SpinalTap Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 I thought about this for a while this summer, and came to the conclusion that I'm gonna sell my Celinder J Classic 4. I ordered this bass in 2006, and arrived in september 2007. I owned 30+ basses, and several Celinders, but this one is very special. Never thought I would sell it, but after the purchase of a 1960 Fender jazz bass, the Celinder lost it's #1 spot. Briefly thought about converting it into fretless, but that it would be a shame to start messing with such a beautifull instrument. Celinder J Classic 4 Alder Body in Shoreline Gold. Birdseye maple neck with matching headstock Amazing Braz. rosewood fretboard with claydots Comes with vintage white and black pickguard and orginal case. Alleva Coppollo single coil pickups. ($250,- upgrade) I live in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. You are more than welcome to pick the bass up, and test it in advance (easyjet. Ryanair) but shiping is no problem. [b] (Edit 26th of october) This bass is back up for sale because I've seen a fretless I really like. I'm putting this bass up for 2950 GBP/ 3350euro's, that is 1500,- less than a new one, and you don't have to wait a few years!!

Rayman Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 I said it last time I saw the pictures of this bass, that's the sexiest bass I've ever seen, period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schnozzalee Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 And the player lives up to the bass! Hear the audio clip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpinalTap Posted September 15, 2010 Author Share Posted September 15, 2010 Thank you all for the very nice replies. As I orderd the bass myself it is especially good to see that everybody likes it so much! About the weight. It is a moderate weight bass. Much lighter than all these Celinder J Updates of 11+ pounds. I can't measure it precise, but it will be around 4-4.5 kg/ 9.5 lbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P-T-P Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Wow. My jaw actually dropped at how stunning that bass is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpinalTap Posted September 16, 2010 Author Share Posted September 16, 2010 Thank you very much mister Wombat and P-T-P! If I was looking for a vintage Jazz for a good price, I would certainly purchase Wombatbat's 1966 Fender. With the original white pickguard, it is the perfect bass for a refinish in custom colour!

SpinalTap Posted September 17, 2010 Author Share Posted September 17, 2010 Hope I replied to all the PM's. and a bump for a partitial trade list! Althrough I prefer a straight sale, so I can purchase/ order another bass, I will seriously consider partitial trades: 4 or 5 strings, fretless or fretted: Fender Jazz (clones: Sadowsky. Alleva, Celinder Atelier Z etc.) Stingray NS Design EUB A nice amp like DB750, Bergantino. Could consider a straight trade for something like a Fodera. Just let me know what you have.

99ster Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 That is stunning. So funky! Wish I could justify buying this! How's the restoration going of the '60 Jazz Rory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpinalTap Posted September 17, 2010 Author Share Posted September 17, 2010 Hi Jim! Actually, I just played it the last couple of months. Hope to do the refinish next month, and have it back before the end of the year. Will keep you updated, when I have some pictures of the restoration.
