Philly Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 (edited) Hi All I have an Iceni zoot chaser bass which I have recently aquired, but my circumstances have changed and I need to raise a bit of cash and create some space, so am putting it up for sale. I am not 100% sure on the specs, but I believe the below review sounds like an almost identical bass. [url="http://www.harmonycentral.com/products/105360"]http://www.harmonyce...products/105360[/url] [i]Quote[/i] Made in Essex,24 frets, 4 strings. Two band active EQ with low pass switch, volume and pick-up blend. Two pick-ups - Seymour Duncan Basslines SJB-2N Jazz at neck and Seymour Duncan Basslines SMB-4D Musicman at bridge.Body is made of one piece swamp ash with gloss black finish. Neck is bolt on and made of seven pieces of bubinga and maple,with a rosewood fingerboard. Body style is modern yet traditional if you know what I mean - nothing too alien looking and slightly familiar. Headstock is small and well recessed with two tuners either side and a string tree for correct tension. Gotoh tuners and an Iceni Sustain bridge. Neck is 34" scale a little broader than a Jazz bass, but much thinner - sort of between a Rickenbacker and a Jazz Bass and fast, with excellent fretwork (it should be it being handmade). [i]Unquote[/i] I would class it as good condition, it has some buckle rash on the back and some dings and scratches on it but nothing major. Looking for £400. Only trades I might consider would be for something cheaper + cash perhaps a squier classic vibe jazz or precision maybe a 5 string.

TheGreek Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Shocked by the lack of interest!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ou7shined Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 I don't get the whole lack of love for Zoots in general on here. These are very high quality basses. One day Basschat will wake up to them and they will become highly sought after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bass Culture Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 These were Bass of the Year in one of the bass magazines just a few years back! I'm probably shooting myself int he foot here as I've presently got my own Zoot up for sale but this has got to be a steal at this price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
