I've just gone back to the beginning of this thread; was this the bass you ordered in March 2019? That's 33 months not the 16 referenced on JD website. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevin_lindsay Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Love it!!!!! Makes me eager to get my Jaydee - although I've got another 14 months or so until the estimated completion date. The coloured wings on your bass are fantastic!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, has it been that long... crikey! lol I can only put it down to Mark King coming back to play Jaydee's again mid way through my order lol I'm not complaining though, I'll gladly stand aside and let the King get his orders in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnFitzgerald Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Hope you're enjoying the bass. They're far more versatile than many give the credit for. This is mine. Toby was willing to listen to my daft idea of translucent cherry into purpleburst. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigjohn Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Does anyone have any idea how much a late 70s early 80s Jaydee Flying V bass would be worth? I know it's a finger in the air question, but someone asked me, so I thought I'd ask on here 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeeCee Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 (edited) Tough one, Jaydee is enjoying a bit of a renaissance right now, like Wal, and has full order books and significant waiting list BUT that's for the Mark King and Iommi models. I would imagine a Flying V bass is going to have a more limited appeal, but if someone has just got have one who knows. With John semi-retired - I don't think the sons offer the same kind of custom service that he did - maybe that works in your favor. Got any pics?
