Raslee Posted May 25, 2008 Posted May 25, 2008 (edited) Hi, just recently purchased a 75 reissue so old faithful and the cricket bat has to go! ***********NEW PHOTO'S ADDED - GOTO TO BOTTOM OF PAGE AND CLICK ON LINKS, or try these below if they work************************ [url="http://picasaweb.google.com/Mr.LeeStone/FenderJazz"]http://picasaweb.google.com/Mr.LeeStone/FenderJazz[/url] [url="http://picasaweb.google.com/Mr.LeeStone/Hohner"]http://picasaweb.google.com/Mr.LeeStone/Hohner[/url] Fender Jazz, 4 string, 2004, Sunset Translucent Orange (you can see the Ash wood grain through the colour, more like a red colour than orange IMO..very pretty though!), American Series - Ash body, Rosewood neck, S1 switching, Fender Case and fender warranty and tools etc...a few gig dings but nothing that takes away character, kept as standard with no modifications as it doesn't need any...this bass sounds beautiful which is why i bought this one in the first place over several other Jazzes that i tried!...condition wise i'd say 9/10. can email morer pics if your interested, just PM your email address. £425 + P&P (i assume about £25) (Cost £850 back in 2004 - Mansons Exeter) Hohner B2AV 5 string, bit like a Steinberger. Headless and small, Phat sound particularly suited to reggae, trip hop, drum n bass, heavy rock and phat fonk. Emg select pick ups, active and passive, has a cool red LED light when in active mode, very light, Synapse hook purchased from Steinberger to help the bass balance and sit better (this is removable), this is a quality small bass with a large sound....you will not be dissappointed, Colour Mahogany condition 8.5/10 (has a small little scratch top of neck) £200 + P&P (i assume about £10-£15 ish) (Cost £375 back in 2005) See attached cheesey gig pictures of these basses. Could be interested in a trade for an EDEN WT550/ Metro/world series or AMPEG SVT 3 or 4 amp or an AMPEG 8x10 (Cash either way....pending Wifeys approval) PM me for any further info or questions etc, leave your email too as i repond better to these. I am away at a festival next few days so i'll reply upon my return if i haven't already (and if i do a festi runner and become a full time Hare Chrishna you wont here from me at all) - All the best (The bass for sale is the red one btw in the pic, because of the light you can't see the decal but of course it is there...all normal! I alos have the original white pickguard which i'll throw in and a special made black one with a lion picture on for the reggae, optional if you want that one ) Edited June 13, 2008 by Rasta
Jase Posted May 25, 2008 Posted May 25, 2008 Agree with you on the new Fenders not really needing any mods, kept mine stock too!
cd_david Posted May 25, 2008 Posted May 25, 2008 Hi Beautiful basses mate, Is the jazz on the right a stock fender its gorgeous. Thanks Dave
thisnameistaken Posted May 25, 2008 Posted May 25, 2008 I used to have one of those Hohners - it was great! I'd turn up to gigs with it, have all the other bands laughing at me while I set up, and watched their jaws drop as soon as they heard it.
Raslee Posted May 25, 2008 Author Posted May 25, 2008 (edited) Cheers for the comments bass brethrens, yeah Dave the bass on the right is my new bass 75 Reissue USA model...it's a 1998 model....great bass but i think the 2004 has a better sound...but the reissue has the looks i've always wanted and the quality is astounding. Thinking of upgradin the PU's in the reissue to some Villex as i heard they're good for reggae. Will be sad to see the 2004 go but as i borrowed money of the wifey for the reissue....well you know the drill! The Hohner too is a great bass, love it lots and it'll be sadly missed but i have the reissue and a Laky 5 so i am more than spoilt these days! If no takers by roughly a week today then they'll be on the bay. Cheers, Rasta Edited May 27, 2008 by Rasta
Raslee Posted May 28, 2008 Author Posted May 28, 2008 Pre off to off Festi bump...Fender now £425 for any takers for when i'm back and Hohner still up for grabs, although had a few emails bout that one-cheers....back next week. Irie
Smash Posted May 28, 2008 Posted May 28, 2008 Great price for that US Jazz and a colour that you don't see that often, any close up pictures?

Raslee Posted June 11, 2008 Author Posted June 11, 2008 (edited) FENDER JAZZ Hi folks, in reply to the emails i have received i have added extra photo's, also i have put the original scratchplate on as requested but the red tortoiseshell will also be included in the sale. The action is set to very low, but can be adjusted if requested. The current strings are flatwounds (as i play reggae), but i have some spare Elites round wounds i can throw in too. My apols for the picture quality of the pictures, i have a crap camera and am in a bit of a rush at the mo! I saw the same bass at PMT in Birmingham at the weekend just gone for £875!!! Get a bargain - sounds bloody beautiful too, better than my other jazzes! HOHNER Pictures as requested, although my apolos again as i have not had chance to clean the dust of the bass, it's been in the cupboard for a month or so....shame on me! but its a great bass!
