martin8708 Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) Due to a cut in wages in the new year , I am selling off some gear . I bought this off Clarky about 18 months ago as I fancied a Jazz , but I prefer the neck width of a Precision . As far as I can see , the only issue is the brass nut , I think I have a white replacement one somewhere , which I will include in the sale . There is a sizable compression ding in the lower bout of the body as per the photo . The pots and neck are dated 74 , the frets do have some wear , but the bass plays fine . I find the maple neck gives it a bit more snap +growl than the rosewood necks , but thats only my humble opinion . I am based on the Isle of Wight , I can meet in person in Lymington / Southampton / Portsmouth or possible do a day trip to London . I will post or Courier the bass too, There is no hardcase , but I can include a gig bag in the sale . This is probably one of the last 4-bolters before Fender took the leap over the cliff with the 3 -bolt neck. Cheers for Looking Martin Ps the Markbass rig is also for sale Price reduced to £1500 excl delivery , Edited February 25, 2012 by martin8708
Stag Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 Awesome bass fella, id love this but after my latest Ric shaped purchase i have no dosh! Doubt it will be here long....
Clarky Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 This came to me via Happy Jack, who IIRC got it from an Irish seller who had been playing the bass in the pubs of Ireland for many, many years. So if only basses could talk, this one would have a few stories to tell True mojo!
martin8708 Posted January 29, 2012 Author Posted January 29, 2012 Hi Clarky and Stag , thanks for the posotive comments , still for sale at the moment . Sunday morning bump
thisnameistaken Posted January 29, 2012 Posted January 29, 2012 This would be a Y.O.B. jazz for me but it's bad timing.
Clarky Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 Checking my old FS thread, it said 9.6 lb using my digital scales
martin8708 Posted February 5, 2012 Author Posted February 5, 2012 Hi Shadowalka, ( and Clarky , thanks for your help ) I have just weighted it on the bathroom digital scales and getting 4.4 Kg or 9.6 lb in old money . Its not a pre- CBS lightweight weight , but then its not a late 70's boat anchor , more middleweight . I will knock £100 of the price to sweeten the deal if your interested . ( £1500 excl delivery )
Banabas Oláh Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 Hi Martin, Do you have the 74th Fender Jazz Bass more? Cheers,Bruno
