Pete1967 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) Hi All, I'm moving house, actually more accurately I'm building a house, and if anyone here has already done it I take my hat off to you because it's scary as hell while at the same time being one of the most exciting things I've ever done. Needless to say I need to slim down the herd and raise as much cash as I can so I'll be selling quite a bit of stuff that I've collected over the years and I'll list most of it in a consolidated thread, but worthy of a separate listing is my Shuker Jazz bass. I bought it directly from Jon in 2010 so it's a one owner extremely low mileage example.... It's never been gigged although I have used it at home for some recordings and practise, but it's always lived in its case and it is absolutely as new, not a mark on it. Spec is as follows: Ash body with black grain fill and satin green lacquer Cream three ply, one piece scratchguard Maple neck, satin finish Madagascar Rosewood fretboard (rare apparently) Brass nut Stainless steel frets Gotoh bridge Hipshot ultralite tuners Delano JC4AL/M2 Pickups (noiseless alnico split coils) Aguilar OBP2 preamp with passive bypass Black hardware It's currently wired Vol/Bal/Stack tone, but I'm happy to rewire it t Vol/Vol/ Stack tone if perferred that way. It comes with a Kases hard foam case which fits it perfectly and provides excellent protection. I had a chat with Jon about what this spec would cost now and he indicated £1400, so this has to be bargain at £725 [s]£750 (was £800)[/s], and I'll certainly listen to sensible offers. Delivery to UK mainland included.. please IM me for highlands, islands and further afield, or collection from north Leeds.

Rounday to be exact, right on the park... hence the need for as much cash as I can lay my sticky fingers on Turns out building in a conservation area has a pricetag!

[/quote] Yes it's an odd combination of fun and blind panic! The bass weighs in at 8 1/4 lbs according to my Leeda fishing scales... the heaviest thing they've ever weighed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myke Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 My first response to seeing this was 'Ooh! Wow, that's pretty!' I'd love if I could afford this but I'm a student so sadly not. GLWTS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete1967 Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 Thanks Myke, I thought so too which is partly why I bought it... the other reasons are that it sounds great and was built by a master craftsman Any takers....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
