lettsguitars Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 I must admit. It isn't the best add in the world. Chris assured me the sale had nothing to do with the bass itself, more the fretlessness of it. And Chris got this at cost price. I would heavily suggest that this bass is worth at least double what it is being offered for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] John, there's nothing wrong with the bass, it's the fretlessness of it. that's what is catching me out on this one. If I spent more time on this and not on my fender I'm sure I would've cracked playing it in tune this bass really is just like butter, amazing !

giblett123 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Its a fabulous bass, I picked it up in the summer deal which was half price (i'd be happy to pay full whack for one), I bought as much out of curiosity as anything, alas I'm not good enough to play a fretless though, as as bass I cant recommend them highly enough, they are sublime, if someone buys my pink jazz I'll buy another, this time with frets on it!

LukeFRC Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 You know - having thought about this... I don't play fretless, or five strings... but if I either had money or a job at the moment I would buy this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Cloud Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Insane price for a bass of this quality! I love Jon's instruments, if it didnt have the sound holes then I would buy this now. £399???? Just so cheap. Add £1000 to that and then we might have a true reflection of worth.

Phil-osopher10 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 I think the sound holes make this really stand out to me and really set it apart. Funny how people work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrederikVanDuuren Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 nice its weight? any infos on EQ? Volume/Tone i guess string spacing? scale? nr of fret-lines? just the usual infos i guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giblett123 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 This one was built for me originally so if my memory is correct........ scale length is 34", string spacing is 19mm at the bridge, passive vol + tone, weighs around the 6 1/2 lb mark, v v light and balances well, honestly can't remember how many lines it has but can remember it is a fantastic bass, Shame I didn't have the playing skills to do it justice!
