Bass is the place Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) Up for sale is my Shuker Jazz 5 Sting. I bought this a few months back from Hamster. Sadly, as nice as this bass is, I need to sell it simply because I need the cash…. so no trades please. This is the J Elite model, top of the range with a seven piece bolt on neck. See specs on Shuker website [url="http://www.shukerguitars.co.uk/jspec.htm"]http://www.shukergui...co.uk/jspec.htm[/url] This instrument plays and sounds as you would expect a premium custom instrument to. It has 24 frets, weighs around 3.75kg on my inaccurate bathroom scales, but I consider it nice and light for a 5 string. String spacing at the nut between strings is: 10.5mm String spacing at the bridge between strings: 18.5mm Scale length is 35 inches The Body is Ash with a flame maple top, Rosewood board, maple neck with Wenge laminates (I think?) Bartolini Pickups, and a East J Retro Deluxe active/ Passive circuit. [url="http://www.east-uk.com/"]http://www.east-uk.com/[/url] for details. Stings are used but have plenty of life left in them Condition is good, apart from a small ding the size of a match head on the upper edge (see pic) apart from that just few minor scratches to the rear of the body and some scuffs at the tip of the head stock all can be buffed out easily. Neck p-up cover has some string marks on it. [s]I’m looking for £750, which is what I paid for it.[/s] Price drop to £700 I'm based in Macclesfield Cheshire.

[/quote] Yeah you're right i forgot to mention the scale length. Thanks. Scale is 35 inches, I'd say the B sings pretty well equal to the other strings. I've been running the bass in passive mode and the B works well also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
