handshaker Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 (edited) Got my US Fender Jazz Deluxe 5 string for sale. It's in overall great condition, but with a few dings at the bottom. Plays really well, and sounds great. Reason I'm selling is that I'm still learning and can't get used the 5 string neck. Want £725 ono. I'm on the Wirral, Merseyside, so it's available to be demoed etc. Collection preferred.

handshaker Posted February 5, 2012 Author Share Posted February 5, 2012 The serial is N6 xxx xxx, so I think it's 1996. Its got a 50 year anniversary sticker on the headstock as well. I'm after cash only for this thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverfoxnik Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Nice looking bass; almost identical to one I had for a few years.. Good luck with the sale! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handshaker Posted February 5, 2012 Author Share Posted February 5, 2012 I've put it on the bathroom scales and it reads 4 kg. As for the wood type, I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeBass Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 from my previous research (I have an identical twin of this bass):"1996 Fender American Deluxe V Jazz Bass Deluxe. Firstly, the double cutaway body is alder. 1995 - 1998 USA Deluxe Jazz Basses are the only ones to ever have the Ash - Alder - Ash sandwich body. this was augmented with gorgeous ash veneer on both the top and the back Another fine feature is the fingerboard, only the Five String Deluxe has Pau Ferro wood. The neck itself is maple with graphite reinforcement. The Five String Deluxe is stock with Gotoh tuners. Another feature from this period is the John Suhr designed pickups that were only featured on Jazz Basses from 1995 to 1998. If I’m not mistaken I also believe Surh had a hand in designing the preamp in this Bass. It’s a 9volt, multi-band EQ with stacked knobs. All USA Fenders made during 1996 bore a Fender 50th anniversary emblem on the back of the headstock." hope this answers some questions - awesome bass, I really like mine. Powerful sound. cheers, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

32Hz Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Hi Handshaker, I could get interested at £650. I'd need it delivered to Essex CM22 7DL in that price. How can we do the payment? we've both got zero history on this site (I joined just to send you this offer). Cheers, Tony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handshaker Posted February 10, 2012 Author Share Posted February 10, 2012 Hi Tony, I'm not going to go below £700 - my brother would snap this up at £650 as well as he's interested too. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
