Hi all.

I'm selling my fretless - many of you will remember me selling this Fender 2001 MIM Jazz Bass with Status Graphite unlined Jazz neck in [topic="15780"]another thread[/topic]. However, there have been some changes which necessitate re-listing:

1. It now has the piezo pickup system and straplocks removed, and
2. the price has now dropped to £400, which is what I paid for it (bought from martthebass).

Full specs are now as follows:

Body: Electron Blue colour, poplar
Neck: Graphite, Status, Jazz profile
Pickups: MIM
Controls: front PU vol, rear PU vol, tone
Strung with TI Jazz Flats

There are one or two dings on the body, and there are a couple on the headstock (see photos), but cosmetically it is stunning. Especially with the mirror pickguard (although I'll ship it with the original white one also). The photos are very high-res so you can have a detailed look at its condition.

It now has a battery compartment in situ, for anyone who might want to consider a preamp.

As I said before, it's great instrument, but I'm not much of a fretless player. Very happy to ship it to wherever it is desired.

Thanks all.

Pete

its the battery compartement routed to the control area (probably bad tech terms, but sure you get me)

The battery cavity is not routed continuously with the main control compartment, but is separate and has a nice Gotoh batery box in there. The leads run through a channel to the main control cavity; they're still nestling in there at the moment!

The piezo pickup system is removed - I couldn't recoup the costs of selling it with this bass, so I'm going to install it on a different one instead.

Hope that helps!

Dude, if I only had the money... free bump comin' your way!

I'm currently looking for a fretless bass, jazz-type, to upgrade and work on. Let me know if you've still got it over the summer.

Cheers...

Thanks for the kind words. I may move it onto eBay soon though if there's no firm takers here...

Sadly, correct. I'm wondering about having a Shuker made (like just about everyone else on this forum) and I could use the dosh :)
