    [quote name='dodgnofski' timestamp='1360695782' post='1974941'] Would love the red CV !! - a heads up if you are using Parcelfarce - the Post Office peeps will sell you enhanced compensation - but if anything happens to the bass - they won't pay a penny over the basic, included insurance of £100, or so I've been told???? off to check the Piggy Bank [/quote] They will, if you have followed their strict requirements regarding packaging. As I know to my cost ...
  3. I don't understand why this is still here ..,
  4. [quote name='guybrush threepwood' timestamp='1361535992' post='1987088'] Ooh, used to have one of these in natural which I sold because it was too heavy! I've been after a precision that matches it for ages, but unfortunately found it in another CIJ last weekend. [/quote] Yes its a great bass, i used to own it
  5. In this case, I think he is right though. Yamahabass should have read the original post as his questions are already answered there, his offer is low and should anyway be made privately.
  6. Www.youmustbejoking.com/getstuffed/ Pretty much sums it up
  7. [quote name='mckendrick' timestamp='1361462334' post='1986066'] Gorgeous bass. Really good price, too. Fantastic bargain. [/quote] Thanks - I should have asked for more
  8. It is : http://basschat.co.uk/topic/200328-fs-japan-75-reissue-jazz-with-us-pickups-in-natural-plus-rosewood-with-blocks-perfect-condition/#entry1985841
  9. [b][size=6]NO TRADES PLEASE [/size][/b][b]sorry to shout .. [size=2][b](except maybe a roadworn in sunburst with maple in good condition)[/b][/size] [size=4]Immaculate with no flaws at all. [/size][/b] I'm advised that this has US pickups and wiring. It's clean and the board has been lemon-oiled. Its a lovely piece of rosewood with superb grain. Body is single piece ash and it weighs 4.7kg/10.3lbs so only 200g more than a jap 62 jazz (200g is about the weight of a DVD and case). It's very quiet as far as noise goes but the pickups are very full sounding. Far as I can tell the bass is 100% original. Neck is straight and has new strings 45 - 105. I've checked the neck relief and its a textbook (see fender website) 0.30mm at the eighth fret (with first and last frets held), and there is clearly free travel left in the truss rod. The action is down to a textbook 2.8mm on low E and 2.4mm on high G (measured at the 17th). Action at the 12th is around 2mm according to my ruler. Niceguyhomer has seen this and played it Pics: Would much prefer meet or collection from near j28 of M1 Will ship if need be, in a disassembled state inside a big strong box as I don't have a hard case. This will be by 24 hour signed-for courier at a cost of around £12 plus insurance unless you want to arrange your own I think this is easily worth £550 as its absolutely perfect. More pics and details on request, please specify what you want and I'll do whatever I can to assist. No silly offers please, you know it's worth at least what I'm asking Please see my feedback thread, I'm also selling a 62 reissue jazz, see link in my signature. please PM me (stating "75 reissue" or somesuch) as I don't seem to get all notifications. Thanks
  10. Thanks - it may well be up for sale shortly
  11. According to expert advice about 75s - there was never an export model - all 75s have us pickups
  12. Yes think I mentioned that in my modified first post. Any tips on what to look for in the neck pocket ?

Pickups quite loud and full but not noisy
  14. Do you have a link for that ? Links I found only tell you the year approx
  15. Available for sale once more - will listen to sensible offers
  16. Now unsold - payment not pending .... Anyone want a lovely backup bass ?
  17. Yeah - I bid on that , missed by a few quid What would people expect a standard one to be worth ?
