martthebass Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 (edited) I've had an ad lurking amongst the 'Items Wanted' for a while for a Rick 4003 without luck so I thought I'd go for a sale p/ex with my FSR Fender Jazz. I've had the bass a while but despite me loving the sound of it I'm not really using it in the bands I'm currently playing in. I hate leaving good basses sitting in the case for too long so....... This is a Fender Special Run 2002 US made 75RI Jazz bass in great condition one of about 200 that were made in CAR. If you do a search of these basses on here you'll find they have near legendary status and are considered pretty much custom shop quality. It comes with all the original case candy (with exception of the curly lead); the pup and bridge covers are mint and have never been mounted on the bass. For a straight sale I'm looking at £999. I would prefer a trade for a Rick 4003 in similar condition (i.e. excellent) with the appropriate cash adjustment. For some reason photo uploads don't seem to be working at the moment - I'll attach when this is sorted.

martthebass Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 Forgot to mention, the bass comes with the original G & G case which is in very good condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martthebass Posted February 25, 2013 Author Share Posted February 25, 2013 Hi NGH, it is exactly the same, but not the same bass.....the chrome ware has never been mounted on this one. I believe it originally came from darn sarf. Great photo though.....wish I had the gift! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martthebass Posted March 3, 2013 Author Share Posted March 3, 2013 (edited) Something has caught my eye so I'll offer this at £1050 posted until the window of opportunity closes. Still Would be interested though in a trade of a nice Musicman Ray Classic or Rick 4003 with cash your way......

martthebass Posted March 5, 2013 Author Share Posted March 5, 2013 Need to sort this one way or the other now, so it's up at £1000 FINAL. If it sells good, if not I'll press this awesome Jazz into use and forget about the Rick for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martthebass Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) A straight 9lbs as can best be determined on my digital scales.......not a heavy weight. Overseas shipping ok as long as you arrange the courier. Edited March 11, 2013 by martthebass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martthebass Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 Will give this a little longer before I string it with some flats and put it to work. Looks like the market is full of Fender sellers rather than buyers at the minute so may have to suppress my GAS for a Rick until the next significant birthday.
