giblett123 Posted June 6, 2010 Posted June 6, 2010 (edited) Morning all, Latest in my clear out, this is my Sadowsky Ultra vintage Jazz 4 in lake placid blue. I bought this in a moment of weakness (it looks and sound lovely) recently from bass direct & it is a stunning bass but I have succumbed to temptation & commissioned Jon Shuker to build me a P-bass which I have been hankering after for a while so alas one of my collection has to go. The bass has had the stock pickups & circuit replaced with Nordstrand big singles (amazing open single coils) and preamp with bass treble stack / vintage tone / vol / vol + push pull passive bypass which sound sensational, kind of beefier than the originals and very flexible, the work was carried out by Bass directs techies & isn't a DIY job! [b]Specs:[/b] 34" scale, maple board with black block inlays & Black binding, Nordstrand "big singles" pickups + Nordstrand 2 band preamp, alder body finished in lake placid blue, Sadowsky semi hard case. [b]Condition:[/b] Superb, no dings, dents chunks missing or problems & has had a new set of DR "fat beams" fitted. [b]Price:[/b] I'm looking for £1295 ono, no trades on this one please, it's a fund raiser, I can ship if required. Cheers for looking. Chris. Edited June 6, 2010 by giblett123

Jon is building me a PJ hybrid with jazz neck & some nice wood, should be good!
