Ruairidh Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 (edited) My favourite 4 string is up for grabs here. Fender Japanese '64 re-issue, Passive bass. I traded this on Basschat last year and had the bridge uprgaded to a Badass 3 bridge which improved the sound quality and sustain of the bass. I also put a ashtray on the bass purely for the vintage look as i believe it compliments the the colour combination well. I also have a white pearloid scratchplate that i would include. This bass only has one small ding in beween the tuners-which is highlighted in the pics. Its very small, and apart from that the bass doesnt have any other bumps, dings or scratches on it as its been on my wall for so long. Im selling to make my collection smaller whilst trying to fund a US Jazz Deluxe 5. £450 + P&P. Regards Ruairidh. Edited July 15, 2009 by Ruairidh
Kev Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 any pics with the white scratchplate? i imagine it looks even better!

BarnacleBob Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 If that is a bound board I may have to go and try this BB
Sibob Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 (edited) Shame you have to get rid of this mate! It's a beauty I've owned a Jazz Deluxe, and I much prefer my passive jazzes! How are the injuries? Si Edited July 14, 2009 by Sibob

It sounds great with the Badass, but iv already got a 5 string US Deluxe jazz in mind. I sold 2 basses to help fund it. This bass is now sold! As for bikybongo, ill have a think about that bass if the other 5 string deal falls through-its a gorgeous bass you have!
NJE Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 I think I can now say....its mine. Best looking Jazz ever IMHO. Ruairidh has been ace in getting this deal sorted out, top man. Thanks again, Nathan

I abstained from basschat for a day or so and come back to find a bass I've been gassing for about 18 months goes on sale and gets sold I've been thinking about importing one these from Japan.
NJE Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 I have been playing 5 string exclusively for the past year and do not even own a four anymore (suppose I do now). last weekend i played a Geddy Lee and it blew me away. The build quality and feel of 4 string jazz neck just sent me off with a mad GAS attack and I just knew i needed to get a Jap Jazz of some kind. I cannot wait to give this a good workout and i will defo be taking some pictures with my others to go into the gear porn section.
