voxpop Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 (edited) Hi Guys , I feel GAS coming on so here is a gentle but series feeler. [attachment=52451:DSC_0003.JPG] [attachment=52452:DSC_0004.JPG] [attachment=52453:DSC_0006.JPG] [attachment=52454:DSC_0009.JPG] [b]Take one 2009 USA standard 5 string Jazz, get an Ebony lined fretless board put on by the nice guys at THE GALLERY. Upgrade the standard pickups to Seymour Duncan '64 for that true vintage sound. Put in a Creation REDEEMER active preamp which adds punch and volume. Put on a Black Pearloid scratch plate. Add a Fender Marcus Miller 5 string Pick guard. Lastly string with TI flats. [/b] [attachment=52455:DSC_0010.JPG] [attachment=52456:DSC_0011.JPG] [attachment=52457:DSC_0013.JPG] Total price to do all these mods was £1650. I will take £800 complete with the Fender hard case and all the unused case candy. Postage is £30 for a courier, next day, insured signed for service.

grahamd Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 [quote name='voxpop' post='869919' date='Jun 17 2010, 02:34 PM']Its mine too, but i need to free some cash for a nice 5 string Sandberg. This bass has a really warm, woody, organic sound and so easy to play because of its 34" scale and adjustable string spacing.[/quote] sounds tasty, what colour?

The Burpster Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Hey Marc, got the pimping bug eh? Wonder where you got that from...... Is it std string spaciing (nut and bridge)? I'll do some research on the Fender site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at the first picture you will see 3- 4 slots to choose from. Spacing can be changed to suit your fingers and playing.

Old Horse Murphy Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Wow! I've seen the Bass in the flesh and it is stunning. The Ebony fingerboard is beautiful. Whoever gets this for £650 will be getting the bargain of a lifetime! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
