Hello Guys!

After my GAS is gone, we're again at [b]1100[color=#5A5A5A][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][size=4][b]£ [/b][/size][/font][/color][/b]

[font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#5a5a5a][size=4]I've been offered for this price @ BassDirect (as a partial trade, but I didn't want), It's a descent price (including shippment)
I prefer bank transfer over PayPal (seriously, they have high fees!)[/size][/color][/font]

[color=#5A5A5A][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][size=4]I can ship that bass anywhere in Europe, custom made, proffesional roadcase is included.

For sale is stunning Mayones Jabba, which has been made for an endorser. It's probably the first or one of the first custom model of Jabba Bass.[/size][/font][/color]

[color=#5A5A5A][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][size=4]Yes it's one-off, custom bass from this factory.[/size][/font][/color]

[u][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#5a5a5a][size=4]SPECS:[/size][/color][/font][/u][list]
[*][b]Maple neck[/b]
[*][b]Alder body[/b]
[*][b]Rosewood fingerboard[/b]
[*][b]Nordstand Pickups (P+Big Split)[/b]
[*][b]Passive[/b]
[*][b]Hipshot Tuners&Bridge.[/b]
[/list]
From my information (confirmed) it was the best Jabba PBH from the factory.
I played on some models and this one is definetly most comfortable and best sounding.

[b][u]I am also opened for resonable offers.[/u][/b]

I will add a better audio samples, soon, these from below has been recorded on poor UX2 directly, with an old strings :(

It's not a fender jazz bass. Neck is much more comrtable in my opinion. The sound is warmer, softer, more "modern" I think this instrument is more "polite" overall.
Has been used on many shows during big and smaller fests.
It's passive bass, wired vol/vol tone/tone for each PU. I thought about putting pre inside, but you don't need a battery when you're giggin'.
Great companion to Ampeg.
I will probably use it during Brutal Assault this year (it's my main bass on rehearsals now) so if you'd be in Czech Republic during 10-13th of August, Antigama plays 11th

[b]String spacing: [/b]standard Hipshot Vintage (18,5~19mm)

[b]THIS BASS IS LIGHT, it's safe to your back[/b]


[b]Prefer straight sale, trade is also an option but only 1:1[/b]

Nice. I can vouch for this one, superb build quality and many tonal possibilites thanks to Nordstrandt pickups.

Btw, it was made for a polish Mayones endorser. 1200 is a very good price.

Yes indeed, thanx Doman for mention that!
A little correction: bridge pickup is called "Big Split" :)

Really good bass in Sadowsky style, but more universal and "polite" sounding.
Passive electronics is a big plus for this one, instead of crappy sounding Delano PU's, Nordys brought to that bass this brilliant "highs", taking all goods from the wood!
As it was endorser-built bass it has also a better wood quality than I belive the other Jabba basses.
Great P-bass sound and modern jazz on both PU's!
In my opinion this bass is worthy!

Actually the only bass I am interested in is SS2 (Dolphin too, but only insane guy would change Dolphin for Mayones with my whole respect to this ;) ) therefore I prefer straight sale - could also add some $$ to SS2(5).
This Jabba is worth that money for sure, it's an endorsement-grade bass (and yet a prototype built for past endorser of this brand), so I doubt that future owner would be disappointed :)

Let someone else play on this bass for a descent money and I'm pretty sure (played on some Jabba's before) it's a far better than stock quality instrument :)

It's an interesting option, but first I'm gonna look for a straight sale for this bass.
I can have SS2 for ~1,5k what seems to be closer to my expectations according to sound that I need.

Your offer is still reasonable but I'd prefer to add smaller cash amount if the bass is not called SS2/DOLPHIN ;)

That's fantastic Thumb anyways!
