Pestie Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 (edited) This is an excellent unmarked American Special Jazz Bass in a lovely 3 tone sunburst. It is a 2011 model but looks and feels like new, I can't find a mark on it anywhere. It has a lovely low action with no fret buzz, rattles, flat spots, the neck is really, really nice and it sounds and plays as good as it looks. I am only selling because I want to have a go at a 5 string and something has to go so that I can buy one, I have my eye on one now so this has to go. I have replaced the original white scratch plate with a nice Tortie one, the holes are the same so no additional holes in the body. It looks so much better like this! It has an as new Thoman hard case and the original white scratch plate so you can choose the look you want! I live near Chipping Norton and you are more than welcome to come and try it and have a cuppa and a chat. Thanks for looking Mike (Pestie) [b]I'M NOT LOOKING FOR ANY TRADES THANKS.[/b] [url="http://s1283.photobucket.com/user/Mikevickers1/media/FenderSpecialJazz001_zpsbce5293c.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1283.photobucket.com/user/Mikevickers1/media/FenderSpecialJazz002_zpsd5e47684.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1283.photobucket.com/user/Mikevickers1/media/FenderSpecialJazz003_zps3218b3c6.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s1283.photobucket.com/user/Mikevickers1/media/FenderSpecialJazz004_zpscaf06114.jpg.html"][/url] Edited November 28, 2014 by Pestie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pestie Posted October 6, 2014 Author Share Posted October 6, 2014 Just to say I am willing to consider a trade for a nice light weight 5 string, for example Ibanez Soundgear depending on the model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
