Jack Casady (Epiphone) Hollow-Body: MINT+

Sign in to disble this ad
FURTHER PRICE ADJUSTMENT: in wake of inquiries while I've been gone on vacation, I'm adjusting the offer as follows:

East of the Mississippi - $660 including shipping and paypal fees.

West of the Mississippi - $650 including shipping and paypal fees.


This black Epihpone Jack Casady bass is in excellent condition; never gigged, and better than mint as the electronics have been lightly upgraded by Dave Neely (www.neelyguitars.com) to eliminate pot noise and add a bit more taper on the volume and tone controls, and the gloss finish on back of the neck has been abraided to a satin texture that doesn't stick when you're flying up the neck. Set up is medium low, and current DR Sunbeam strings have very little use. If you're not familiar with these, do the websearch homework, where you'll see the high regard with which these are held for their exceptional tone, which relates to an onboard transformer. This was purchased new and is not a second, although over time there is some discoloration under the headstock...but there is none of the peeling along the neck/fingerboard that often appears on seconds. Includes bespoke hard case, also in mint condition. I love the sound but have bought a new trombone, so a bass must leave the Island!

Price - see above...

-- yeah, you might get a new one without case for $699 from the usual internet suspects, but it won't have the set-up, modification/upgrades and quality strings, and you're at risk for the scratchy pots that all-too-often come with these otherwise-fine axes!

BUMP FOR PRICE DROP

Price reduction to $650 for a sample that is far more playable than what you'd buy new...

This is my go to bass right now.

Articulate, big, fat tone with an extremely fast neck. Action is superb.

The notes just bounce off the fretboard.

Perfect woody midrange. Not harsh, just perfect.

I have received many, many compliments on the sound of the JC as well as the look of the bass.

Mine is the same color.

Big bump for Joebone's bass.

I would also note the that both the black and sunburst color
(like mine) are no longer available. Only gold anymore.

This is a great bass, I always get compliments on its tone.
It has a wonderful look and feel. The fit and finish are superb for a production bass.

Free bump!
