Got this about a month ago from another TB'er. Thought I wanted to go back to a passive bass but I guess I'm an active guy after all, so this one needs to move on. Asking what I paid for it, $900 shipped to CONUS. Near mint condition, very, very small ding in back on the neck at about the seventh fret - far too small to photograph - probably wouldn't even know it was there if I didn't mention it.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: North Alabama | | | Very nice neck. The action on this is almost as low as the action on my Roscoe and far lower than My Stingray 5. This is a really nice nearly new bass, just not the sound I need for my current situations. I really won't mind if it doesn't sell. |

Don't know about this, and not to break a deal or anything, but my '99 American Standard Jazz 4 can't handle low action very well. I prefer action around 1/2" anyways.

While working at the local Long and McQuade the past two years, I've seen probably 2 dozen U.S.A. Fenders come through, all of which have been top-notch but one jazz that seemed to have scratchy electronics. (Fender's quality control has also been iffy over the years... but that's old news!)
Gorgeous bass... if it's still here in a few weeks, I'll grab it (when I have the money).
