jay-syncro Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 (edited) Next up is my Moon JJ4 from 1999. This bass is an absolute stunner that incorporates beautiful woods, great (Moon branded) hardware, top notch build quality and the much sort after Moon Blackbird preamp and original Moon pickups. Needless to say It sounds amazing and plays effortlessly. The only negative is that it's had a thumb rest installed at some point so there are three (no, I don't know either) additional holes between the pickups. I'm sure these could be filled by a decent luthier, or you could just fit another thumb rest. I'll be sorry to see this one go but alas, I have too many basses! It comes with an old hard case so postage isn't a problem. I'm located in Margate. Edited January 2, 2020 by jay-syncro 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are generally quite heavy, often 5kg+! This one is a rare beast in that respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
