For reference, how much would the bass be [i]sans[/i] E-Pro please?

£630 without the case, £665 with the case. The case is brand new about a month old, never been out the house, neither has the bass, apart from the garden for the photos

Sound reasonable?

Cheers.

Ahh, you'd sound great with a pea shooter and a rubber band mate.

[Mike]

Well, this looks interesting. I'm going to have a think then maybe PM about a play. Whereabouts in W.London?

Ahh, PMed back. Great offer, you have a spiffing Jazz there mate!

Sadly, I think I'm after a Warwick or perhaps a Status, a modern bass with great design features.

Thanks again, greatly appreciated.

[xilddx]

Mmm, had a couple of interesting trades, but not really for me. I'm thinking my ideal highly reliable, good looking, wonderful playing bass might be a Status Mark King Standard.

Anyway, a question. If I put the original electronics back, would this bass sell more easily? is the J-Retro putting off the purists?

Cheers,
N

[xilddx]

OK, the original electronics are back in and I have uploaded brand new pics. This is all original again and the price is what it should be.

Cheers

I will be purchasing the J_Retro on my return from hols. And I am giving this a bump for the nicest flared trouser and floppy hat wearing bass player I know ... With gloves But seriously folks, Nigel's gear is top notch, so biy this beauty. I would have done if I had not already got a bwautiful Bacchus 62RI Jazz

[Clarky]

Apologies for the spelling, am on Blackberry so can barely read what I type. Basically, top guy and top bass!

That's very kind mate! Thank you

Your J-Retro 01 is packed and ready to go, cheers!

[xilddx]

Bump.

[Mike]

Ah, gutting, was interested in this with the J-retro but still trying to make a decision. Oh well - good luck with the sale

Mike, if its a deal breaker and as Nigel is a mate, I will forego the J-Retro if you want to buy the whole shooting match? Your call

John East is still among the living mate And it's the easiest thing in the world to fit if that's what you are worried about.

Clarky, that's very magnanimous of you. But the JR is promised to you and I won't go back on my word just to make a sale. If Mike really wants it, he can always buy a J-Retro. I'll fit it for him too.

Only trying to help you bag that Warwick, mate! In any case, it wouldn't be going back on your word AFAIC But let's leave things as they are then - I think the J-Retro will sound awesome on my Bacchus Jazz..

[Mike]

Ah, very kind, but please continue with your sale! I am still dithering, shillying, and shallying!

I know it's easy to fit and buy - I'll keep thinking on. Just thinking out loud really - I probably shouldn't have posted!

It's the pretty colours, they dazzle, they delight! But it's just a Fender Jazz Bass really, albeit a great playing, great sounding, great looking, beautifully made Fender Jazz Bass.
