ash Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 (edited) I bought this lovely Jazz off here last week, its a fantastic bass absolutely superb to play and in excellent condition but I confess I'm more of a Precision man these days. Originally this was for a trade but now its for sale as I have found a nice P bass however I am still interested in a maple neck MIJ or USA. The bass is through body strung a nice light/medium weight with good balance. It's also very red and has a 'parchment' scratchplate, all original and includes strap locks & gigbag. There are a few light marks and dings but nothing nasty or unsightly. Action is super low and the neck is really fast albeit too slim for my tastes. The serial dates it to 2000/2001. It is the pre S1 switching model. This is now for sale for what I paid for it and it really is a bargain at £500 . Edited May 1, 2012 by ash
waynepunkdude Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 I only have a MIM P and have no money to put to it but that is a classic bass.
ash Posted April 21, 2012 Author Posted April 21, 2012 Yep in the words of the late Frank Carson It's a cracker!
ash Posted April 23, 2012 Author Posted April 23, 2012 I will ship within the UK of course but at the buyer's expense, we are talking £30 incl. insurance for parcelforce 24 which still makes this USA Jazz a bargain!
ash Posted April 25, 2012 Author Posted April 25, 2012 Up - would still consider trade for the right P Bass. This is a great bass in excellent playing and cosmetic condition don't be put off by the price I'm just selling it for what I paid for it when purchased from a member of this forum.
bubinga5 Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 USA Fender Jazz for 500 squid... total bargain...!!!

ash Posted April 25, 2012 Author Posted April 25, 2012 Thanks for the encouragement bubinga5! I keep being asked for trades - I'm not interested in amps or effects sorry. Things I'd consider are a US or MIJ maple fingerboard Precision, Gibson Grabbers, T Bass, or my old Fender Musicmaster Bass (OK its a long shot but.....cream with a dark oblong patch on the front/top left S718899 - I think!!!) NB I'm not after any other Musicmasters just my old one . No other trades thanks!
ash Posted April 30, 2012 Author Posted April 30, 2012 Bumping this again as I still have a hankering for a maple fingerboard Precision MIJ or USA. More pics on request this is a gorgeous Jazz in a rare colour.
