FS: Sonic Blue Jazz Bass - Matching HS

swpyne · #1 11-05-2010, 03:09 PM

The is a very nicely done "faux" Fender Jazz Bass that was built by it's previous owner from various high quality parts. I love everything about it as it's playability is excellent, it's tone is rich and pure and it's looks are second to none.

I am also offering up another custom Jazz Bass and as soon as one sells I will close the thread on the other. I can't be totally "Jazz-Bass-less" now can I?

I don't know who built the body but the neck is a bound and blocked All Parts neck I believe. The sonic blue finish is flawless and only shows very minor wear from being played.

The pickups are stock US Fender J's and the controls are V/V/T. In addition, the bridge volume is a push/pull pot that engages both pickups in a different way that gives the bass more "P-Bass like growl" and increased lows. Very handy at times.

The bass will ship in a beautiful blond G&G vintage case. (If you don't want the case I can deduct $50.00 from the purchase price and ship it in a gig bag)

Asking $849.00 including shipping in the CONUS

PayPal eCheck, US Postal Money Order or Cashiers Check gladly accepted.

NO TRADES ON THIS ONE PLEASE!

It weighs in at 9.92 lbs. on my digital scale. Pretty average weight but like many basses, it really doesn't feel that heavy!

Yes, it's poly and it's also in perfect condition. Not a scratch or ding on this beauty!

I'm not really certain of it's age but I believe it to be between 3 and 4 years old. With the exception of some surface scratches on the pickguard it looks like it's brand new.

If you have ever wanted a Fender Custom Shop jazz bass but couldn't afford one then this is the bass for you. It looks, feels, plays and sounds like a top of the line US Fender. Actually better IMO than most I have played. Sometimes a bass just has that "magic" and this one really does..............

I guarantee that you will love this bass or you can return it after a three day trial period for a full refund (less shipping costs).
