Ghosts Over Japan Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Thats just beautiful! My kinda bass
bubinga5 Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 wow this is whole lot of quality bass for the money Rayman is asking!!
Sibob Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 What kind of trades are you looking at Rayman? Si
Stag Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 If this was a P rather than a J i'd be laying some cash down for it. Very nice, have a free bumpo.
Beedster Posted October 23, 2009 Posted October 23, 2009 [quote name='Rayman' post='633539' date='Oct 22 2009, 04:11 PM']... it must be worth £350 ish?[/quote] I'd have a said a fair bit more?
Rayman Posted October 23, 2009 Author Posted October 23, 2009 Thanks everyone for the offers/PMs, I've never had so many, so it'll take a while to reply to them all. Trade wise, well, I'm open minded, but another Precision would be nice, condition and colour not important as long as it plays well, MIJ/CIJ would be great. Passive is definately best for me at this time though. This jazz is a nice old thing, like I say with some wear and tear, and some kind of faint colouring on the reverse of the neck, as though someone has previously used magic marker to mark the fret positions on the rear, no idea why, but it's very faint and doesn't affect the playability in any way, and there's certainly no lacquer damage, I just want to be honest. I tried photgraphing the faint marks but they hardly show up on the picture. Again, thanks for the offers, I'll get back to you all ASAP.
buff Posted October 23, 2009 Posted October 23, 2009 Marker pen on rear of neck is from playing in far to many dark dingy places in the early 90's, but as rayman says these are very faint. I realy shouldnt have got rid of this
Sibob Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 [quote name='Rayman' post='635230' date='Oct 24 2009, 12:27 PM']All PMs replied to I [i]think[/i].[/quote] Oh I feel left out! lol PM'd again with a more focused idea haha Si
Rayman Posted October 24, 2009 Author Posted October 24, 2009 Sorry mate, PM'd. Has anyone got a CIJ 51 RI P bass they want to unload?
Presidente Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 It’s only my opinion but…control knobs have been changed too? The pickguard on 62 reissue J basses should be a tortoise one, with the 2 holes under the G string for the thumbrest. Shouldn’t it?
Rayman Posted October 24, 2009 Author Posted October 24, 2009 Oh yes, it's certainly not all original, but the pickguard might still be around. The EQ is not the original one, knobs and pots I believe have been changed by a previous owner. The body, neck, tuners, bridge, EQ plate and copper sheilding is all original as far as I know.
buff Posted October 24, 2009 Posted October 24, 2009 (edited) The original bill of sale said this bass was a 60's jazz bass. I sold it to the guy that rayman bought it from, i fitted emg's to it in the early 90's. The person who bought it from me didnt want them, so i supplied him with the plate and controls from a squier VM bass. The original scratchplate didnt have any holes for a thumb rest.

Rayman Posted October 25, 2009 Author Posted October 25, 2009 Original tort plate will now also be supplied with the bass.
