***SOLD*** FS/Trade Xotic XJ-1 5 String Jazz Bass - Metallic Blue £1400

[OriginalGBass]

Just putting the feelers out on this one really. Looking to trade ideally for a vintage precision bass (rosewood neck), but will take cash sale / offers on any American Precisions.

Honestly I don't want to get rid of this Xotic at all, it really is in my opinion THE BEST Jazz 5 on the market for build, tone, versatility, weight, balance etc. it is astounding! If I could afford to buy a Precision it would be staying that is for sure. I'd like to hear what offers any of you guys with a Precision you are willing to part with.

[OriginalGBass]

Getting quite a few offers haha not of what I'm asking for though haha! Thank you gents anyway, but I really do just want a P Bass with a rosewood neck. Will take vintage as straight trade, reissues, American standard + cash my way.

This is a great opportunity to get hold of an Xotic at a bargain price fellas!
