Fender Hoppus Jazz Surf Green

[waltsdog]

Fender Hoppus jazz, one of the original ones so it's a few years old.

Generally in good condition, the paint has cracked and lifted/flaked a little in one small area around the neck pocket (see pictures) but there doesn't appear to be a damage to the wood beneath. It was like this when I bought it and it's not been a problem.

There are a few other little dings here and there, I've tried to get most of them in the pictures. The "skunk stripe" on the neck is a bit faded towards the body (not sure if these stripe is painted on or not?)

Mexican made, precision neck and Seymour Duncan precision quarter pounder pickup which sounds great.
Plays well, the neck feels good if slightly slimmer than a regular precision neck. I have the action set pretty high on this and so it might not be to everyones taste but that can be sorted with a set up. Just put a new set of strings on it.

Has a hiscox hard case that is by no means mint but does the job.

£250 collected, add £15 to that if you want it posted.

nice looking bass. love the surf. BTW,aint that some kind of Precision not a Jazz?

[harvey1-8]

Jazz body, Precision neck and pickups I believe.

[waltsdog]

It is more precision than jazz IMO, it does have a precision pickup and precision neck on a jazz body.

I've always seen it called a "Mark Hoppus Jazz Bass" hence the title.

[dr1]

well,according to body and perhaps neck (and pickguard) it IS Jazz,but for me, pick ups separates Precision and Jazz primarily. but neverthless....

Would you fancy a trade for my Eden Combo? Straight swap ?

[waltsdog]

Thanks for the offer but I don't need another amp at the moment.

I've got no internet connection until tomorrow now (thanks to my fantastic ISP) so full pictures up then.

As for trades I may be interested in a decent cab, 4x10 or 2x12 etc but I'd really prefer cash as I have something on order that needs paying for.

it's so crazy - even on the bass headstock it says "Precision"! just look at the picture from the link.
