Bassassin Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Rare-67-Custom-FENDER-Electric-Base-Guitar-PLEASE-LOOK_W0QQitemZ250182292502"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Rare-67-Custom-FENDE...emZ250182292502[/url] Quite a common speling misteak on Ebay, this one, and it always lowers the number of views an auction gets. Worth bearing in mind that once a bid's placed, the seller can't edit the auction title. I've mailed him to find out what the reserve is. Jon.

99ster Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 (edited) Well it sure isn't a 1967 Jazz! A refinished 1975 Jazz maybe... Still it is potentially a nice bass - though it would need another refin unless glitter is your thing!!

neilb Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 [i]It comes complete with mains adapter & other conections[/i] err.........????? why??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul_C Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 It all points to it being a 1976 model, and the colour could well be original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don't think this was available in the 70's??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tauzero Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 If the serial number's genuine, it's about 1975. Three-bolt microwobble neck fixing came in in 73 - are there reissues with that on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wateroftyne Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 It is a '75 transition. TV logo, 3-bolt neck. The finish is 100% non-original. It's quite funky, though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamster Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 It's a '67 Jazz the same as Trigger's broom is original What would be a fair price for it? Hamster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bnt Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 It's now been removed, and relisted as a '75. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise I'm wasting my shining wit. Or something like that... BTW I personally wouldn't know a 67 from a 75 Jazz if I was laterally rectally probed by two of them strapped together in the shape of a Maltese cross. Just reportin' like. J.
