Great price but unfortunately I don't do pick guards and can't play like Mr Miller!!

Yup, very nice and a good F/S thread, and that J Retro looks the dogs on this

Bump again, is this priced too high or just slow market?

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Just out of interest does it have any tooling holes underneath the pickguard and where is the battery kept? It is one of the better bitsas I've seen to be honest, very nice[/font][/color]

Hi there, as per forum rules you need to add a trade value, sounds nice though and I hope you make a quick deal

Yup, very nice bump!!

Man that is one sweet jazz you have there, are you sure you wanna sell it type bump!!

[b]Now sold, please remove this post thanks.[/b]

[b]Temporarily withdrawn folks, sorry![/b] [b]Potential buyer has gone quiet so now back up for grabs [/b] Hi folks, I know it's a quick turnaround but after playing etc this beauty is wasted on me a bit and at heart I'm a 4 string jazzer. It's a Jon Shuker ([url="http://www.shukerguitars.co.uk/"]http://www.shukerguitars.co.uk/[/url]) J 5 with Bartolinis and a John East U-Retro 01 Deluxe preamp ([url="http://www.east-uk.com/"]http://www.east-uk.com/[/url]) and has a 35 inch scale, this makes the B string ring like a bell!! It weighs about 9.4 Ibs and is well balanced on a strap, All very nice and very well made stuff. I've borrowed the snaps from Ollie (hope you don't mind bud) [attachment=122522:Shuker 5.jpg] [attachment=122523:Shuker 4.jpg] [attachment=122524:Shuker 3.jpg] [attachment=122525:Shuker 2.jpg] [attachment=122526:Shuker 1.jpg] Now as I'd want everybody to be happy it's collection only, also it avoids any potential damage to this very nice British made bass. There are a few marks here and there so it is definitely in a used condition. [b]I've taken this bass to Jon Shuker since this post originally went up and he has done the following:[/b] [b]1. Replaced the jack socket[/b] [b]2. Earthed the electronics[/b] [b]3. Reworked the bridge saddles and nut to lower the action, much lower now![/b] [b]4. Set up and fret polish[/b] [b]The cost of this work being carried out by Jon is reflected in the new asking price of £725 collected (or £750 with a SKB foam hardcase)[/b] Also when speaking to Jon about the bass he told me that this was his first 5 string jazz that he made using this body shape, it's about 10 years old or so and it didn't originally come with the John East preamp or Barts installed. He did however route the battery box for it at a later date! Any trial welcome and I'm based in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire. NB. Over Christmas I'll be in Reigate, Surrey for a week so could deal from there if need be

Badass Jazz there, dig the blocks with lack of frets. Reminds me of [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGdiE-Ssfx4[/media], anyhow have a fellow jazz fan bump on me

Nice jazz combo bump

I'll have it please!

If you ever want to sell it I might be interested

Yes it is , cheers Craig and hope you like the jazz! However as I have never played a 6 properly I'll have to see how I get on with one, if I can't do 6 strings it'll be back on here sooner than you can say 'Alan Carrot has too many strings!!'
