Son of the Wear Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 (edited) [size=4][font=Calibri][color=#000000]2006 (Z6 serial) Fender Jazz with S1 switch. Maple neck. Comes with the Fender hard case.[/color][/font] [font=Calibri][color=#000000][attachment=254561:IMGP6107.JPG][/color][/font] [font=Calibri][color=#000000]I got this in a trade with doctorbass on Basschat a couple of years ago but the time has come for me to move it on: have decided to give up playing and so I am not interested in trades.[/color][/font] [font=Calibri][color=#000000]Very good condition – when I bought it doctorbass was very clear about condition and said “Its got one very small ding on the top front edge of the headstock and a tiny one on the back of the neck which is one of those you can feel if you are looking for it and lightly run a finger over it.” I have checked it over and can’t find any other knocks or dings anywhere – and the ones Mark mentions are very minor.[/color][/font] [font=Calibri][color=#000000]I don’t have scales but I would rate it as mid-weight: sorry if that isn’t too helpful – I will see if I can track down some scales to give a better idea.[/color][/font] [font=Calibri][color=#000000]When I got it the action was very low: I have raised it a bit (largely because I am cack-handed and a slightly higher action helps....) but it is still fairly low - and I am sure it could be lowered again if you prefer[/color][/font] [font=Calibri][color=#000000]I have never been sure what colour this is – it is a kind of subtle silvery/grey with just a hint of green – depending on the light. No doubt someone out there with greater knowledge than me can help out![/color][/font][/size] [font=Calibri][size=3][color=#000000]It has straplocks and a strap (!) and a few bits of case candy.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Calibri][size=3][color=#000000]Photos are available – (see link) and if you want any more, just let me know and I will email them[/color][/size][/font] [url="https://imgbox.com/gallery/edit/OjqIXpTqB5/6062p629vvjAb8Sh"][font=Calibri][size=3][color=#0000ff]https://imgbox.com/gallery/edit/OjqIXpTqB5/6062p629vvjAb8Sh[/color][/size][/font][/url] [font=Calibri][size=3][color=#000000]Let me know if you have any questions – happy to add info if it is needed.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Calibri][size=3][color=#000000]Neil[/color][/size][/font] Edited September 29, 2017 by Son of the Wear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom1946 Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 did you find the weight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of the Wear Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 I haven't tracked down any suitable scales yet - will do my best to get an accurate weight as sooon as I can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of the Wear Posted October 2, 2017 Author Share Posted October 2, 2017 Managed to borrow some scales. Can't vouch for their accuracy but the bass came up as 9.1 lbs. I would class it as mid-weight - not really light but not too heavy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Son of the Wear Posted February 8, 2018 Author Share Posted February 8, 2018 Hello Darwin, I had also forgotten that the new site lost all the details - including location! I am in Sunderland and I would be prepared to post. Cheers, Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darwin Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Thanks Neil. Its a shame I'm not closer but I'll have a think (and more importantly a chat with the wife !) as this would go very nicely with my little collection of jazz basses - natural, sunset orange and lake placid blue, all maple neck Darren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were a P in that colour though, I'd be begging..I mean chatting with my wife right now! Anyway, thought I'd just say hello as I'm in Bury St Eds, so quite local to you. so er...hello!
