  1. Hi Folks, Now i know for sure..i am definitely a bass palyer, who only needs 4 strings. Due to this, i wolud like to trade or sell this awesome one of a kind 5 string jb. As i have not those big hands, i looked for a 5 string with the playability of a 4 string bass, tested different models and roundabout 30 different fender jazzbasses. the result was this beauty. It is a 2000 USA Fender Jazzbass, ash body, rosewood fingerboard in translucient white. This bass is really 1 of akind..try to find a 5 string ash body, try to find one in a rare colour. the colour is nearly white and you can see all the beauty of the ash wood through this translucient finish. the bass is looks alomost new. But this is only what the bass looks like..more important, how does the bass sound? Most interesting thing about a 5 string is..sure the 5th string, some people have prejudices about a Fender Bass and the 5th string, believe me..i taught everybody a lesson with this bass, the B string is really awesome!Clear and defined B, in my band i was tuned down to a and the bass sounded even down there amazing. Due to the ash body the sound has deep low end and and gives a deep punch in your face, the higher played tones are clear and transparent..remember Marcus Miller uses mostly ash bodys! If you choose only the Neck Pikcup, the bass goes nearly to a traditional P Bass sound, only bridge pickup and Jaco would be proud. So to sum it up, this bass is a fantastic demonstration of fine craftsmanship, really in a quality of a masterbuild Fender Bass. The neck is straight like an arrow, you can play the strings as low as the strings should be, it has a better playability than my 4 string basses, the b-string is awesome and sounds like the voice of god.The original case is included, also the manual, the original trussrod tool and the hangtags..so this bass is for players an collectors. this is no sentence to sell the bass, honestly, i am thinking now for weeks about selling the bass. it breaks my heart, because it is such a fine instrument, but for me i do not need the 5th string..when i have to play a gig i always choose my 4 strings. So now i am open for offers. I will look for money, or for a fine Fender Precision Bass. I am able to value up my bass with money for a old P bass. I will add further pictures this evening, thanks for reading my words.
