thisnameistaken Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 FWIW I sold something similar - a natural/tort USA Jazz stock but with a maple/mop Allparts '70s neck on it - for £400 here late last year, it went pretty quickly so maybe it was a bit cheap, but I think without a genuine Fender neck the price tends to plummet a bit. Also I tend to find that when you add items like after-market pickups and tuners they don't really add value to the bass - you might be as well replacing the stock Fender stuff and selling the other bits separately.
Higgie Posted January 18, 2012 Author Posted January 18, 2012 (edited) Thanks for the info. I guess you're right - No matter how much better the parts may be, it's just not all original. Final price drop to £545 ONO, I'll just withdraw it if it goes any lower than that. It's not worth taking that big a hit on such a good bass - I'm only trying to raise funds for another bass after all. Cheers Edited February 18, 2012 by Higgie
LawrenceH Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 I am really surprised this is still here tbh, those clips do a great job of showcasing a killer sound!
Higgie Posted January 18, 2012 Author Posted January 18, 2012 Thanks Lawrence, me too. It's such a great bass, but the fact is my Shuker gets the gigs I need a Jazz for because it has an extra fret and I prefer the feel of the neck. I wouldn't be selling if I could afford the 5 string I want to buy.
thisnameistaken Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Yeah it is a great sounding jazz I agree. Nice playing always helps, good job man.
Higgie Posted January 18, 2012 Author Posted January 18, 2012 Thanks Gub, that's going straight into my PJB Bass Buddy, and out of that into Logic. TNIT, Thanks
Higgie Posted January 19, 2012 Author Posted January 19, 2012 Getting virtually 100 views a day but still not gone. Tempted to part this out. Any interest in the bits?
Higgie Posted February 27, 2012 Author Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) Would also include a mint and unused (not even drilled) Moses Graphite Neck for £690. So you have a US Fender Jazz body with String thru Body bridge, upgraded Dimarzio pickups, with a choice of either a Maple or Graphite neck, with Hipshot tuners and a Detuner, for under £700. If that's not value for money I don't know what is!! Edited February 27, 2012 by Higgie
Higgie Posted March 23, 2012 Author Posted March 23, 2012 If they come to pick it up I'd be happy to give them a lesson free of charge
Higgie Posted March 28, 2012 Author Posted March 28, 2012 Bump and price drop this week only £510 shipped.
Higgie Posted June 3, 2012 Author Posted June 3, 2012 Could really do with some cash. £500 shipped. £650 with brand new Moses graphite neck and mounting kit, never been drilled.
Higgie Posted June 4, 2012 Author Posted June 4, 2012 Pics added bump. Would also be willing to split if there's enough interest in the bits!
Higgie Posted June 5, 2012 Author Posted June 5, 2012 Fender US quality Jazz for 500 quid shipped anyone?
Higgie Posted June 12, 2012 Author Posted June 12, 2012 Can't believe no one wants a nice jazz at a ridiculous price bump.
