Frusty

I see it's not lined but are there fret marker dots on the side of the fretboard?

[quote name='artisan' post='237053' date='Jul 11 2008, 08:44 AM']it's a bloody bargain for £350.00 so no silly offers please. come on its a fooking cheap nice jazz bass.[/quote] Calm down! I understand your frustration, I think the reason why people might have been reluctant to pay £400 is that American Jazz basses have been for sale for £400 before on this forum, and most people would rather have an American Jazz bass than a Mexican one - I do know that this is a special edition Mexican Jazz but the fact that it's Mexican does affect it's resale value IMHO.

I have always thought these EUB's are one of the most beautiful instruments ever created. Good luck with the sale!

If only this were a lined fretless! Not brave enough to play a 'proper' fretless

Wow - look at the condition of that thing! I'm gonna have to stop visiting this bloody site, too much temptation. I'm just not sure if I have room for another bass!

I have a 4 string grind and the quality is amazing. This is a hell of a bass for the money I'm sure.

That is quite simply breathtaking!

Wow - that really is beautiful.

If you want cash offers, the best thing to do is give us an idea of how much you want for it!

I pm-ed him a few mins ago, hopefully I was the first to do so!

Congrats to whoever got this - you got a bargain!

This really is one of the biggest bargains I've seen on this site. I'm sitting here thinking "buy this you fool", but the fact is that stingray necks are a bit too wide for my liking. But part of me still wants to buy this cause it's such a good deal haha. So someone else hurry up and buy it!

Do you have a sound clip of it with the flats on?

Congratulations on the sale! Great price for a great bass.

It seems that upgrades don't really add that much resale value to an insturment, regardless of whether they are any good or not. For example, I listed a lovely mex strat on this board and others, which had a full set of lace sensor pickups (cost £90) installed, and came with a fender usa hard case and a strap. And I was asking £300 for the lot and no one was interested. In retrospect I'm glad I didn't sell it, but my point is that alot of people will be reluctant to pay £325 for this because they can get a mexican fender for just over £300 brand new on the internet. The one advantage you do have is that some potential buyers have tried it at bass gatherings, so one of them may well snap it up. I'm sure it's a lovely bass, and good on ya for putting flats on it - motown-tastic!

Oh I agree it's a great wee setup for the money. If all else fails, you'll shift it on eBay without much bother I'd imagine!

[url="http://www.rockingrooster.co.uk/product_info.php?PID=434"]http://www.rockingrooster.co.uk/product_info.php?PID=434[/url] If this is the same cab, maybe £125 is a bit too much when you can get it brand new for a fiver extra? One of these cabs sold on ebay recently for £80: [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Ashdown-MAG-115-Deep-Bass-Cabinet-Cab_W0QQitemZ150232666990QQihZ005QQcategoryZ58719QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Ashdown-MAG-115-Deep...1QQcmdZViewItem[/url] The combo is about £300 brand new, so £200 does seem a fair price for that. It's a very nice setup!

Wow what a bargain!

Is it strung with roundwound or flatwound strings?
