SOLD - Fender Jazz Bass Victor Bailey Fretless £1560

[cascanicoff]

[size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]For sale this magnificent Fender Jazz Bass Victor Bailey fretless.[/font][/size]

[size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]It is based upon Bailey's Pensa Suhr, the one he used to play before moving to Fender. It is an active bass, lightweight (ca. 4 kg, I reckon) with the sweetest neck I have played in my whole life. Specs can be found in this (and many other) link: [url="http://www.chorder.com/electric-bass-guitars/fender/victor-bailey-jazz-bass-fretless-4200"]http://www.chorder.c...s-fretless-4200[/url]. The bass was discontinued by Fender in 2011 to general sorrow, since it is one of the best series that Fender has built in many years.[/font][/size]

The bass is in perfect condition, except for two details that can be seen in the pictures:[list]
[*]The back of the tuners have some little screws that are missing. It is a merely esthetic issue (if at all), with no influence whatsoever in the tuning or in the playability of the bass.
[*]The case (original) has got a scratch on one side.
[/list]
Otherwise I dare say that the bass is mint. It is located in Bilbao, North Spain. It comes with flats and the price includes shipping within EU (except islands, colonies, space stations et al.)

And the eye candy, of course. For those who dare look...:

Very Very cool.! These just don't come up very often. Especially the fretless version.

nice

Thanks for the nice comments, lads.

The playability of this bass is second to none. And the fretlines, together with the thin neck, make the transition to fretless extremely smooth and easy.

Up it goes.

Up again.

A fretless that sounds truly fretless, but plays as easy as a fretted one. One of the best basses produced by Fender in many years.

Up

[bubinga5]

Only my opinion. But I would keep this in a case for 10 years. They will be classics and worth alot more. Imo. Good luck with the sale though.😊

[cascanicoff]

I already have another one . That's the only reason I'm selling this.

Thanks for your words in any case, bubinga5
