cayston Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Sexy as hell...just like Paul Turner's bass!
franzbassist Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Not only my year of birth, but the neck stamp is the right month too! Given the 1966 Bass V on here at the moment as well, I am glad I have no spare money available
Norm Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Great sound, great playing & a beautiful bass, flamencito! good luck with the sale. Prost, Norm.
Jebo1 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Beautiful guitar. I was trying to value my own 66 Candy Apple Red Jazz - and this helps... It looks like a good investment for someone.

Chris Horton Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 A beautiful example of my dream bass ! Best wishes with the sale
molan Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 If the pickups are '67 then I guess that means it couldn't have been completed until 1967. Wouldn't that mean its actually a '67 bass rather than a '66?
Stacker Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 I think by '67 the Jazz had the blocks and I guess that's why a dot n bound Jazz is commonly referred to as a '66. And this is, probably, another example of how Fender had so many differently date components lying around. Looks great! GLWS.
franzbassist Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 The dots and binding necks were only made for about six months in 1966, so they are pretty rare and definitely much sought after.
lozbass Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 This just begs the question why would anybody sell such a gorgeous bass - truly one of the nicest I've ever seen on Basschat. If I wasn't selling my long-scales, I'd just sell the car and buy this. Beautiful bass, great playing - good luck!
flamencito Posted February 22, 2013 Author Posted February 22, 2013 Sure, if you look at it like this you can name it a '67, but all the (to me important) rest is typical '66. But that's why I mentioned the '67 Pickups! Thank's for all the nice comments!
molan Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Just managed to listen to the vid on a decent system - sounds fabulous!

lozbass Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 (edited) [quote name='xilddx' timestamp='1363096032' post='2008336'] Dot and bound is the sexiest of all Fender necks! [/quote] 'Couldn't agree more - if I wasn't giving up on long-scale I'd have done something stupid and bought this the day it appeared (given the recent quiet though, I suspect the bass may now be sold?)
