Bass regret! Who has my 33” flamed red Shuker Jazz 5??

Recommended Posts

8 years ago I made the silly decision to sell a bass I had custom made by Jon Shuker - a 33” red Jazz 5 with block inlays. I found a picture of it on the website and wondered if, by the power of the internet, I could either buy it back or at least know where it ended up!

Can anyone help?! 😘

I've foolishly parted with 3 Shuker basses searching for the holy grail- should have just stuck with the first one - it was probably the best bass I've ever owned.

It's even worse when  seeing them go for much more used than you paid for them new !

Not been given much to go on,so I'll bite.

1 Did you sell it on here?

2. If so can you remember the buyers name? If not where they lived?

3. If not here, where did you sell it, private or to a shop?

4. Think you get my drift, as much info as possible will help😉

Not sure if you can still access your old PM's, but maybe speak to a Mod by PM?

I can't, but I did have the guy's email but no response yet!

Good luck finding it. I know how you feel. I sold my Olympic White Precision on here a few years back and wished I hadn't. I know the serial so might start a thread like yours. Good luck.

Thanks very much. I can't believe I sold a bass I had custom made. Madness. Really hope I find it!

Good point! Sold it through basschat to a guy called Will 8 years ago. Met him at South Mimms. I have dropped him an email today but nothing yet! 

There was a member called Will 8 years ago ?    O.o

Great name

I've had a few regrets - first one was a pseudo-Sei, made from a Brandoni body, and fitted with a Bartolini MME pickup and a Kahler trem. That bass probably saved my life during some pretty low times back in the late 90s/early 00s. I foolishly sold it to Notting Hill Music Exchange about 16 years ago. 

The second one was another Sei - a 5-string fretless with Wal pickups and electronics. Sold it to a guy in Japan (who I think is a BC member) in 2005. I'm sure he loves it, but I miss it badly. The thing was amazing. 

Now I'm actually a proper grown-up with money, I'd buy either of them back in a heartbeat. :)

I'd like to know where my original 84 Overwater Standard single pup is - huge mistake.

This,  but single pup and passive - very hard to even find a photo of one
