I bought this a few years ago.
It's a great bass, but it it's spent most of its life with me hanging on the wall.
It's in pretty much perfect shape, my idea of perfect is a little different to some peoples, when I say perfect I don't then go on to list various bumps and dents, this is about as nice as you'll get.
I did change the rather ugly original mock tortoiseshell scratchplate that came with it to a rather nice black pearloid one.
From what I've read, Steve Bailey played a stock one of these. He didn't play one that had been souped up in any way, his had the same Seymour Duncan pickups and preamp, same neck etc.
As you can see, it features an unlined 24 fret real ebony board. The ebony is quite a slab too, this probably explains the exquisite deep tone that you get from it.
The action is quite low, plenty of mwaaaah going on !
The bass is currently strung with medium gauge DR Sunbeams.
[s]I don't have a case for it, so I would prefer anyone interested in buying it to do so in person, or I could meet. It does come with a reasonable quality gig bag.[/s]
I do now have a case, so shipping is possible, though I would prefer collection or to meet somewhere.
For sale for £375 or trades welcome for a Fender Jazz bass.
