Marc S Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 (edited) Price Drop: Now £400 In my eternal quest for the "perfect jazz", I'm selling this rather lovely (quite new) MIM Jazz bass, in near mint condition. I'm selling to make room & funds my next purchase... (aren't we all? lol) It looks a real beauty, in stunning condition (one teeny tiny ding I can see - but can't get my phone to focus on). I think this one is a very recent model (MX1793063636 serial number) and has a Pau Ferro fretboard, which I like the look of. The last owner never gigged it, and didn't seem to play it much as far as I can see. The strings still sound brand new. Weight is around 4.3kg (I'll get an accurate weight soon) Normally, I'm not fussed on white scratchplates - so I bought a Tort one which was listed as being suitable to fit a MIM Jazz - all the screw holes seem to line up perfectly. On this bass, I think the white scratchplate looks rather nice, and quite classy - so I decided to leave it there. You can have the tort one if you prefer - I'll even chuck both in, so you can dither and ponder about swapping them yourself I'm now throwing in a choice of either a Fender Red badge shaped hard case, or an old Roadworn brown G&G Fender bass case (I believe this was from an AVRI) No trades please. Collection from near Cardiff. Or we could possibly arrange to meet up - I hate posting basses, and would much prefer you tried it. I've got a vox battery headphone amp, and a Roland Micro bass amp to test without mains, if we meet at motorway services EDIT: Tea provided at my place, when you come to test drive.

Yes, it's fab, and in stunning condition. I still can't decide on the white scratchplate or the tort one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as I say above - I don't normally like white scratchplates However, on this bass it does look nice - it's got a classy look to it IMO But you're right bassfan, Off-white Pearloid would look nice too. Mustn't buy any more accessories for it - I want to sell lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc S Posted December 4, 2018 Author Share Posted December 4, 2018 (edited) That's a cracking looking Jazz Mr Bassfan I particularly like the block inlays on the neck I've actually got a set of the stick-on ones, which I was also thinking of using on this white Jazz of mine I've used the stick on block "inlays" before, and they're not bad you know Of course, you can't beat the real thing, and with the bound edges too..... mmmm Edited December 11, 2018 by Marc S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc S Posted December 11, 2018 Author Share Posted December 11, 2018 (edited) The Jazz I was after has sadly gone. So I'm just adding the possibility of a trade, for a Fender Roadworn Jazz - obviously with cash your way, for anyone wanting a less expensive Jazz and some cash Edited December 18, 2018 by Marc S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc S Posted January 16, 2019 Author Share Posted January 16, 2019 Something else has turned my head - so I'm willing to consider (close) offers for this fine Jazz bass. (until the other item sells) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
