Beedster Posted September 24, 2010 Posted September 24, 2010 Dude. for some time you've been looking for a keeper Jazz Bass. this one is outstanding, so keep it! Looks great with your '72 also. I have a bit of Jazz Bass gas this evening as a BCer came over earlier with a stunning example, but I'm just about managing to resist. You're like me. a PBass man at heart with the occasional hankering for a Jazz, so just keep it for those occasional moments C PS or perhaps we should do a timeshare on it?
Clarky Posted September 24, 2010 Author Posted September 24, 2010 Actually Chris I do keep wavering on this one (I withdrew it from sale at one point after a long enjoyable playing session). I am thinking about keeping it and moving on one of my two Alembics instead to balance the books (plus I do NOT need 4 basses!) I could sell the black Alembic Spoiler very easily on Alembic Club as there are a legion of Cliff Burton fans out there who want a relatively hard-to-find black Spoiler. Thing is, I prefer playing the Spoiler to my new 5 string Alembic and I would like a right wally moving on my Alembic 5 so quickly. Aaarrgghh

Sell the bloody 5 (who needs 5 strings anyway), and keep that stunning Jazz Good luck with the audition, it's got your name on it C

LukeFRC Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 there are a number of things annoying me one- once my warwick goes (if it goes) this would be within the realms of affordability two- you keep bumping it to tempt me!

Clarky Posted September 28, 2010 Author Posted September 28, 2010 Bump purely for the purposes of irritating Luke
paulie Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 This bass is an absolute cracker. Have a bump Clarky!

grahamd Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 (edited) Fair enough mate. Might consider something else whilst this is available... Edited September 29, 2010 by grahamd
bassotaiteilija Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 I'm looking for a CS j-bass, this might be a lovely option. Would you ship to Helsinki, Finland? How much do you think it would cost? £1500 shipped, transaction with PayPal? Cheers.

I guess it would be around £70 (as that's what it cost me to ship a bass to Italy this year) but it would be at your cost, so on top of £1500 (not included!). Paypal fees (c3%) are excessive so I would want either a bank transfer or the buyer to pay the Paypal fees (c£45). Cheers! PS. As you are new to BassChat, if it helps give you more comfort I have a lot of positive feedback (click on links in my signature below) - actually too much feedback, proving I am a gear addict!

I tend to just read the forums, but since Fender Custom Shop basses are rarely available in Finland, had to register and try to make a bargain. I consider myself very trustworthy, and such qualities among others are highly appreciated. Your feedback is noted, cheers!
Clarky Posted October 1, 2010 Author Posted October 1, 2010 (edited) Yet another bump. £1500 plus post for this lovely example [attachment=60335:IMG_7265.jpg] Edited October 1, 2010 by Clarky
Clarky Posted October 2, 2010 Author Posted October 2, 2010 Sunny Saturday bump. Would include postage within UK for £1500 total - overseas posting needs to be added
