2x18 Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 (edited) Selling my lovely Bacchus Jazz Bass ( Passive ) The colour is actually a very nice Sea Foam Green ( the photos dont do it justice colourwise ) Its in good condition for its age and has had a recent set up and comes with a hard case! Couple of dings on body and ding on back of neck at 11th fret -- not through to wood though! Plays and sounds fantastic --definitely as good as the Fender Custom Shop Jazzes ( I recently traded mine ) Flatwound strings fitted. Any trial encouraged and welcomed - [attachment=96575:IMG_0866.JPG][attachment=96576:IMG_0864.JPG][attachment=96577:IMG_0870.JPG][attachment=96578:IMG_0871.JPG][attachment=96579:IMG_0868.JPG] Edited February 8, 2012 by 2x18
Jigster Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 hmm yep, don't think it is 80's, is it? on closer inspection of neck plate - still nice tho what year is it then?
Clarky Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 I had a sonic-blue-faded-to-seafoam-green Bacchus 62J that I sold to BC'er Steve last year. Was as good as any Fender Jazz I've tried including custom shop. Lovely bass
Machines Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 I think that serial makes it August 2000. My 2002 Venus 5 started 02 and was from 2002.

Shame I don't have money/space/need for it. Good luck with the sale
Jigster Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 how was the neck on yr old one Clarky - like a 60's width?
Clarky Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 It was an A width (1.5" nut) neck and was quite slim with really good, low action. One of the fastest necks I've ever played

But I need to thin down my large collection and I am mainly using Short scales at the Mo.
Doctor J Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Yowzers! That's a great price for a hand made bass.
