Details

I just got this a few months ago after selling my LEJ :bawl:

Very light weight.... very.
Alder Body
Maple Neck/Rosewood Fretboard
Bolt on neck
24 Frets
34" Scale
J type pickups and tone
Yamaha high mass bridge
Volume-Volume-Tone
New 25K pots

Abalone top P type small knob on Volume #1
Volume #2 and Tone do not have knobs, since the pots I replaced had the posts screwed into and the knobs "super glued" to the screws.

The intonation, tone and feel is fantastic. When musicians and producers notice I replaced my LEJ, they comment positively about it and say... "It really is all in the fingers!"

I'm tempted to keep it as a "beater", thought of refinishing it, considered all sorts of things... But then I remembered getting a PM from someone that said they'd take it if I ever wanted to part with it! I can't find the PM!!!

I hope he contacts me! :cool:

Player wear on a Natural finish that doesn't have much sheen. But man it sounds awesome. :bassist:

S O L D $260 Shipped to CONUS

:cool:

Brings back good memories! I used to have one of these! (deep blue with quilt maple veneer)

I put in J-style Barts with a Demeter pre and did tons of records with it!!
Good luck with sale!

The 'B' string is clean, without slop and feels very responsive to my finger style of plucking. Sounds even ala pluck, pick or slap and tap.
