  1. This stunning bass deserves to be at the top, 'av a bump Dave.
  2. Last knockings peeps, my Rick will be going up tomorrow, this will be coming down.
  3. The rumours & speculation I've come across is they are Fender Aerodyne Factory Special Run & appeared very briefly on the Fender USA site, only to vanish quickly. Not the first time they've played that card! Presumably Fender Japan if they are Aerodyne. Possibly leaked before being released next winter NAMM? Anybody got anything concrete?
  4. The string packet states "long scale" 🙂 Thanks Lawrence, lovely indeed. Thomann are quoting "several months" wait for a new Ultra. Anderton's are stating "pre-order". What's the odds on a price increase as well? (yes I know that's speculation).
  5. Many thanks Lawrence, hope you are good. With the current situation with new Fender USA basses & speculation over the future of them, with what's happening in Corona, I'm going to leave this up for a couple more days then probably put it "under the bed" for a couple of years.
  6. The cynic in me wonders if the cheaper to produce Mexico range will replace the US Professional & Performance range, leaving Corona to produce American Vintage & Custom Shop?
  7. Indeed it would. Get yer wallet out 😁
  8. Cheers Matt, so am I, although there have been several trade offers for gear that's not required. You are of course correct. I'm happy now to discuss a sale & catch a Jazz when one comes up.
  9. I gigged this outdoors on Friday night & indoors on Saturday night. On both occasions it sounded huge & so authoritative. I'm no longer in a rush to move it on, my thinking being using it at more formal gigs where I don't goof around on the fretboard so much. Places like Dormans Club this coming Saturday.
  10. I've now had a few trade offers. 3 folk have offered me American Standards. They are a lower price bracket than the Elite so I won't be doing a straight swap thank you!
  11. That's a first, two days on Basschat & absolutely zero interest. Perhaps it needs to go on FeeBay at £1550 like the couple that are up there. Dreamers 😆
  12. I would like to trade for a similarly immaculate Fender Elite Jazz bass however I am happy to discuss a straight sale. Increasing age & arthritis mean I prefer a jazz neck. 2019 bass with original case, weight is 8lb 14oz (yes, I've seen the scratchplate needs a wipe thank you 😁). Unlike the Ultra that replaced them, these have the truss rod wheel & the option of through body stringing. Active or passive with a dedicated passive tone control. Wonderful asymmetrical neck which goes from C profile at the bass end to D at the dusty end. Compound radius fingerboard going from 9.5 inches at bass end to 14 inches at the dusty end. Truly well thought out necks. COURIER. I'd rather not but if buyer wants to organise & pay for one I will sort out the boxing up & the sitting behind the front door waiting for the courier. Feedback available. Many thanks for looking, cheers, Karl.
  13. Yeah, I hesitated for a couple of hours on this one, when I decided do it, it had just been sold. Lovely.
  14. Or "sad anorak" as he's usually called 😁
  15. Please buy it very quickly, I'm in Hereford in just under 3 weeks and that's far too close 😁
  16. Just done a trade with Graham. He has been simply outstanding, organising couriers & funds. I've seen some good packaging before but his is seriously world class. Superb. Comms have been excellent & he has been such an absolute joy to "speak to". The bass is even better than the photos. Graham is yet another astonishingly good ambassador for Basschat. Enjoy Graham & thanks for everything.
  17. Possible trades, straight swap (meet half way or my house). Vintera Precision Sea Foam Green Fender Deluxe Active P Bass Special (2016/2019)
  18. Having seen a Mex Hoppus up at £1350 and a Mex Noir at £850 this week, I should be putting the price up rather than dropping it 😮😁
  19. There is an older, non signature model of this line up at £900. I think mine is a bit of a bargain.
