jay249 Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 (edited) I love this bass but it's too similar to my old 78 jazz so i might as well play the ''real deal'', ill consider any trade ideas but i'd most like a 64/65 reissue (not sure of the year), japanese jobber. Sounds a hell of a lot like my old jazz bass, but like i said, not a replacement, so i'm gonna get shot of it! There is a slight knock on the bottom, not visible from the front, where i'd dropped it at a gig. Bass will come with original bridge, not the badass you see here, Fender soft case. Will be putting this one on ebay. I'll sell for £550, but would prefer Edited August 8, 2007 by jay249
barneythedog Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 "but would prefer" ..................??? we're all hanging now
jay249 Posted August 5, 2007 Author Posted August 5, 2007 Beg your pudding...would prefer a trade, if anyoen does have that 64 style model or any nice fender's particularly japanese fender, i'd be interested, but it's going on ebay today.
jay249 Posted August 5, 2007 Author Posted August 5, 2007 (edited) more pics... damage can be seen on the first pic, at the inside edge of the body. Edited August 5, 2007 by jay249
jay249 Posted August 5, 2007 Author Posted August 5, 2007 bump, will let this go for 500 cash or paypal plus delivery, or pickup from bristol. can't say fairer than that, it's a month old, and it costs about 500 to import!

neilb Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 Price may be a bit steep for a 2nd hand bass, albeit 1 month old, its still 2nd hand. You can get a new one for £540 imported here!!! [url="http://www.craftedinjapan.co.uk/photo_995461.html"]http://www.craftedinjapan.co.uk/photo_995461.html[/url]

It might be worth emailing Ishibashi, John at far east guitars or even the guitar emporium. You may be lucky. Great sounding basses tho. Nick Edit just had a look and you can get one from [url="http://craftedinjapan.co.uk/photo_995459.html"]here.[/url] Edited August 6, 2007 by Magnolia
jay249 Posted August 6, 2007 Author Posted August 6, 2007 Thanks for the tip mate but I've got a dialogue gong with Ishibashi again and they say theres no problem sourcing one, though that one for 520 is probably almost the same price as importing! cheers for that
jay249 Posted August 6, 2007 Author Posted August 6, 2007 BUMP, ebay listing buy it now for £500 Someone have it!
jay249 Posted August 7, 2007 Author Posted August 7, 2007 bump! Your's today for 470 quid, plus postage!

jay249 Posted August 7, 2007 Author Posted August 7, 2007 Indeed I dont often post on there, some of the people on there I can see myself not getting on with! but it's alright!
warwickhunt Posted August 7, 2007 Posted August 7, 2007 It appears this is not a good time to be selling! I've had no luck with my '91 USA '60/'61 re-issue stack-knob Jazz, which I've got up for just £100 more than yours! Heaven knows everyone appears to be wanting Jazzes and loads of positive comments but with Summer hol's etc. pockets are pretty deep.
jay249 Posted August 7, 2007 Author Posted August 7, 2007 It's indeed a pain in the tits! I'm fortunate to be able to afford the replacement to be ordered this week and i have 9 watchers on ebay...someone take it!
