Old Horse Murphy Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 (edited) Due to ongoing work commitments I'm not gigging as frequently as I was, so am reluctantly putting my Fender Custom Shop New Old Stock 64 Jazz Bass (plus case, all the Candy, certificate and lifetime warranty with Fender Custom Shop). It's in a wonderful Sea Foam Green (my favourite colour!) This bass is superb and is easily one of the best basses I've had the pleasure in playing. It weighs approx 8.5lbs and apart from a few very small pin-prick size dings (not through the paint) it's in wonderful condition. It also has Abigail Ybarra hand wound pickups which sound like nothing else on this earth! It comes with the original white pickguard plus a Fender 62 Reissue Tortoise Shell pickguard too. The NOS range are basically Custom Shop Basses made exactly the way they were back in the day (same paint, construction techniques, materials etc). The body is Alder. This cost me £2,300 about 6 months ago, so I am looking for £1,700 for this. I am not looking for trades, but would consider something like a Musicman SR5 or SR4 Unlined Fretless in p/ex but would look to clear a minimum of £1,000 cash too. Here are some pics. I'll take more later. Thanks for looking. Edited March 17, 2013 by Old Horse Murphy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Horse Murphy Posted February 18, 2013 Author Share Posted February 18, 2013 Thanks for the comment guys. This absolutely has to go now as I've just invested in something rather expensive in Fiesta Red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
