Lysdexia Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 (edited) Hi guys - only had this for about a week and I like it, but I'm still hankering after an everyday jazz. I stuck an ad in the wanted section to that effect and I've had a few offers, two of which are simmering and may yet come to fruition. On a less important note, but a valid point nonetheless, at 50 I can't stop thinking this makes me look like an even stupider old twat clinging to his youth by every means available. So, if I sell it I'd like back the £395 it owes me and that cash would go towards a jazz. Or - preferred - a trade for a jazz with cash either way. I'm in no mad rush as this bass is not only sounding the bollocks and is in great condition, it also plays beautifully thanks to the fab setup provided by TOM1946 who had it before me. He could also confirm I'm not making a single penny on this should any of the site communists be concerned we are rushing headfirst into a cesspit of capitalism.

tom1946 Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 (edited) This IS a remarkable Jag, I also earthed the cavities so there is no hum at all. It really does stand at £395 Edited November 30, 2010 by tom1946 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickeyboro Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 I'm worried (hijacking the thread slightly) – I'm 55 and yesterday got a metallic blue 50s CV Precision from Bumnote...who may be even more 'mature' than me. What are the rules? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul S Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 Pose-wise Jaguars are fine into your 50s, I reckon. T-Birds are stretching it though... Nice basses, still in love with my stealth one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One proviso - Tom1946 also attends and gives a demo/tips on setting up a bass. i've paid for pro-setup jobs that aren't close to the wonderful work he's done with this jaguar.
