basscki Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 (edited) 5 string passive jazz bass I bought from Rondo Music in the USA about 12 years ago for my son but he didn't take to it so has hardly been played. In very good condition with minor swirling and a couple of very fine scratches on the rear of body, nothing through to the wood. Headstock has a couple of light surface scrapes from a grazing low ceiling. Neck varnished in a vintagey tint. Includes the original white 3 ply pick guard and a tortoise shell one I bought later which doesn't quite fit over the pickup lugs but I think would align with some sanding/filing. Scale length is 34 inches, weight using the plausible but not forensically accurate bathroom scales available is 4.2 Kg (9 1/4 LBs), string spacing is 16.25 mm. Presumably a local socially distanced handover might be feasible if for exercise purposes (?), otherwise the buyer can arrange for a courier. There's no gig bag or case but I would package it well.

TheGreek Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 (edited) Interested in trades? Can you clarify - the original white plate doesn't fit?? Edited January 25, 2021 by TheGreek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The white plate fits but I took photos of it overlaying the tortoiseshell one just so you get an idea of how it looks. I'd consider trades although I am trying to cull the herd ...

ForbiddenWytch Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Black jazz basses always look so much better with red tort plates. Wish I was closer/had £100 to spare! GLWTS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
