[quote name='budget bassist' post='786194' date='Mar 25 2010, 07:14 PM']that's a stunning colour[/quote]
Age wise I have no idea I'm afraid, it doesn't have the latest style tuners on it thought, the frets look in pretty good nick to me.

Evening everyone,

here we have a Fender American Deluxe jazz bass in "cherry burst" with rosewood board & dot inlays, noiseless pickups & active preamp. I picked this up recently as part of a trade but don't have any real need for it so have decided to sell on to raise some extra cash. The bass is a really good player, great neck, no issues with the electronics & with new strings fitted. There are couple of dings on the body (pictured) but nothing that effect playability or signs of real abuse. She comes with a reasonable Hiscox case & I can ship (cost to be negotiated). I'm pricing at £595 ono for a quick sale.
Cheers for looking.

[quote name='JMT3781' post='785348' date='Mar 24 2010, 11:36 PM']I played this bass today.. Absolutely stunning bass, great looks, great feel, great sound. Would love it but one alembic purchase is probably enough.. for this week at least [/quote]
It is a beaut & I think a pretty good price for a mint one of these but I have plenty of basses & not plenty of cash, the 5er is also challenging for my "hobby horse" technique!

[quote name='Beneath It All' post='785031' date='Mar 24 2010, 07:24 PM']WoW! Always disliked Alembic headstocks - that one looks really cool; don't 'spose you're heading anywhere near Leeds sometime soon [I gotta stop buying 'unseen']..[/quote]
Alas I'm not, it is a beauty but I'm skint & cannot not get my head round a 5, getting to the point of being embarassing!

[quote name='giblett123' post='783713' date='Mar 23 2010, 05:31 PM']Cheers! It is pretty, I'm also entertaining trades for stuff round the £1k mark with a few quid my way.[/quote]
Price drop bump!

Cheers James,
great transaction with a top bloke & v serious player! look forward to doing business again.
All the best
Chris.

Morning everyone,

I'm after some advice! does anyone out there know of a luthier/guitar tech in the Midlands area who can be trusted/recommended to do a decent pro set up on my basses? I could take it to the gallery where it will get real tlc but if there is someone local who is good then I can give them some work!
Cheers.
Chris.
PS apols if it is in the wrong forum thingy.

Really? I'm sure there is one lying round here somewhere?!

[quote name='richardrickenbacker' post='782077' date='Mar 21 2010, 08:38 PM']You like the spector then??[/quote]
Yeh, but will probably take this one down!

[quote name='JMT3781' post='781590' date='Mar 21 2010, 12:41 PM']nothing majorly special.. i have a fender american deluxe jazz bass 4 string cherry burst that i won in a deal, couple of dings unfortunately, but its a nice player and the noiseless pickups sound beefy. I have a little ashdown rig too, evo 500 and abm 210.

Sorry if these offers offend you lol, but as your close i thought i may aswell ask
