I know it is fashionable to say this, but I'm putting this bass up for sale with genuine sadness, but I have another bass that does all the things this one does but with an active option too.  I have owned the bass for a little while and have enjoyed playing it immensely, the replacement neck (see below) is amazing and I have debated with myself whether to just part out the bass and keep the neck for another bass.

 

The pickup switch and individual volume controls afford great flexibility along with the master tone control of course.  A high mass Fender bridge is standard and the bass comes in at 4.1kgs on my scales; pretty decent for a J bass.  A Fender gig bag included.

 

I have added a picture of the original serial number as the one on the reverse of the headstock does not reflect the right vintage etc.

 

Price is £495.  I would much prefer to hand over / meet up however is you live in a far-flung part of the kingdom then a courier is probably inevitable.  I have a box and packaging and will wrap it up well, but you will need to make the arrangements.  I work from home mostly so will be able to make sure that I'm around when the courier calls.

 

Trades considered, but most likely to be tempted by a P bass with cash either way depending on the flavour.
