Raslee Posted December 8, 2010 Posted December 8, 2010 (edited) I'm selling the neck off this [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=81287&hl="]bass [/url] as i replaced it with a fretted one and i cannot see me doing fretless for a while. Despite it having the decal of Fretless Jazzbastard it is in fact a Precision profile. It is a beautiful neck and i think 24 fret i.e. the fretboard comes slightly over the scratchplate. Fits Fender. Tuners not included, although i think i have some other old ones that i can throw in somewhere.

Beedster Posted December 8, 2010 Posted December 8, 2010 I've been after a lined fretless Precision neck for about as long as I can remember. There's the slight chance my fretless playing might be close to pitch now! Cheers Rasta old chap! Chris
lemmywinks Posted December 8, 2010 Posted December 8, 2010 Absolute bargain for a Warmoth neck, good score Beedster!

I've since learned to live with dots in the wrong place now, so this neck is a godsend for recording. A weird thing I've noticed over the last couple of years is that a far greater percentage of fretless Jazz necks are lined than are fretless Precision necks, so I'm pleased to have finally found one. Rasta, to be honest, I think you've under-priced this substantially, so if you're starting to think the same, I'm happy to negotiate a little, it's bloody annoying when you offer something for sale, it sells really quickly and then everyone posts responses along the lines "wow, that was cheap"! Cheers Chris
Raslee Posted December 8, 2010 Author Posted December 8, 2010 (edited) Haha i'm clueless, how much do think it should be? Just an update Sold for £125!!! What a lovely place this is. Thanks matey Edited December 8, 2010 by Rasta

Edited December 8, 2010 by LawrenceH
lemmywinks Posted December 8, 2010 Posted December 8, 2010 Very gracious of you there Beedster, good lad! Warmoth necks aint cheap, they still charge $80 extra for a lined fretless neck, but they are fantastic quality. Used prices are pretty bad though as i found out when trying to flog mine - it took about a year!

I don't care where the neck came from. I just stated £125 is nice price for such neck... Warmoth parts are superb!

I did a quick survey of sold-for prices before arriving at a decent offer to Rasta). But in terms of bang for buck, £125 for this neck is a great price. Cheers C

Good score. I love warmoths, Somehow I ended up with three of them, two jazzes and one P. They absolutely rule!!!
Beedster Posted February 15, 2011 Posted February 15, 2011 I hope Rasta doesn't mind me using his thread, but the project for which I bought this neck is no longer going to happen, so if anyone wants it for what I paid (ovno), £125, feel free to drop me a PM. It really is a very nice bit of wood. I'll also trade for a decent rack mount reverb or a decent small diaphragm condenser mic Cheers C
