Suhr Classic J Jazz Bass: Gorgeous and Rarely for sale! Audio Clip! NEW! MINT

Sign in to disble this ad
Think of it as the best of a vintage bass without the problems, quality issues, or limitations. It plays and feels like a 60's bass but is much more versatile in sound with John Suhr's preamp and Humphrey Pickups (humcancelling) which sound almost identical to single coils. I also have a new set of Suhr "true" Vintage single coil pickups which I'd be happy to swap in there if you so desire. Only one set of pickups is included. It is in new condition with original case. This is true American craftsmanship and much better in quality, sound, and playability than any Metro I've played! It betters boutiques costing twice as much! Asking $1885 plus shipping. Also considering trades.

The weight is roughly 10-10.5 lbs. I might be able to get a more accurate reading during the week.
