I can't believe it's come to this, but I'm afraid it has. My financial situation is such that I'm downgrading from my JAF. It's #21, and is in as good of shape as the day it was delivered to me. The only change since I got it is that I've replaced the pickups with a set of passive Bart Soapbars and shielded the control cavity.

Dead silent, super simple controls. One volume knob per pickup, no tonal controls whatsoever. Plug in and play. The Barts sound super nice in this bass.



Cash sale price = $1,800. The only bass trade offers I'm interested in are for a Jetglo Ric 4003. This is a $3,000 bass brand new, and it's in pristine condition.

Also, if you need more pictures, or pictures of a specific area of the bass, let me know. I'll be glad to take pics of whatever part of the bass you need to see closer.

Hardware Rundown:
Gotoh GB7 Tuners
Schaller Roller bridge
Bartolini Soapbar pickups (I'm not certain on the model numbers. give me a day, and i'll post them here)
Currently strung with DR Hi-Beams
Neck Width at the Zero Fret = 1 5/8" or approximately 41 mm.

Up until I make a definite, final committment to a deal on this, I fully reserve the right to change my mind and remove this listing. I'm still looking for ways around downgrading, but the options are becoming more and more limited every day...

*cries* plus bump...

For anyone who doesn't know about JAFs... this is a GREAT deal. These basses are as good as any custom shop out there.

will consider trades for your bass plus cash, EBMM 4's are nice. higher-end jazzes perhaps? whatcha got?
