mcnach Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 (edited) Great condition, light use, it still has the plastic sheet protecting the pickguard... It plays well, sounds good... but my experiment with P-bass can be considered over as this bass has been at home doing nothing wile I play my OLPs, Stingray and Jazz all the time. I never liked the P-bass sound much... and I guess my taste hasn't changed! It's a funny colour, it's very very dark blue... it sometimes looks almost black, but under very bright light (like a flash) it looks blue/violet. I liked that, with the black pickguard and very dark rosewood fingerboard I think it looks great. On the picture of the body, I played with the colour/brightness to bring the hue of the blue up, but "in person" it looks darker than that. Strings have been on for a few months, but due to little or no use they still have a lot of life on them, being pretty bright. I'm asking for £65 plus delivery (about £15 with ParcelForce, I believe... I'd have to check). Or you can collect from Edinburgh. I've read that these are made in the same factory as SX, and I can see the similarity, but personally I do not know if this is true.

I played a Deacon Jazz for a few years & it was indestructible! I would buy this if I had the dosh, but I'm selling my own stuff here. Good luck. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked the colour, but always thought they might be a bit rubbish. But looking at some others peoples comments I might have been a bit wrong. Basically I'm just looking for a cheap bass to learn on, but not rubbish, good enough to take me to intermediate. Do you reckon a Jim Deacon would do the job?
