BassBod Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 Any interest in a trade...fretless Fender jazz bitser (early 70's neck, plain rosewood board, on a stripped 90's re-issue body)? I'm in Bristol, so a try out would be easy cheers BB
greenolive Posted March 9, 2012 Author Posted March 9, 2012 Hi bassbod sorry but I'm looking for a straight sale , I've got to cut down plus i would be hopeless on a fretless! thanks for the interest though
BassBod Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 No worries...things are slow, but good stuff still sells.....
molan Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Is this the one that was at Bass Direct for a while? Used to belong to Loz?
pierreganseman Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 it was at the gallery for a while too amazing bass
lozbass Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 'Used to be mine - absolutely fantastic neck, super-slim and beautifully figured. I think Pierre's right, I'm pretty sure I sold via the Gallery
greenolive Posted March 10, 2012 Author Posted March 10, 2012 Yeah you're right guys I bought via the gallery and was at bass direct for a while , was almost sold too , but had a change of heart sad that I don't play it much now , so has to go I'm sure I'm going to regret though!

karlfer Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 I have just noticed this ad. This bass was made for me by Martin thoughout the summer of 2001, arriving in the November of that year. It was passive with a normal BBOT bridge, so the Badass and pre amp have been added since I sold it to Lawrence in 2009. When I commissioned this bass I had a superb job paying £50k+ PA and it was a lifetime treat to myself. That job went with an aggressive takeover, "We have our own area management sonny, shut the door on your way out". I sold it to Lawrence for £800 as I could get no interest in it at the time and financially we were in sh*t street. He was the only buyer, I was desperate. Now me and the Mrs have a master franchise with a greetings card company, working with 10 (11 from next week) franchisees. Life is better, but I will always miss this bass. The point of this sob story? Buy this bass, IT IS PHENOMINAL!
greenolive Posted April 17, 2012 Author Posted April 17, 2012 (edited) thanks karlfer you sure know how to request a bass to made! quite ironic really as i prefer passive basses and very rarely use the active eq price d r o p Edited April 17, 2012 by greenolive
lozbass Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 To add a few more pieces to the jigsaw, as Karlfer says, I bought this in the early part of 2009 (I think), had a fair bit of work done to it, rehearsed it heavily and gigged it once. I don't remember having either a Badass or Bart circuit fitted - I thought that the bridge and active were in place when I purchased the bass. From memory, I think I sold the bass via the Gallery - it went with some minor mods and a very nice bag (I'm not sure if I recovered my total outlay - probably not, it's a habit of mine). I can confirm that the bass plays absolutely beautifully - it has the nicest J neck (alongside my old J necked Celinder P) that I've ever used. John at the Gallery remarked on the quality of the neck when I took the bass in for a sale. This is a lovely instrument at a very good price.
karlfer Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 OK, so why on earth would I check my facts before banging my gums . Apologies Lawrence, having checked some old photo's, the Badass is original, and the rotary nearest the neck was, in for active, out for passive. The only difference I can see from when I had it commissioned is it had 4 chrome rotaries, not 3 black plastic Jazz, 1 chrome. As our younger brethren appear to say, My Bad . Fantastic bass. Karl.
jamie_k11 Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 Id snap it up if it was a maple fingerboard.. :/
