For Sale only Xotic XJ 1T (Japan). One of the world’s best Jazz basses? REDUCED FOR QUICK SALE £950 plus contribution to shipping costs.. - *SOLD* £1050 Wigan

[MNY]

This is a very reluctant sale for me considering my appreciation of Jazz basses, I believe this is one of the very best I have played. However with my advancing years I find myself needing a little less weight in my basses, not that this is particularly heavy at 9 lbs 5 oz but I am definitely looking for something in the sub 8 lb range if possible. I know many of you will be aware of Xotic bass as they have many fans and endorsers such as Travis Carlton, John Peña, Rufus Philpot,Tetsuo Sakurai and Carmine Rojas to name just a few., This bass is a 2015 model and whilst it has some player wear it has definitely not been abused. The set up allows the bass to play and sound fantastic. I only tend to play it through a Fender practice combo so I am sure through a good rig it will sound epic. 
 

As I mentioned I am looking for a lighter bass so the only trades I will consider will have to be for lightweight instruments. There could be a little wriggle room on the price but I am already losing money based on what I paid when I picked this bass up a few weeks ago. This will be a heaven sent instrument for someone wanting a top pro bass for sensible money. It has the hum reduction circuit built in so no single coil hum which would make it an excellent recording tool. I would put this up against most other Jazz basses (Sadowsky, Fender, Bacchus, Overwater etc) and I am sure it will come out quite favourably.

 

Comes with a very sturdy gig bag, certificate, spec card, tags and stickers.  If you want to arrange a courier to collect you are more than welcome, I may have a suitable box that can be used. Failing that collection or delivery during a meet up may be possible as I travel up and down the country with my work. 
 

FOR SALE ONLY PLEASE AS I HAVE A NEW BASS ON ORDER AND HAVE A 1 IN 1 OUT POLICY. 
 

If you have any questions please do let me know.

This used to be mine a few years ago, it's such an amazing bass. The neck is one of the nicest I've ever played!

Thank you for your post, it’s a lovely bass, but sadly I have a glass back and shoulder issues, caused by years of rugby and cricket. A lighter bass is going to be required to be able to enjoy my playing in the future.

Not interested in buying unfortunately asd I already have an Xotic but I have to say that's a great price - someone's going to get a great bass at a steal!
