funkle Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 (edited) 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 Edited June 2, 2008 by funkle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 its the battery compartement routed to the control area (probably bad tech terms, but sure you get me) and piezo pickup system?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkle Posted May 3, 2008 Author Share Posted May 3, 2008 (edited) [quote name='BassManKev' post='191247' date='May 3 2008, 03:19 PM']its the battery compartement routed to the control area (probably bad tech terms, but sure you get me) and piezo pickup system??[/quote] 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!
