Aero71 Posted April 26, 2020 Posted April 26, 2020 (edited) Never believed this day would come, but thinking of selling my one and only jazz bass. I really love this bass, but sadly she's getting no attention from me anymore. It truly is the BEST jazz bass I ever played and owned. It is a 90's Blade japan bass in Misty Violet with an Ash body, stunning birds eye maple fretboard and maple neck. She's upgraded with golden Gotoh tuners, golden Gotoh bridge, Bartolini pickups and a John East Retro deLuxe preamp with (ofcourse) golden knobs. Stunning looks and ditto sounds, this baby kills them all. Plays super light and easy. Weight is only 4.0 kg. There are some small dongs and dongs and light scratches, I'd tried to capture them in the closeup pictures. Price is £785 / €900,- Insured shipping within the EU/UK £35 / €45,- Remember this is just a feeler to see if there is any interest. Market is slow and likely I can change my mind and keep her.

SzunaP Posted April 27, 2020 Posted April 27, 2020 Wow, never seen that fingerboard version, mine has rosewood, same colour version, 5 str. And I love it too, using for 20 years... upgraded only the PUs with DiMarzios. Every band was crying for it, when I took something else to a gig.... Your luck is that I'm not interested in 4 str.... GLWTS! 1
ricksterphil Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) Lovely! I have one of Gary Levinson's guitars, which easily competes with a US strat Edited April 28, 2020 by ricksterphil 1
jahfish Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 Lovely jubbly! Not a fan of maple fretboards usually, but the light wood really works with the rest of the colours 1
