sixshooter Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 (edited) Try as I might, I do not get on with Jazz Basses! I guess I always will be a P Bass man. So clearing out some of my Basses that I do not use is part of my New Years Resolution. LPB Jazz V with Sims leds, Buckle Rash at the back, and a couple of small dents, other than that very clean.

Bassmanc Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 Nice looking Bass, but are they, er, wearing tassle shirts!!!???
cgordonfreeman Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 Would you be interested in doing a swap for my 5-string Valenti #11? You can get full specs off the Valenti website and i can give you pics if you like. It's basically a P bass with Nordstrand dual coil pickups and coil taps for each pickup with an aguilar OBP-1 in it.
JohnnyLightyear Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 Hi- how much are you looking for? Is that the original neck?

I have got to the stage that I have the Bass's that I need and will never sell and so a number of my collection are just not going to see daylight unless they go to a good home.

Delberthot Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 didn't Mark King have something like this done by Fender for his own artist model? can vagueley remember that it was blue with SIMS LEDs

trevthebass Posted January 6, 2009 Posted January 6, 2009 yes mark king did have a blue one with leds i bought it from hes brother nathan if this helps. trev.
sixshooter Posted January 8, 2009 Author Posted January 8, 2009 Price drop to £800, Gas has got the better of me so I need to ballance my funds!
sixshooter Posted January 12, 2009 Author Posted January 12, 2009 No one want a nice Jazz with pretty lights on it then? Bump
sixshooter Posted February 2, 2009 Author Posted February 2, 2009 Over 750 views and not a single person interested in this? I would have thought that this is a pretty good price for a US 5 Jazz that has a £250 SIM's upgrade on it? Final price drop to £725, if no takers then I will put it under the bed for 10yrs and see what it is worth then!
6stringbassist Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 Trade for a really nice acoustic bass ?.

sixshooter Posted March 3, 2009 Author Posted March 3, 2009 I have dropped the price to rock bottom! there are a number of 4 string Jazzes going for £650 without the LEDs so if this floats your boat then fill your boots while you can. I will close the sale after 48hrs and keep it if it does not sell.

Indeed!... he did.......think he also had a jacket with tassles on it too! BUMP!
sixshooter Posted March 3, 2009 Author Posted March 3, 2009 [quote name='Status09' post='424259' date='Mar 3 2009, 04:06 PM']Hi Guys. Great bass you have for sale there, good luck. Im sure it will go fast at that price! I actually own the #2 MK signature Fender jazz. Its a really nice bass and plays really well. Nice punchy tone, although some people have given them bad reviews, I dont see what's wrong with them! (and to go off on a tangent, any one know how to make the rosewood fretboard look replenished? Mine seems to have dried out in places from wear over 10 years). All the best [/quote] Little bit of lemon Oil on a cloth and wipe the board. A small bottle will last your lifetime!
sixshooter Posted March 4, 2009 Author Posted March 4, 2009 24hrs to go before I pull this sale. Thanks to bassbluestew for pointing out that there is a picture of this Bass on the Sim's Website.....
mathewsanchez Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Shame your gonna pull the sale. I would love to give this a shot if I had the cash but a bass i've had up for a while doesn't seem to be selling. If I do manage to sell it i'll give you a call.

If I do manage to sell it i'll give you a call.[/quote] I felt that I had to do something as it has been sitting here for some time and I have dropped the price by large amounts several times, so I thought that it would be best to either sell it at a stupid price or pull it from sale and sit on it for a year or two. As you can see from below I am a P bass man through and through and Jazzes do not do it for me, simple as that. If you are interested in future drop me a line, I may still have it.
