Heathy Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 (edited) Mrs Heath's strict 'one in-one out' policy dictates that I need to part with my American Standard Jazz Bass (known as Bill). The bass is in 3 tone sunburst, with a maple fingerboard and S1 switch. It was bought new from the Bass Centre in 2003. It can now be yours for[b] £575[/b] (no trades I’m afraid). As you can see from the pictures the bridge pickup has been replaced with a Fender Deluxe precision pickup. As this was my main bass for some years, it has also picked up some knocks along the way (pictured), however, there is nothing that affects the playability. The original moulded hard case, and original pickup are both included. I would prefer buyer collection if possible (I am based in mid Essex). Alternatively, please can you arrange a courier.

karlfer Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Steve is an absolute gent to deal with. Some superb mods to make this an excellent, versatile gigging bass. Somebody needs to treat themselves sharpish, good luck Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heathy Posted February 19, 2016 Author Share Posted February 19, 2016 All PMs responded to. Here are answers to the questions raised: [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The pickup was professionally installed at Trevor Durrant guitars in Colchester (no longer there). The Facebook page for the guy who did it is here & it shows lots of examples of his work:[/font][/color] [url="https://www.facebook.com/pipdabassman?fref=ts"]https://www.facebook...bassman?fref=ts[/url] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The controls are still V V T.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The operation of the S1 switch is not affected by the replacement pickup.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The weight is around the 9lb mark.
