I think I've decided to sell my 1978 Fender Jazz Bass.
The GAS has hit me, and I can't stop thinking about a heavily modified 1973 EB3 in a local music store.
This bass has its share of dings, but it plays great, and has a really nice mellow sound.
The bass is 100% original, and I even have the original bridge and pickup covers. I do not have the original screws for these, but I did cannibalize some pickup screws from another bass I will include.
Original hard shell case is included. The case is in decent shape, with the exception of one broken latch.
I just weighed this thing, and its 11.8 Lbs according to my scale, so if you are looking for an ultra-light, move along. I have a thick padded strap I can throw in to try to ease your shoulder worries.
I'm looking to get $1900 shipped for this.
Like I said, I'm hoping to get an EB3 locally, so I will consider trades for other EB3s. Ideally I'd like to get one that is long scale, with the mudbucker in the middle position, and one that is already modded, I'd hate to ruin the value of a vintage instrument by swapping pickups out. I would also consider a Gibson SG bass.
I'm always up for looking at anything else interesting, but this is really what I'm looking for right now.
Cash to be added or subtracted as appropriate.
Check out the pics. Feel free to ask any questions, I can provide more/different pics, and I might record some sound samples later.
