Pow_22 Posted February 11 Posted February 11 (edited) Excellent condition japanese Fender Jazz bass. I think the 90’s japanese reissues are as close as you get to the vintage instruments but without the price tag. This one has had new pickups (originals will come with the bass also) which are the superb Tonerider pickups. Electrics were upgraded at the time too as the cheap japanese pots were noisy and the tone pot didnt seem to do much at all. It had a full setup 2 weeks ago at PSG Guitars in Bury where the current elites Groundwound strings were installed. The is one finish scratch to the back as photo’d and a few playing swirls here and there. I dont believe the pickguard is original to the bass as its needs a tiny bit if fettling round the bell plate to sit fully flush. Finally that is a real genuine 70’s bridge cover. Only reason for selling is my p basses are getting more action and i have a rickenbacker itch i want to scratch. Can be seen, tested and played here in Bolton. **Postage is possible within UK as i do have a packing box but no case. Would be well packed though** Would consider a part ex with cash my way for a black Dirnt sig bass (ideally fender but would consider the Squier) Edited April 23 by Pow_22 7
Pow_22 Posted February 11 Author Posted February 11 Weight is a smidge under 10lbs on the luggage scales and ill get pics of the scratch on the back asap
lee650 Posted February 13 Posted February 13 (edited) Very lovely!! Proper 70's pickup spacing? I think it is! 😊 Edited February 13 by lee650
Pow_22 Posted February 13 Author Posted February 13 Alas i think as with most of the 75RI’s it is 60’s spec spacing
Pow_22 Posted March 7 Author Posted March 7 (edited) Not much interest here so going to pull it for now and see if i can get it to work for me using my recently acquired Bassrig Super Vintage. Always like the tone of the jazz i just find my p bass sounds more 'even' across the board and i dont drop out of the mix as much as when i use the jazz. Its absolutely down to user error so i need to up my game Back up as i have a P bass incoming now. I should have sufficient packing for UK postage if needed shortly or as always meet ups are a possibility Edited March 12 by Pow_22
