Lysdexia Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 (edited) Hi guys - looking to sell for £675 inc delivery and case or, preferred, a trade for a Fender USA Jazz. Or A CIJ one as long as it has block inlays. If a USA Fender, then I'd prefer the Jazz to have S1 as well but that's not essential. Or, as ever, I'm open to suggestions. Let the haggling commence . . . Yep - it's a beauty, plays superbly and is in excellent condition. I'm always happy to travel a wee bitty for those who would rather collect.

LemonCello Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 As usual, the sight of a USA P in this particular colour/condition gives me trouser issues! It's a beaut and at a very fair price - good luck with the sale. LC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysdexia Posted November 19, 2010 Author Share Posted November 19, 2010 And I dunno how else to do this, because I'm happy to do a discount if someone wants both, but I'm also hoping to shift this magnificent Ashdown ABM 300 combo. . On it's own I was looking for £350 as it is in superb nick and functions perfectly, but if someone wants to buy them together I'll knock £100 off the combined price. So, combined at £925, but this would really have to be a collection and as before I don't mind travelling a reasonable distance to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnozzalee Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 I've always wanted a precision or strat like this with a white pickguard and rosewood board similar to Rocco Prestia. Fantastic finish and few buy it! So 2nd hand thats a find indeed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All these hi-key, white background shots are done using the following pro equipment. 1. Snooker table and hanging, overhead light. 2. White bed sheet. 3.... That's it.

4 Strings Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Really good pic, shows that the strings oscillate about their centre (there must be an infinitesimally small spot where there's no actual movement!) Lovely bass, wish I was in a position to make use of a great offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merello Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Beautiful bass - I had a wee twang today and basically it's a typical Fender P-Bass. Solid, resonant and growly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyTravis Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Hate to be the Pedant, but I think this is 'Chrome Red', A little lighter than Candy Apple Red. Still need to get my hands on it...and a gold guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lysdexia Posted November 21, 2010 Author Share Posted November 21, 2010 Additional discount megapow discount offer if the bass and amp are bought as a pair. And collected - can't deliver at this price. I'll sell both for [b]£875![/b] Effectively pricing the amp at a rabidly low £200. Which I am now selling at £275 individually (collected) as it's got to go. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the bass is in excellent condition - my goal is to make sure it's seen at it's very best. 1. Clean the guitar as best I can - bloody obvious! 2. Plain, clear background so as the subject is not distracted from. In this instance a simple white bedsheet did the job. 3. Lots of light! For this, I put the sheet on a snooker table and used the overhead lights we all know so well. And of course the plain white sheet is very reflective for light so that helps fill the immediate, ambient space. 4. A pro-quality, fast lens. I used a fast f/2.8 24-70mm on this and that helps provide the lovely, shallow depth of focus. Nice blurry bits contrasting with the sharp focus areas if the tech stuff is not helpful. 5. A grey-card to try as best I can to make sure the white balance/colour is accurate and consistent. 6. Manfrotto tripod and Manfrotto geared head with the camera on a timing delay so I'm not even touching it for guaranteed sharp focus. That's pretty much it and, for me at least, a labour of love. And thanks for the compliments as it's good to hear what I'm trying to do is working. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you could be right and it wouldn't be the first time I've been wrong. Thanks either way. Edited November 21, 2010 by Lysdexia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
