ash Posted March 27, 2017 Posted March 27, 2017 (edited) A lovely Jazz bass that I got in a recent trade. Really superb bass with maple board and satin neck. Classic tort pickguard and sunburst finish. The bass comes in its original case with tags, trussrod tool, keys and owners manual. The bass weighs around 3.8kgs and plays and sounds as a US Jazz ought to. I'm selling because I just don't get in with the narrow nut width no matter how I try. I'm not interested in trades sorry and I'd prefer collection if possible on this. It's got one tiny ding on the back of the body. Otherwise excellent condition. Edited April 7, 2017 by ash
Chiliwailer Posted March 27, 2017 Posted March 27, 2017 Looks just like mine, when these are good they are GREAT. It easily stands up to anything I've ever owned. GLWTS
ash Posted March 27, 2017 Author Posted March 27, 2017 It's a beauty but I just keep going back to my Precisions.
Quatschmacher Posted March 27, 2017 Posted March 27, 2017 Where are all the post-2012 Oly white/rosewood ones? Good luck with the sale.
ash Posted March 29, 2017 Author Posted March 29, 2017 (edited) Sorry it's not Olympic white it is however a very lovely sunburst with a fantastic neck and light weight! Just to state again no trades. Thanks. Edited March 29, 2017 by ash
ash Posted March 30, 2017 Author Posted March 30, 2017 I know sadly not for me Alain - the nicest Jazz I've played but I can't get into the nut width. But I'm glad I have had the opportunity to spend time with a US Jazz again!
Quatschmacher Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Would a jazz body with a P neck suit you? I want to pair a P body with a Jazz neck. Maybe we could both benefit.
ash Posted March 30, 2017 Author Posted March 30, 2017 No sorry I have three Precisions I could swap with but I'm not a fan of 'bitsa' basses. The alternative would be a Status P bass neck to avoid this but I think if I went down this route I'd look for a custom body rather than wreck/tamper with a nice totally original bass such as this!
ash Posted April 5, 2017 Author Posted April 5, 2017 Price drop £820 and trade type bump as I would consider a trade for a similar age and condition Fender US Precision or US Hotrod PJ configured Precision preferably with maple board and a similar weight. No other trades. Thanks!
