[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]It was imported and recieved it in Jan 2011. [/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Excellent condition and all original parts and Japanese certificates. I just fitted a set of active EMG J's, sounds great . . . nails the Alex Al Jazz tone. No knobs on the vol / tone just now as the originals [/font][/color][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#282828]don't fit on the EMG's. Will put the original wiring etc in with the bass.[/color][/font] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Comes with both sets of pickups, covers and a fender gig bag. [s]SOLD[/s].

Conan Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 (edited) Careful with the bumps mate - only allowed every 36 hours! Gorgeous bass though - like a Marcus Miller but minus the fiddly preamp Edited February 21, 2014 by Conan

Gorgeous bass though - like a Marcus Miller but minus the fiddly preamp [/quote] Had to wait a couple of days before apologising, had realised I made the second comment to soon after the original. Used this bass at a gig last night and I am damn tempted to keep it, sounded and amazing and the neck plays like a dream.
wayne severn Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 i want this so bad what's the weight like?
Me And My Bass Posted February 24, 2014 Author Posted February 24, 2014 Weight isnt bad man, well lighter than my trusty MM Ray & Sabres. I will get it on some scales this evening or tomorrow for you. Cheers
Bloc Riff Nut Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 I had this one and regret letting it go [size=4] . [/size][size=4]I loved it but swapping between 4 and 5 strings was messing with my head. Now I only have the 2 five string basses, easier for simple me. This is one of the the best looking basses I've seen, and it sounds great, a real beaut.[/size] [size=4]This is it on my bathroom scales, no pinpoint accuracy, but a good indication.

Me And My Bass Posted February 25, 2014 Author Posted February 25, 2014 Cheers for the extra photo with the weight Phil. Yeah I am having second thoughts about selling it now!

[/quote] It's my other non bass gear eye - I am going to pull the trigger on a new 10mfan tenor sax mouthpiece . . . just incase any of the sax playing bass chat community have one. Bloody expensive this music game.
Scott S Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 I'm not usually drawn to a Jazz....but I am with this one!

mcnach Posted April 30, 2014 Posted April 30, 2014 You are an evil man, you. I already have a Japanese 75RI... but mine has the 60s spacing and I remember liking the 70s spacing when I tried one, a while ago... yours is prettier too So, I don't need it, need it... but... I'm getting ideas. I don't like the black blocks/binding (mine is white pearl blocks and cream binding), if it had no binding (or cream binding), I could not have resisted till now... But it's not a deal breaker... Hmmm... Someone please buy this before I do something silly. EMGs... those are active pickups, right? Where is the battery? Inside the control cavity? Originals pickups and wiring harness included?
