mart3442 Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 (edited) [u][b]SOLD****CIJ Circa 2002-4 Fender Geddy Lee signature Jazz Bass.[/b] [b]SOLD*****[/b][/u] [b]All original, in used condition, has marks and scrapes. Bought by myself from Chicago Music Exchange in 2011, this was my touring Bass in the 'States, (its actually the Bass in my avatar). Lovely skinny neck with super low action, usual Jazz trademarks with that wiry, growly tone. Looking for around £450, may be tempted to trade for something that stirs my interest. Based outside Liverpool, happy to post at buyers expense.[/b] [b]I have extra pics showing marks on the body that I am unable to upload here. PM your email and I'll send them to anyone interested. Cheers.[/b] Edited January 20, 2014 by mart3442
odysseus Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 I'm interested. Can you give me a price that includes postage please, mate?
mart3442 Posted January 18, 2014 Author Posted January 18, 2014 Hi, whearabouts are you? I can get an accurate quote then. Based on past experience, postage will be around £20-30, I need to see if I have any kind of a case for it. The original hardcase is at my friends house in the usa. Cheers.
odysseus Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 (edited) I'm in Cornwall, mate. Where men are men and sheep are nervous! I'll take it. Been after a Jap Ged for a while. A quick look at a pic to make sure would be cool though. Edited January 18, 2014 by odysseus

Buy it there? I like that idea! This is a total bargain bass btw! [/quote] Heres the story: I have a genuine 1971 Jazz in the Geddy spec. At the time, it was in pieces and in need of a respray. We had a bit of downtime and went to the shop for a mooch. They had a 72 in the same spec as mine. I played it through a couple of the amps they had set up. A salesman appeared and came out with some line like: "Great tone, its a combination of that Bass and the amp" (think it was an SVT). I got all uppity and reminded him that tone is also in the players hands. To prove my point, I took the Geddy off the wall and a/b'd it with the '72. Very close in tone and the Geddy felt and played better. The '72 was $4500, the Geddy was $700. It was a no brainer. Getting it home was easy: Took the neck off then put the lot in a folded over gigbag which I took on as hand luggage. I've brought a stack of basses to and from from the states, never been stopped or questioned.... Edited January 19, 2014 by mart3442
