For Sale: Custom Jaguar Bass

Sign in to disble this ad
***SOLD*****I built two 'one of a kind' custom jags (one maple one rosewood) to see which one i preferred (this one was finished yesterday), and i guess i prefer the maple neck, so i'm selling the rosewood block/bound one to finance yet another project.

anyway, it's 2006 jaguar bass in near mint condition with a new Allparts block/bound jazz bass neck ($435 retail), shaved and shaped with rollover like 60's jazz bass, 3/32" side dots installed, and nitro lacquered with a matching headstock. New Fender USA RI string retainer and fender nut. all cavities have been shielded with conductive paint and grounded for minimum noise/hum. the pots are USA fender CTS, the jack is a switchcraft with a NOS 70's fender .047 capacitor with USA Fender jazz bass RI bakelite set screw knobs. pickups are new Seymour Duncan hot stacks (stacked humbuckers) and sound great. the switches have been sunken into their control plates by 1/8". machine heads are gotoh res-o-lites ($175 retail), for smoother tuning, lighter weight and better balance (no neck dive). i'll supply either the stock white guard or a genuine fender tortoise one (your choice) and ship it in an economy fender gig bag. this bass weighs 8lbs 15oz.
strings are new d'addario stainless steel roundwounds (.045-.105). i have way more time and money into this project than what i'm asking for it.

asking $900.00 + actual Fedex shipping in the contUSA. SOLD! SOLD! SOLD!

Before the thread gets closed....
I've played some of John's basses.
His work convinced me that....... if/when I do my next "Fender" purchase... it won't be a Fender. It'll be a JohnK_10!
