karlfer Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 (edited) Hello folks, tester before e.bay(which I rarely use as,erm, not keen,to say least). Need to sell a bass before VAT due end of July. God bless Cool Brittania. Photos from crap mobile phone, but get the gist. '93 (O 06***6) MIJ Jazz,rare transluscent cherry red,(including back of neck and headstock) golden hardware/fittings.Believe pick ups to be Japanese vintage Jazz. Very good condition, 3 little dings on back of headstock.Slight dead spot, frets 15/16 D string. Padded gigbag included. Bought it decade ago, original owner brought it back from Japan(he worked for Shell).Told me it was one of a special run made for none export, Japanese retailers. Further reseach( i.e. tapped in FENDER JAZZ, MIJ) brought up a Japanese specialist website, that said CIJ started late '93, after this bass was made. Anyway, because of age/rarity/condition I am looking for £500(please, no price debates, thats what I THINK IT'S WORTH,and this market(hopefully not e.bay) will show me right or wrong). Would consider £100 plus good nick Shaftesbury/Kasuga/Ibanez copy of a bass that began with 4, although that would mean my GEDDY coming on in the near future. If anyone interested, pick up only but will come some way to meet. Any trial preferred, as we all know how personal basses are. I live in Wigan. Finally, please tell me, what do BUMP, and LOL mean? Cheers, Karl. ONE REDUCTION BEFORE E.BAY. WILL RELUCTANTLY ACCEPT £45O, BUYER COLLECTS. LETS BE HONEST, THEY DON'T MAKE THIS BASS EVERYDAY. IT WILL ONLY GET MORE DESIRABLE (IN MY OPINION) Edited July 10, 2009 by karlfer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have PM'd and not got a reply, it's because I seem to have got the forum to only allow me to reply to 1 PM per day??? Dont know if that's normal or just me being as muppet-ish as usual. Anyway, I really need cash due to a one off higher tham normal VAT bill. Tricky times. Cheers, Karl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karlfer Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 sorry, didn't know about the capitals/shouty bit. must admit, I've allways loved this bass, struggling to believe can't sell amongst so many bassheads. desperately trying to avoid robbing bay/paypal, not allowed to use this description, will you take £50 of pick and mix, will you deliver it to 4th rock to left of Joddrell Bank etc. good luck with the zimmer (is an exclaimation mark allowed?) cheers, Karl.
