Hi Everyone,

Im posting this to get a feeler for possible trades. I may end up selling it but for now looking for trades. What I'd like is a Jazz Bass. Preference is Lakland, then Fender, with RW fretboard. I value this bass around $1, 900 so Id like Jazz basses in that ballpark. I would consider something close to it and either myself or you settles with cash if its in the vicinity. We can discuss that offline.

A little about this bass. I bought it from a fellow TB-er maybe 1.5-2 years ago. Its a 2008 Lakland USA Bob Glaub in Cherryburst over ash, with a RW fretboard. This color was done custom. The neck is the J Width 1.5". Pickups are stock Fralins. Weight is 8.7 lbs. The bass will come with the factory cream tolex Lakland hardcase. The bass is in excellent condition. Maybe a few small scratches here and there, but very negligible. I would say condition is 9/10.

I love this Bass, really enjoy playing it, and Im torn to part with it. Only reason I am considering this is because I recently bought another almost brand new USA Glaub with a Maple fretboard which I also love. I cant justify having two very similar basses. I rather mix it up and get a nice Jazz. I just sold a 2011 Fender American Deluxe Jazz on TB. I liked that Jazz, but I wasn't as comfortable with the C-type neck.If I
cant find something soon I will possibly list it For sale.

Beautiful, Scott! If I didn't already have more P-Basses than I know what to do with, I'd be offering up one of my Jazzes. Somebody will swap something soon though. Awesome-looking bass!

I was the original owner of this bass and I special ordered it from Lakland. Definitely one of a kind and definitely a special bass.

I know, it's only rock and roll, but I like it.....

Thanks for all the nice comments, this bass sure is a beauty. And this post is really making think twice about doing this. But for now I am still open to trade offers. I received a few that are intriguing but Id like to see what else comes in. I am also debating converting this to a J as I really do love the neck and body.

I would hold out for a trade, you will never get back the "value" you would spend, plus, its a P body, not a J body. As for jazzes, I'm keeping the one I have settled on (Lull V4), its not available for trade.

Yeah, I hear ya. Its a tough call. Im definitely going to wait a bit and not rush into it, to see what offers come up. I agree that if I ever sold it I probably wouldn't get back what I put in. But I might be willing to sacrifice that to get something I hope I will have for a long time.
