Kempy535 Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 Very nice. I had a Bravewood Strat before and it was a lovely instrument. Good like the sale
Cairobill Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 I had a jaco clone from him (as well as an andy summers tele that I still have) and I can vouch for his jazz basses being utterly gorgeous. The one I had, had great lo mid thump, a fast skinny neck and perfect, period correct body contours. A wonderful thing.
cayston Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) I think I recognise this bass. I remember seeing it on Bravewood website about 2 years ago, and as the OP mentioned it was originally built for John Elliott himself. John mentioned that it was initially sold due to personal reasons but then he bought it back few years after that. He kept it for awhile and sold it again. If I remember correctly, the bass originally came with real vintage parts (real '64 pickguard, control plate etc.) but John removed the parts prior to the sale. If it's the same bass then the OP beat me to it as I was really interested in the bass! Cracking bass though and I'm sure it won't be here for long GLWS. Edited November 7, 2014 by cayston
Mibuuu Posted November 7, 2014 Author Posted November 7, 2014 you're right john made it for himself but sold it two years ago. I think this bass is a replica of a real fender jazz 63.
