SOLD - Fender 1975 Jazz Bass £2250

[LewisK1975]

Was £2250, now £1999

Not sure about this, it's a YOB bass for me, but alas becoming a rather expensive ornament.

1975 Fender Jazz Bass in Natural. Bought from Bass Gallery in Camden. Previously owned by Basschat Site owner Steve Miles.

I will get an accurate weight, but it's certainly not heavy like many 70's Fenders can be.....in fact, when I tried this in the Gallery, it was 1 of 2 I was considering, and this one was substantially lighter than the other.

Just confirmed the weight on digital kitchen scales as 9lb 3oz.

Has a Badass II bridge, which was on it when I got it, original Bridge was not with it.

The only other thing I changed was the Bullet truss rod adjustment nut,  which was stripped, the part which you put the Allen key in was ‘rounded out’ so the correct size key (1/8in) was just spinning in it.  Replaced with a genuine Fender replacement.  For clarification, the truss rod is fine, with loads of turns left in it.  

Comes in a really nice non-original hard case. There was a Neck Pickup cover in the case, but no Bridge cover. I don't know if the neck PUP cover is original or not, but will come with the bass anyway.

Lovely U shaped neck, with the 3 bolt / micro-tilt adjustment.

Can take more detailed pics as requested.

Open to trade offers of equal value Precision Basses (I'd love a custom shop Pino signature). Also open to offers of lower value Precision Basses with cash my way.

But please keep any trade / PX offers to Precision Basses / PJ's with precision Bodies/Necks.

EDIT: I'd also consider a Line6 Helix / Helix LT as a Part exchange.

Based in the Bridgend area of South Wales, but as always open to travelling for a deal.

Looks in nice condition, considering its' age....

EDIT: I also meant to say, I'm not usually a fan of natural / wood finish basses
But that looks nice, especially with that lovely looking neck and pearl blocks

Kept? You're selling this one too now mate lol
Have you got a guitar shop I don't know about?

[LewisK1975]

Haha indeed Marc, I think I've owned and sold enough Basses to have run a shop!

Just to add to this, I could also be interested in lower value Precision / PJ Basses, with cash my way. Cheers!

Not the first time I've been told that....

[LewisK1975]

Just confirmed the weight on digital kitchen scales as 9lb 3oz. Not too bad for a 70’s Fender!

Cheers Walshy, 'twas indeed a good year! 

Also here are the original Pics, lost during the site migration...

Also added info in the OP about another PX option.

I'd also consider a Line6 Helix / Helix LT in Part Exchange.

Thanks!
