long discontinued and much loved honeyburst with rosewood fretboard. Will entertain trades involving a Precision/Jazz of equivalent (or lower) value. Could also be tempted by an offer involving a JMJ/Vintera II Mustang. The bass is in great condition for its age, though there are some scuffs and marks commensurate with two decades of use, and it weighs in at 4.2kg. Original white pickguard reinstalled and electrical tape removed since the majority of these photos were taken (see above), up-to-date photos to follow shortly. Original hard case included which, admittedly, is in less good condition than the bass itself (see photo of missing clasp) but still provides adequate protection. Collection from Haywards Heath, West Sussex preferred, but I would be happy to deliver or meet within a reasonable distance. Any questions, requests for additional photos etc, just let me know!

All except the first run (Raspberry Pearl and Ultra Marine Blue). Sorely tempted by this, I’m always on the lookout for a second one and I live perilously close…
