Leo[/quote] Thanks Leo The Framus is now with Andy Baxter (andybaxterbass.com) - a good guy, if anyone fancies paying dealer rates for vintage stuff. And sorry GR - my G.A.S. has changed from a Jaguar to a G&L SB-2 or Sandberg I'm seeing later tonight. But best of luck with the sale/trade.

Ghost Rider Posted March 15, 2010 Author Share Posted March 15, 2010 [size=4]Still for sale at £475 ono Still for trade for a marcus miller[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rednose200 Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Jesus man I cant believe this is still not sold. These Jaguars are so undersold and understated. They really are a bit of a secret, as they are absolutely superb. Somebody buy it before he changes his mind. Personally I would not trade for a Miller - no way. Do what is on my Jag. Fit a Gotoh chromed brass bridge, have Howard fit a brass nut, and do a straight swap with the tuners to vintage reverse winds - they are a perfect fit, no new holes. You wont want to sell it then, not when you find it rings for ages like a £3000 boutique job. All best though, hope somebody out there knows how good it is and grabs a bargain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GroovyPlucker Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Hi, Just throw in my twopence worth, having had both the Geddy Lee & Marcus Miller Basses, the Jaguar for me beats 'em both for range of tone, looks and playability. If it's the Marcus you need, for the tone, then grand, as it's quite a specific tone, and it's twice as heavy as the Jag, Geddy is also very atonal, if indeed that's a word, lmao, stick with the Jag, one of Fender's best, having tried most of they're models at some point, only thing that is similar in tone variation is the Stu Hamm Urge II, but twice the price, good luck, The GroovyPlucker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall tho, I much prefer my Jag to a Jazz, but if a Jazz were thrown at me I wouldn't say no, lol, The GroovyPlucker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
