[/quote][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]not really....doesn't have to be a bass...[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]try me...[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I'm only selling as I already have 3 jazz basses : a 4, a 5, and a fretless which are my 3 working basses. Not absolutely worried about flogging it as its a great bass to have lying around (although could do with the cash - who couldn't). it really is a pleasure to play and really does have that vintage sound which is why I got it in the 1st place.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Great build. I can't really see any difference between this and the USA reissues except the price. I had a USA Jaco artist bass which I sold on here not too long ago. I've toyed with the idea of defrettiing this, it would be as good I reckon.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I wouldn't mind a 70's reissue instead of this. That's only because my very first pro bass was a 71 Fender Jazz with block inlays, and that's purely for nostalgic reasons, nothing more.

[/quote]£450 plus post, not inclusive, i think its already quite cheap - unless I hang on to the ashtrays and sell em seperately, then you have a deal. BTW, would prefer offers of this type to be discussed privately rather than in the public arena - probably just me..but..
