FS/FT: M Bass MEJ 5 String

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey Y'all

I have this great bass I had built for me by Jon Maghini of M Bass (www.mbasses.com, incase you don't know). The thing is a monster, total Fodera quality basses for less wait time and money. Here's the specs on it:

Body: Quarter Sawn Cherry w/ Walnut Burl Top
Neck: 3 pc. Quarter-sawn Hard Maple
Fingerboard: Kingswood
Electronics: Aguilar OBP-3 pre. and Seymour Duncan Dual Coil Custom P-ups
Hipshop Bridge and hipshot ultra light tuners

There is a ding on the thing, highly fixable, but doesn't affect the sound.

I hate to get rid of it, but just my tastes in sounds are changing (and ever changing). Apparently he doesn't even make this model anymore and is focusing on high end jazz basses. I'm asking for 2400, but I'd also be interested in cash and a trade. I'm looking for a Lakland 55-01, 55-02, or 55-94, or a Vintage Fender Jazz.

If you're interested, send me a message and we'll talk!

Cheers, thanks for checking it out.

I think this is the best wood combo, and with those pickups, that he ever built (that I had played).....and yes, unfortunately he doesn't make the custom basses any long. Huge loss. This is undoubtedly a great bass, and most definitely at a great price!

Are these a bolt-on neck?
Can you post a pic of the neck joint?
Cheers,
Doug
