Shuker Jazz 5 

I can't remember the spec on this other than it plays/ looks and sounds great. Has blue LED fret markers 😍

Email from the man man himself!  --- I’ve found the original spec from early 2010, I think the bass (and spec may have had a few changes) such as the rotary dimmer control and the zero fret change.
 
The top is Mexican Para Kingwood burr and very rare. I think the pickups were change to some Aaron Armstrong pickups and the circuit may have been changed to a glockenklang (may have changed again can’t remember)
 
cheers
Jon

Hi, just seen this. Yes was my bass and built as discussed with Jon S. Really can't think why I sold it on as a lovely sound and a pleasure to play. Probably too many basses at the time.

The rotary dimmer and zero fret was original if I remember correctly.

I am proper gutted. I wondered into this forum without realising it and thought "Shuker J5 and the price is right! I am going in!" Then I saw the pictures and realised I was in the wrong place.
