Reduced - Fender Jazz Bass Deluxe MIM 2016 Active/Passive. Ash/Maple. - *SOLD* £675 Gloucestershire

[MungoBass]

Price drop to £645.

 

I’m reluctantly putting this up for sale after another recent Jazz purchase.

 

You don’t often see these earlier Ash / Maple / Black block versions, most Maple boards seem to be with a Sunburst body with Black dots and no binding.  The bass is in excellent overall condition with one very minor blemish as shown on the upper side near the horn and four tiny indents on the face of the upper horn.  The pickguard does have pick marks and swirls but could of course easily be replaced if required.  The strings are roundwounds and whilst I really like their well used dullness, others may want more zing!  The action is pretty low and the frets are also in great shape.  

 

Controls are volume / pickup pan / stacked bass & treble / mini-switch for active passive mode and finally, mid for the two noiseless Jazz pickups.

 

The fingerboard radius is a modern 12 inches and the heavy duty bridge is a great improvement over the typical BBOT!

 

I would prefer a straight sale otherwise the wife will pull my bits off......again!

 

Shipping can be arranged if required but pick up in person is most welcome.

I feel It is a lot of bass for the money and the wide range of tones available is impressive too!

How much noiseless the pickups system is?

[songofthewind]

Cor, tasty, and I don’t usually care for a maple fingerboard on a bass. And you are so close to me. Must resist.

There is no single coil hum.  The active system can add real depth or biting treble to the tone if required.

Stunner!

He weighs a comfortable 4.15 kgs or just over 9 and a bit pounds.  

 

When I first picked him up I was pleasantly surprised, as I was expecting the Ash body to weigh in heavier.

Thank you.  It is also a fantastic sounding and playing bass!  The action is pretty low which makes it so easy to play.  I think a set of black strings would make it look even more fantastic!

I love an active jazz bass. Been using my Sire V7 quite a bit lately. I’m a sucker for a maple necked Fender, if I wasn’t in the process of sorting a new amp out, I’d be all over this
