Riddler Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 (edited) Hi All [color=#ff0000][b]PRICE DROP - Now £675 ono[/b][/color] [b]US Fender Jazz Deluxe with Sadowsky's [/b] Here’s my Fender American Jazz deluxe 4 string built in approx 1998, in burgundy with a rosewood fingerboard. It has all the usual extras that come with a deluxe like through-body stringing, slightly smaller, lighter body, 22 frets, really slim neck, light hipshot tuners (but with a Fender badge!), strap locks, fitted case etc etc. The main improvement is that the standard Fender active pickups and pre-amp have been replaced with the far superior Sadowsky [url="https://secure.sadowsky.com/store/index.php?cPath=43_44&osCsid=ab74db14b79e54a18685af592f4c7d91"]pickups[/url] and the Sadowsky VTC (Vintage Tone Control) [url="https://secure.sadowsky.com/store/product_info.php?products_id=64&osCsid=ab74db14b79e54a18685af592f4c7d91"]preamp[/url]. As you’ll see from the links the pups and preamp are a fairly costly addition. I'm not sure if the pup's are the single coil or the hum cancelling ones I'm afraid. (how can I tell?) I bought the guitar 2nd hand from GAK (in Brighton) a couple of years ago where I tried it against a brand new deluxe and the sound of the Sadowsky's was way better, the mid range blend knob is particularly useful. You can switch to passive mode should you wish to (can't see the point really!). In active mode it gives a thunderous low end and a bright top end and the mid range blend gives loads of control over the middle frequencies. It really needs to be heard to be appreciated so I’m quite happy for anyone to come to my gaff and give it try if you’re in the Brighton area Now the down side! There are a couple of 'biggish' dings on the body (see photos) and a couple of 'cymbal dents' on the headstock that were done by the previous owner, but they are only cosmetic, the neck is fine. GAK are selling these for about £1300 new (without the Sadowsky's of course) so I'm looking for [color=#ff0000]£675 ono[/color]. I’d prefer pickup from Brighton but can deliver or meet up to exchange or deliver by courier for approx. £30 (I’ll confirm the exact cost if required). I'll throw in a new set of Stadium Elites if I get near that desired price! [b]Please don’t be embarrassed to make me an offer or ask any questions.[/b] I’m also open to trades on cabs, especially on [b]Aguilar or Barefaced[/b] Thanks for looking More photos on Dropbox [url="https://www.dropbox.com/gallery/48981576/1/Jazz%20Bass?h=0e6da3"]https://www.dropbox....20Bass?h=0e6da3[/url] Cheers Graham Edited February 16, 2012 by Riddler
