Mike Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Not sure if I have any suitable trade bait but do you have a price in mind for a straight sale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnozzalee Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 If my guitar can whoop a Gibson, i wouldn't doubt for a second that this would top a pre-2008 Fender easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the nicest JB I've ever played, I love 60' pickup spacing, alder and rosewood. Lot of "mojo", comparable with MIJ Fenders without any problem, for much better price. I changed original pickups to SD SJB-1, which was a great upgrade, imo. I sold her to fund some other stuff, but missed her so much I had to bought AV62 jazz, which has the same character.
