Sharkfinger Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 (edited) Up for sale is my lovely Jazz. A fine instrument, far beyond its 'budget' label, in terms of quality. It also has excellent wilkinson hardware as standard: the wilkinson jazz pickups are just amazing. The neck width is also a little wider than a regular jazz, almost precision. I really like that and it's more comfortable to play than you might think. Bought a couple of months ago off eBay out of curiosity. Haven't had a jazz for a while and wanted to have another go. Okay, I'm hooked again. Unfortunately, this beauty is too heavy for me to play for any length of time with my neck problems. I was hoping that the better balance afforded by the extended upper horn would not aggravate my neck pain but unfortunately, this is not so. By no means a heavy bass: about 4.4kg, just too heavy for me. I've since built a lightweight jazz, so this must now go. Want back what I paid for it, which was[b] [s]£120[/s][/b] [b]£110.[/b] Would prefer collection/meetup from Enfield, Herts or Essex but could courier for an extra £15. Managed to find the original eBay listing and pinch the photos, most of which are pretty good. It's in exactly the same condition. EDIT: Forgot to mention that there's a couple of small dings along the top edge. Nothing serious and hasn't chipped the finish. Not visible from the front.

oldslapper Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Highly recommend these. Wilkinson hardware and electrics all round. Lovely looking too. Best wishes with the sale.
Sharkfinger Posted February 18, 2013 Author Posted February 18, 2013 [quote name='ivansc' timestamp='1361196713' post='1982541'] Is it really THAT pink? [/quote] No, it's actually a 'vintage' white. Point taken though....
Sharkfinger Posted February 23, 2013 Author Posted February 23, 2013 First (and probably only) price drop. Not really in a hurry to sell this. Come and get a truly quality bass.
Sharkfinger Posted February 23, 2013 Author Posted February 23, 2013 Just a though.... Would be willing to trade + cash adjustment for lightweight tuners . 11/16" (traditional size) peg holes.
Sharkfinger Posted March 11, 2013 Author Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) Would actually consider trading this for an MM style (OLP maybe?) or a lightweight Ibanez. Edited March 11, 2013 by Sharkfinger
