Hello,

[u]for sale only[/u] is my new G&L Mj4 purchased this year on January on ebay.com. Cost me 1700 $.

Bought at a time where i was still hoping that a jazz neck pickup could sound like a pbass pickup. The fact is that's not the case, even if pickup are humbuckers on this model ( coils side by side ) According to me, it sounds nearest a pbass pickup than a single coil jazz pickup would do.

Nevermind, now i have accepted that and this G&L has to go because i prefer my passive Roscoe Beck which is a little bit more agressive on the rear pickup.

So active only with bass, medium and treble boost/cut. Vol/bal.

The particularity of the Mj4 is the "pbass" neck. I let you look at the custom build specifications ( not to my request )

Comes with a spare neck ( Value 600/700 $, tuners are not included ) I explain why: when i received the bass, i had difficulty to adjust neck ( truss rod access was difficult and i was frightened to force to put in the adjustement key in the nut ) So i call back seller and G&L send me another new neck. ( Since 2006, G&L truss rod process have changed and it arrives that truss rod acces is difficult..)
The fact is that once the fear has passed, i succeed to adjust neck. Bass is perfectly playable, truss rod is a little bit hard to turn but works :)
( the tint is not exactly the same on the neck apart, the dots are black and not abalone and model logo delete )

With original hardcase, paper, tools.

I can ship internationally. I'm used with shipping so it's well packaged and protected. Contact me for shipping cost.

No trade please.

Weight is 4,2 kilos.

A little bit sound in my Aer Amp two then into Backtrack line6 recorder. A little bit compression, a little bit more when slap.
Note the crispy.

Order is neck pickup flat to start, then with active corrections and both pickup and bridge pickup.

Edit: is there a way to have the soundcloud reader directly in the message window ?
