SOLD

now only £700 (+£15 for UK courier)

For sale only: super light Maruszczyk Jake L4p P/J Green Valley Metallic P/J with Haussel pickups

History

Purchased new a few months ago from Gorny Music in Switzerland, but recent purchase forces me to move it on...you can get some lovely pics from Gorny's gallery here:

http://gornymusic.ch/sold/maruszczyk_jake_4p_green_valley_metallic.html

The colour is *very* similar to Fender Ocean Turquoise Metallic - I had an OTM Jazz which was a *slightly* deeper blue than this. Gorgeous colour regardless!

Spec and condition

Super light alder body (3.28 kg, 7lbs 4oz)

Rosewood board on maple neck.

Nut: 40mm

Neck profile feels like a Fender 'C'

No neck dive

Neck finish is a very light satin - no stickiness

21 fret with zero fret

Hausell P/J pickups, passive electronics (Volume, Volume, Tone)

High mass bridge and wearing Maruszczyk nickel strings. Comes with the soft gig bag and all bag candy.

No sound/playing issues, gigged once, and one ding on the headstock edge (see pick) - possibly when it floated away when left unattended for a minute...

Payment and postage

Payment by BACS or PayPal with fees paid by buyer. UK courier at £15 in original cardboard box with the gigbag padding. I'm in Tonbridge, Kent, approx 15 mins from J5 M25. Cheers!

Seriously tempted to buy this and swap the pickups and passive controls into my Jake 4LA, especially as I got a rebate on my pension charges this week; but I should pay the tax-man and buy stock for the business really

Precision or jazz nut width? 40mm, maybe?

Lightweight bump (a nudge perhaps?)

Argh, this is gorgeous, and so light, and I’m not far from you, and I wish I could justify the cash!

I had this up for sale with the gallery,  but needed to use it for a gig before Christmas - but I've now converted to 5s so back up for slae (at a lower price!) here

I played this bass at the Gallery a few months ago - gorgeous instrument. Insanely light, delicious woody tone and that neck was just a dream! GLWTS sir.

VVT - good question, I'll add that to the description.
