james Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 (edited) Hi for sale is my custom made Jazz bass body with Sadowsky electronics bad ass bridge and a [s]1972[/s] 1975 Fender Jazz neck. The body was made by Shane Haigh of HaighGuitars in 2004 swamp ash and AAAA quilted maple top. The bass sounds fantastic and is in very good condition with 1 or 2 dings in the body but nothing to complain about. The back of the headstock signed by Marcus Miller.

Grangur Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 If I print off all the pics and stick them together like a jig-saw can i then get to see the whole effect of the bass? As you've not taken a good, full on pic of the body I think we can assume it's badly scratched in the parts we can't see. Is this right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james Posted September 13, 2013 Author Share Posted September 13, 2013 Hi all after removing the neck( first time in 9 years) to have a look at the neck stamp and looking on the internet to work out what it meant I have found out it's a 1975 neck NOT a 1972 as described. I apologize for this but i was on the understanding that the last number was the year (true for stamps 65-73) the stamp date is ; 0201 2453 02- Jazz Bass 01- Roaswood 24- Week 5 - Year 75 3 - Day (Wednesday) sorry for any misleading not my intention.
