FT: Seafoam Green Jazz Bass w/ Blocks/Binding (Allparts, etc)

Sign in to disble this ad
I'm 95% sure this color is called seafoam green, but if it's surf green please let me know. This color is really difficult for me to capture with my limited photography skills but I think the close up of the body is a decent representation. I'll try to get better pics up asap.

Here are the specs:

Fender licensed alder body by WD Music
Fender licensed maple neck by AllParts
Hipshot vintage tuners
Aero Type One pickups
CTS Pots
Hipshot bridge

This bass was assembled about 1 year ago by Trutone Music in Santa Monica, Ca. I purchased all the parts new except for the pickups. The back of the neck is lightly sanded and the bass is in excellent condition.

I'm not playing it much, so I'd like to see what's out there. If you have a really nice Warmoth/Allparts type fretless bass I'd be very interested. I like it all, though, so shoot me some offers and we'll see if we can make a deal.

Interested in a fretless?

Warmoth neck (defretted but its a good job) and epoxied.
Fender claw bridge (high mass bridge)
Featherweight ash body stained and finished in nitro. The wood was 130 year old seasoned ash.
Nordstrand P/J pickups
Wired Volume Blend Tone with CTS pots and fully shielded

Oil finish on the back of the neck and play wear on the body but its a great sounding and playing bass. The fretboard is ebony but I forget what the neck wood is (ovankol?) No dive on this bass. The bridge cancels out the dive from the tuners and steel bars in the warmoth neck. You get a super stable bass with great sustain and resonance, but its not absurdly heavy because of the light weight body.

If you're interested I'll snap some pictures.

Of those two photos, which would you say comes closest to the actual color? I like the darker color of the close-up. If that's the color, I have to see what I got in the piggy...

I'm actually considering converting the neck to fretless if I can't find anything...

Bump after 2 months. I'm going to put up a new ad with a FS price this week if I don't get a trade offer I like. So... one last bump for a trade!
