Gone thank you.Cataldo JAEbird, white. Fender bird F/S,F/T, US, custom make.

[karlfer]

Would like to sell this.
Change in circumstances, larger than expected VAT bill
As a result, this Fenderbird has to reluctantly go . If this one doesn't go, it may have to be my DJ4 . Either way, before November 28th.
Please be aware it has quite a few little dinks that have taken paint off, as well as some little dents that haven't taken paint off. Sorry, the photos are as good as my phone gets, in my hands
The following link is from their website, the white one is the same as mine. They are about £1100+ to import [url="http://cataldobasses.com/"]http://cataldobasses.com/[/url]
Comes with hardcase, price . NOW £600 collected, £630 insured courier.
Bank transfer or cleared cheque. Sorry, NO PAINPal and UK only.
If somebody is desperate for this bass, but has no money, I MAY consider a trade with a Fender of around the same value, as I should be able to move it on quckly. PLEASE, nobody tempt me with a US Precision Deluxe, or I will be back to square one /
Any questions please fire away. Please check my feedback, link near bottom of post.
Cheers,
Karl.

Many thanks, I know the JV's are very highly regarded, but UK only I'm afraid.

And cheers Wooks79

The blue one that is up has attracted a lot of interest. It started off at £850, however it is mint.
Mine has a few chips and dints so I think £650 is more than fair. Yet virtually no interest?
Please buy this so I don't have to put my Lakland DJ4 up or sale

Is it defo a P-bass profile? Looks almost Jazz-like, though that could be camera angles causing that.

42 mm, not quite 50's width but very definitely Precision. Don't take any notice of my photos, I haven't got a clue . Thankfully my feedback helps a little.
Now for sale only I'm afraid, just landed a higher vat bill than expected

Further PM's replied. Ryan and Martyn, both VERY tempting offers, thank you.

[bengovier182]

These any good for slap bass?
I imagine this would play more like a gibson with that bridge design, or maybe an old style precision.

Sorry Ben, I can't answer that, I have never learnt or played slap style. Might be an idea to ask TommyK who is selling his. He may have tried slap on his?
The bridge is better, IMO, than the 3 point Gibson ones. Bit like Warwick bridges?
Cheers,
Karl.

I can indeed confirm these are perfectly slappable. Sounds great on that back P'up
+ Have a Bump Karl.. This looks great in white..

No, they are on the Custom, so I don't owe you any license fee

Thanks for the info Tommy, good luck with yours!
