For reluctant sale is my lovely California JM. Matt black ash body with a maple fingerboard. There's some nice flame going on on the neck too. This is a really solid bass and very resonant - great for funk, it has a nice natural compression. As the frets on these basses are Plekked, they can be set up really nice and this one is no exception. It has a few marks from gigging but nothing significant and I've done my level best to show everything in the pictures. The mark on the body end of the back of the neck is a pattern in the wood and not a dink. Everything works as it should - she's a real nice player. Weight wise, she's a solid 10lb so no lightweight. She would, however, make a great weapon in a bar room brawl - not that I've tried that out 😉

The Aum sticker comes free and is removable. The neck blocks are also aftermarket stickers and will come off easily enough.

Would much prefer buyer to collect, however I will post at the buyers risk and expense. To post insured would require a hard case, which I can supply for an extra £50 - otherwise she'll come in a Sandberg gig bag. £700 firm. Price dropped to £650. Note - I also have a knackered hard case i can include FOC for posting.

Only trades I'd entertain would be something Mustang shaped or one of the Class D 'Fusion' heads from GK.

Thanks for looking.

Love this - I have a California with P MM configuration and I absolutely adore it.

I can't believe this hasn't sold yet? A steal at this price - GLWTS.

Someone should snap this up. For me the old JM's are vastly superior to the newer ones. I had one years ago and it's one of the only basses I really regretted shifting on.

I still play an old JJ4. Such a work horse and the Delano pickup & preamp combo is super powerful. I was looking for a 5 string for a low B, but these things sound so good. Maybe I should stick on a new nut and strap up with the low 4 of a 5 string...

Are there dots under the blocks ?

No it's undotted. Out of interest, does anyone ever look at the front dots when playing? I only look at the side dots.

Yes, I always wondered what the point of the dots on the fingerboard was, unless you're craning right over the neck the side dots are much more useful.

I keep coming back to this most days for another look! Don't suppose you've got a full frontal picture (of the bass!) ?? 

When I get back from tour I'll do me best to Photoshop the stickers out. Fake porn!
