FS: My Dream Jazz NOS '78-'79 US Schecter/DiMarzio/Fender/Babicz/Hipshot... LOOK!

Sign in to disble this ad
SOLD to IVAN. Ivan, Clear your PM's so I can reply....lol.

Ok all you guys and gals. Here we have my Dream build that has taken me about a year to save and find all the exact parts I wanted in my build. Need to SELL ONLY to pay my mortgage. Plain and simple. (Yes, it's killing me to do so.) Serious offers only please. This IS the sweetest deal you will find anywhere. Here is what is included, what I paid for it, and what I am asking.

First I selected a sweet NOS, never used 1978-79 US Schecter jazz Neck with Ebony board and vintage frets. Frets have been filed and leveled. I added a pre-slotted Graph-tech Nut and a Neck Bolt-on kit. Really awesome. $300

Next is a 2-pc Swamp Ash body that has been finished with 9 coats of Poly-clear. It is unclear where the body was produced, but I believe it to be custom-made. Perfect neck pocket fit w/the Schecter. $300

Hipshot Tuners #HB7's. Smooth and light. $130

Babicz Full Contact bridge. Absolutely the best bridge you can buy! $109

New Fender Controls with an S-1 switch/button on the top volume. Not wired. $100

DiMarzio DP123 Model J pickups. Cream covers for a nice look. New, Not wired. $120

Fender string tree and bolt-on kit. $30

Assembled weight is a light 8.4 lbs. WOW! Balances Perfectly.

So that's just about $1100 out of pocket. Yours for only $600 OBO. Shipped to US States only.

Check these pics... then clik this Photobucket LINK for the entire album. Other parts in the un-assembled photo could be included in the deal, including the New CTS Pots, Plate, Jack and Spector Tone Pump AND a Heavy-Duty Road Runner Gig-bag.

True color of the body is represented in the un-assembled photos. Very beautiful color and grain.
The Bass has been strung and set-up with VERY LOW ACTION and the SMOOTHEST playability. I will easily COMPARE this bass to a LULL.

So is this bass coming assembled and ready to play or in parts? What required parts are missing from what you are selling?

Edit: So after rereading your original post, it seems like the hardware is all assembled and the only thing missing is that the electronics are not wired? Is that correct? I don't see strap pins on the body... anything else missing that I can't see?

Bump it up. Will finish build before you take delivery. Can include Normal Jazz controls, or w/S-1 switch. Your choice.

Some interest generated. Few ppl here know what this neck is all about, thank you. Less to try to explain US Schecters role in building excellent parts.

Solid deal on this bass!

Quality neck, that's the real gem of the lot IMO, and the rest of the parts for the remaining $300 is quite good as well!

I've seen this bass in person and met the seller. This is a GREAT deal and a GREAT seller. Jump on this, while you can.

So, just to clarify, the bass would be fully assembled and wired up?
