Open to trades with cash my way...

1973 Fender Jazz in Olympic white When I got this I was told it was the original colour by the deceased wife who also gave me a pic of him playing it in 1990 Upon closer inspection it looks to have be oversprayed as the original guard holes were filled in to accomodate the new guard, they obviously didnt match up So not 100% to its original colour but there are remanents of a darke white in the pocket, anyway on to the bass itself Apart from the guard that I got from the states that has been reliced some, not cheap these Various marks and minor dings but nothing nasty Tug bar is aftermarket, most of the screws are original, pots date to 73 , serial plate 424488 is 73, pickups are dated 73 I had saved pics of the pickups. but cant find them but I can take them out again for the new owner if wished Weight without the covers is 4.1 Kg's Frets in good condition, truss rod works both ways Some lacquer flaking to the neck but the neck is now completly smooth so you wont feel the flaked lacquer Some stiffness in the tuners but holds in tune well Good action and straight neck Fitted with broken in flats will be sent in a generic case, I have a later 70's case of the new buyer wishes to discuss, its the maroon velvet interior I have priced this keenly due to the refinish, all original would be about 3.5K Hopefully thats everything covered, courier is included in the price

I bought these off Funkle at the start of this year, put into a Jazz that I build but I have since parted it out so up for sale A little damage to bottom of the pickup housing to accomodate the screws but does not impact on the pickup, here is the original listing.. Another find from my extensive and unusual parts clear-out. This is a set of Celinder SS Humbucker Alnico Jazz Pickups for 4 string basses Truly a unique set of pickups. I only know of one other person who has a similar set - I think it might be @Kiwi if I recall correctly. I had these made as a custom order direct from Aaron Armstrong back in 2013. I had them made for a Celinder 60's Jazz Bass I owned at that point, and they served me well when mated to a John East J-Retro. When the bass was sold, I reverted it to the original single coils. So these are humbuckers nearly identical to those in every Celinder Update Jazz bass (70s Jazz bass tributes), except they are alnico instead of ceramic. This was to give me a sound more typical of a 60's Jazz, but without the hum. It worked. (Aaron tells me the humbucker design has two coils rotated through 90 degrees, with magnets in the middle of them pressed up against a blade of steel, which in turn runs down the whole length of the middle of the pickup.) They are very low output and low impedance. They have a sound extremely near to single coils - as with other Celinder Updates - but they must be mated to an active preamp to have typical instrument level output. It's been a minute since I used them. But when removed from my Celinder, they were fully working, and I expect them to perform normally. A new set of these would probably be around £250, I think. Ask Aaron, I guess, he would tell you. Price to include postage to the UK
