I am selling a brand spankin' new 2011 Fender American Deluxe Jazz bass in 3-Tone Sunburst with a Rosewood board and pearl blocks.
I literally just bought this from Sweetwater a couple weeks ago and am passing it along to you at a $180 discount. It is beautiful and plays great. I love these basses and will buy another down the road when I can afford it. Unfortunately, my wife lost her job, and other expenses take priority.
The stickers are still on, and it hasn't left my house. Shy of being an authorized dealer, this thing is new.
If you haven't heard about these, they're really cool. They do both active with a 3-band EQ and passive with a traditional tone control. They have N3 Noiseless J pickups which sound great and minimize single coil hum. It really sounds great and has a lot of flexibility. This one also has a two piece body (instead of the three piece), which I personally prefer aesthetically.

Trades
I would only consider an acoustic + cash. I am selling off my amp too. Please don't ask about other trades, I can't consider them right now. I am only considering the acoustic so I can still practice and get the majority of cash for other expenses.
Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!
