bubinga5 Posted November 4, 2010 Posted November 4, 2010 they will prob just call it the 2011 deluxe jazz... i very much doubt the spec has changed...cant see them stopping sales of the bass Quote
AndyTravis Posted November 4, 2010 Posted November 4, 2010 They aren't, can't see it at all. They're only just arriving in some shops now, i've sold 3 so far, they're great. Quote

AndyTravis Posted November 4, 2010 Posted November 4, 2010 Dawsons Manchester. We've got a Black/MN in at the minute, and we've sold a couple of the P's too. I originally sold my Marcus Miller to help buy one in Sunburst, but it'd gone through the till before i got my act together. Quote
retroman Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 So what are they like?? I keep looking at the five string model, and thinking yummy I love a Jazz bass with a rosewood board, and block markers.... Doesn't seem to be much out there on the net about them TBH Quote
Gilbert Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Discontinued!!!! Where did you hear that? I've had one on order since October 2010 and I'm not expecting it until March 2011 !!! I could go elsewhere, but I have got the right deal with the retailer and have paid a deposit. I also have it on the 17.5% VAT, not 20% as it is now. I have seen that some have started coming into the country now, but have been told that the colour options I chose/want (OW/RW) are still back logged. I really hope it's worth the money and the wait. I just cant wait for it to come. I'm sooo excited. It's the first bass I've bought over £350. I will review it once it comes and post on BassChat. Anyone else got one yet??? Quote

Jimmyp28 Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Is this whole 2010 delux thing just fender ripping off sadowsky? they look the same and the pre amp appers to be the same as well, funny really as sadowsky ripped off fender lol What does every one else think then? Quote
Grand Wazoo Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Mark at Bass Direct had one in store 3 days ago when I went there. And get this it's second hand but untouched, mint conditions, they retail at £2099.99 and he is selling for £1600 I have had a good look at it and it was perfect.

Still, it was a nice looker. Edited January 30, 2011 by EssentialTension Quote

coop1985 Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 I've seen an American Jazz Deluxe 2010 that I really like... but somebody put me off because they say that it's like buying a car... If you buy new, u lose half the value once you walk out of the shop. Does anybody agree? Or should I make the purchase? Quote
niceguyhomer Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 I say buy it and I'll give you 80% of the new value next week. Just kidding - you will lose money but it'll be a long time before these are available s/h so I'd buy it. Quote
