Sold.

 

Fender, Jazz V,  USA Standard, Rosewood fingerboard, Olympic white (with the body having been roadworn/relic'd), 2008, includes Fender hard case and 2x sets of strap locks.

 

  ̶£̶8̶5̶0̶  (sold) 

 

(The current equivilant is the 'American Professional' which costs £1,660)

 

It's a nicely balanced 4.2kg which is about as light as you find for a 5 string Fender Jazz. It plays well and sounds good, no issues with it at all.

 

34" scale, 19mm string spacing, passive. Also two sets of Dunlop flush mounted strap-locks including a rear mounted one (new they are about £20 per set) and a Fender hard-case that's slightly tatty but all working (new they are about £190).

 

The bonus/downside depending on how you look at these things is that it's been given a relic'd/roadworn look with the original glossy poly finish finely sanded down all over so there is a thin layer of matte paint (looking more like a nitro finish) with some some places worn right down to the wood, also multiple road-worn scrapes and dings on the body - some of these are down to it being a 14 year old gigged Bass and some have been put there on purpose, none affect playability as almost all of the wear is on the body. There is a small shallow dent in the neck (small enough at I doubt most adverts would mention it), small scuffs to the headstock, light scuffs to the pickguard, other than that the scrapes and marks are on the body so if you wanted to give the body a respray it'd be easy to make the Bass look new again, personally though I think the roadworn look particularaly suits a white Jazz with rosewood fingerboard.  


Collection from Twickenham or meetup preferred (I'd drive an hour or so to meet halfway). Or postage at buyers expense - it has a hard case and I have a cardboard box it could all go in, but I would much prefer to meet/collection.

OK, what’s the random thing that looks like an extra string ferrule on the middle of the back?

 

Reminds me of this:

Haha, yeah it's the scaramanga! 

 

It's an extra flush mounted dunlop strap lock - so the strap can attach there (as some Dingwall's do), the Bass then sits more to the right. The usual two are in the normal positions.
