Fender American Ultra Jazz Ltd. Edition Mystic Pine Green FS/FT - *WITHDRAWN* £1600

[P-T-P]

***Put some cobalt flats on it, gave it really good set-up and it’s a whole new bass. Keeping it!***

Bought this as I was completely smitten by the colour, fully with the intention of selling my white ultra jazz, but for no reason I can particularly put my finger on, I find myself going for the white one a bit more.

 

I love the necks on these. Super comfy. Tonal range is superb, with the core, both pick-ups, everything flat sound just being a really tight, sits well in any mix kinda thing. Comes with the case, all the gubbins etc. and aside from one small ding in the pics, is in really great condition. I've swapped the straplocks for traditional buttons as the keen eyed will see in the pics, but will put the strap lock buttons back on before letting it go.

 

Weighs in at 9lb 7oz.

 

I have boxes to ship it in but would prefer to meet up for a face to face deal if possible. I'm in Chepstow.

 

Have put a £1600 price tag, but might be some wiggle room for a cash sale.

 

Definitely up for trades and part-ex, particularly a maple-necked ultra jazz or any ultra precision.

 

I like Fender shaped objects very much, but not adverse to giving a potentially nice Warwick/Spector a shot if there's some cash coming my way in the deal.
Lakland 44-02/55-02 DJ4 (red one????) maybe?
Yamaha BB P34/35 2024x or even 1024x.
Have yet to have a lasting relationship with a Stingray (mainly the weight I think), but open to the idea.

Open to anything not too obscure or boutiquey (is that a word?)

 

Fender's Spec says...

Fender’s American Ultra series is arguably the most advanced range that the legendary company has ever produced. Developed to meet the needs of the discerning contemporary bassist, the Ultra Jazz Bass fittingly combines ‘60s cutting-edge with modern-day cutting-edge.

The results speak for themselves; unparalleled comfort thanks to a compound fretboard radius, Ultra-Noiseless pickups offering pristine tones, striking finishes – this model has it all! Fender’s Noiseless range does exactly what it says on the tin. With the new Ultra Noiseless pickup range, it’s stepped up a notch. In this model, you’ll get a pair Ultra Noiseless Vintage Jazz Bass pickups. Alnico 5 magnets and vintage-style voicing combine perfectly with the carefully calculated tonewood combination and construction. Add advanced switching to the mix, and you’ve got dynamic, punchy response that can be tweaked to suit any style with absolute precision.
