Ghost Rider Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 (edited) Vintage modified jazz bass for sale or possible trade. Not in a great rush to sell this but thought I’d test the market!!! Only reason I am selling is that I prefer my geddy lee custom build. It has only ever been played at home & transported to my mates (cd_david to fit the bridge & set the bass up) in a hardcase. I bought this new from soundslive newcastle18 months ago, upgrades to the bass are: Headstock has a fender decal & it has also been lacquered & been professionally put on by Dave Wilson. It is also has fitted with a Badass II bridge (Done by cd_david), retro style knobs & a white fender 3 ply scratchplate. I spent over £100 on the upgrades so I’d like £230 for the bass. I do have the original bridge & chrome knobs for the volume & tone but I don’t have the original scratchplate as that is on my custom built jazz bass. No case with this as my geddy is tucked up in it ! Bass is in whitely bay, Seaton Delaval, Tyne & wear & it is pick up only & cash on collection. Any questions fire away! I maybe open to trades so fire away!!! Cheers, Anth. Some pics are with flash & some without. Edited June 27, 2009 by Ghost Rider
Kongo Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Wow that's a nice bass! I cannot buy any more until I can get round to shifting mine. I have a few I could trade but it depends on what you want.

I don't know what you play though so I can't think of a good match. Worth a shot. Edited June 1, 2009 by Kongo

I’m not really keen on the Yamaha & I can just about knock a tune up on 4 strings so the 5 string is out unless it comes with a magic wand & some ear plugs for me wife! Cheers Anth.
