Fender American Original 60s Jazz Bass in CAR 2018 pics added - *SOLD* £1235 Clitheroe

[Duroc17]

Up for grabs superb AO series Jazz bass in lovely nitro candy apple red nitro. It’s a lovely looking thing!

 

The pick ups pure 64s are only available in this bass and the Flea bass- and arent available to buy i believe - but they are probably the best I've ever experienced, very articulate, precise but warm and fulsome. 

 

I had guitar tech pal- sand the neck down to bare (as the nitro was sticky and still had poss 5 more years to fully cure) then lightly oiled, so smoooooth - the neck is a hard maple with a lovely deep dark rosewood, with slightly chunkier feel than most jazzes i've played - the radius isn't original though it's a more comfy 9.25 than the 7.5 of the 60s basses with tall narrow frets in great condition. Set up with new TI flats with nice low action.

 

Reverse gear tuners, hootenanny button

Weight is approx 9.5lbs - i have no scales but have had multiple 4 hour rehearsals on a strap and never felt too heavy - hell if you're nice to me i'll thrown in the 3" wide strap i bought for this

Comes with all the case candy and spare mint green guard had made for it - but no original case - for shipping i have a funky vintage green fur lined wooden case (please note this is for shipping and free as one of the hinges has loose screws) or can add Gator Transit case in tan that fits it like a glove for £50 - will advertise it separately for £70

There has been a repair to slight ding on lower bout in pic and very faint - apart from the looks and sounds amazing

 

Selling to recoup money from a vintage bass purchase

Prefer you to come play it in clitheroe or meet up north west or west yorks, but can ship for £30 insured to UK only - very sensible offers considered 

 

can be seen sort of here iphone sound through borrowed amp
