Fernandes JB55 Japan price drop £375 - *WITHDRAWN* £450 Lichfield, Staffordshire

[The fasting showman]

Fernandes JB55, Japanese model from 1992-94. Upgraded with EMG JVX pickups which vastly improved the sound, original pickups included in sale, they're very anaemic sounding though.

The PU spacing is '60s but with the maple neck and EMGs it's in that souped up Jazz bass territory of sound.

Obviously it's got 'patina' but it's a smart bass that plays and sounds great. I don't have a case with it and I won't post, happy to meet up within reason. Pretty firm on price to cover what it owes me, at that price point it's a heck of a lot nicer than what you'd get brand new IMO. 

Better pics and footage of an old bloke playing 'Forget me nots' and 'glide' may be available, PM only.

Cheers

Let's see if £375 collected shifts it

This is an incredible bargain for a Jazz bass player.

Throwing in the towel, I may as well keep it
