nottswarwick Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 Righty ho everyone. My Black USA JAzz four string needs to be swapped for a fiver of some description. Reason - I need five strings on my main band, plain and simple. So thus I always use my SR5, but for some numbers teh Jazz has a deeper more trad tone. Just seeing what is out there really. Mine is around 2001 vintage, rosewood board, black paint, black scratchplate. Full original hard case and all the gubbins. Would consider a USA Jazz fiver, or Lakland, or Warwick, or MM wiht 2 pickups (HS or HH) or anything really, but it needs to be a decent bass, in simliar good/very good condition to mine. Cash from me if required. SO, whatcha got? Cheers all Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a lakland 55-02 but the SR5 HH does the best of both worlds thing WAY better and in a 34" scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russ, have you got a HS or HH? Does it really do the jazz bass sound? I need something that will give a deeper sound than a normal ray? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took one of the pickups in my SR5HH out and they're only dual coil so no chance of a noiseless single pickup single coil mode as with a single pickup SR5 Try one out if you can r Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
