Man, I think I advertised this too cheap. There are a lot of PM’s. Responded to all

Wow, I think it is the same bass too. It’s a small world. Though not that many made, maybe it’s not a surprise!

I originally bought this from @molan. It’s been so long I had to check all my old emails!

Ah, this was the standard spacing on all the Jazz Updates. I quite like it myself…I think it complements the overall aesthetic.

Up for sale is my Celinder Jazz Update 4. I've had this for 12 years now. It's a great bass, and I have gigged with it plenty. Selling to...help fund another Celinder! Extremely rare model from an instrument maker who only made about 500 or so instruments. If you're looking at this advert, you probably know what it is already. If you don't, then let me direct you to a video I recorded about Celinders, featuring this bass... Specs: Ash body, birdseye maple fingerboard, and beautifully figured birdseye maple neck with blocks and binding. Jazz width nut (1.5"), 19mm string spacing at bridge. Original CP3A preamp with dip switches, JJ pickup setup. Controls are one volume per pickup and bass and treble individually on the other pots. Electrics are in full working order. Nicely shielded cavity and easy battery access. Weight 4.8 kg, or so the bathroom scales tell me. It has a clear ramp installed which is easily removed by unscrewing the pickup screws. Frets and neck in excellent order. I haven't had to adjust the truss rod for years. Strung with DR Fat Beams; they are a little dull for my taste but others would find them fine. I would suggest a string change myself though. E string is 5/64" at 12th fret going over to 4/64" at the G string 12th fret. It's a pretty low action, with nearly zero relief. It will come with a second pickguard (pictured). Happy to ship anywhere. Will ship in a generic 'soft hard case'; I never did have a case for this when it was sold to me. The price on this is £2700. Shipping to be negotiated separately on a case by case basis by location. I will entertain offers, but no trades, sadly. Pete

Bump for price drop.

Sold.

Deal pending.

My clear-out continues. It turns out that I am not a fretless person, although I have been trying. I think it's better I stick to fretted though. This is a beautiful Squier Vintage Modified Jazz. I did a lot of research before buying. This was the best bang for buck I could find in a fretless instrument. I like the ebanol fretboard so much I bought another fretted Squier that has one. It sounds a lot like another Jazz I have with a genuine ebony board. I had the fretboard levelled a year or so back to make sure I could get a good setup on it. I've given it plenty of love. Weight is 9 lbs 3 oz. on the kitchen scales. Strung with D'Addario NYXL roundwounds. They sound fantastic on this instrument. It's in great condition and everything works the way it ought - truss rod, electronics, etc. Original specs can be seen at https://www.squierwiki.com/VM-Jazz-Bass-Fretless. Reverb has this presently as £365. £309 shipped in the UK seems fairer. Pete

Aye. Import duties cut both ways…I miss shopping on European websites…

Can drop price if hard case not desired; I still have a way to ship safely.

Sold.

I am now in the process of getting the right cabling from Nuno.

Sold.

Edited prior post to correct pickup sizes - now used an electronic caliper.
