GreeneKing Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 (edited) I thought I'd have another go at offering my Jazz up for grabs. I bought this bass in November last year and it has only been played for about 30 minutes. I love the bass but I could do with parting with a couple to help with Uni finance and this bass is probably the most saleable. To start off with, the pre-amp failed and has been replaced professionally and transparently by Thomann. It has no 'quality issues' at all. It's in Butterscotch blonde and the spec's are below. The top of the headstock has had a slight biff as per the photos and no it wasn't me "[b]Our upgraded American Deluxe Jazz Bass Ash guitar captures the spirit of Fender innovation with its three-band active EQ, pair of Samarium Cobalt Noiseless Jazz Bass pickups and 18-volt power supply. This gorgeous ash-body bass has a modern C-shaped, graphite-reinforced maple neck with a contoured heel (for easy access to upper frets), five-bolt neck plate, maple or rosewood rolled-edge fingerboard, abalone dot inlays and highly detailed nut and fret work. Other features include chrome hardware, deluxe chrome-plated steel bridge plate (string-through-body or top-load) with nickel-plated brass saddles, and Fender/Schaller Deluxe Lite-Bass tuning machines.

GreeneKing Posted June 12, 2008 Author Share Posted June 12, 2008 I would consider trades for this bass, particularly an early 90's NT Thumb 4 or 5 Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreeneKing Posted June 24, 2008 Author Share Posted June 24, 2008 (edited) Right, that's the Jazz now down to £750 plus P&P. These are £1300 new (more MRP) and this really is a bargain. I need to sell to retrospectively fund my new Thumb. It's also a cracking bass in nearly new condition with all case candy. Save a lot of dosh, you could probably sell it on for more when the market picks up Peter Edited June 24, 2008 by GreeneKing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 This is a superb bass, in new condition. I've played it, and was knocked out, a bloody bargain at this price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
