This is a great Jazz Bass with exceptional ergonomics and tone, it has proven itself on recording sessions, tours, club gigs and in orchestra pits. The humcancelling pickups will keep recording and live sound engineers from complaining. I’ve taken good care of it and can only find a few minor nicks - as shown in the photos.
Standard placement of the lower strap mount is center, but I preferred it in the offset position. If you prefer it centered, it’s easy to change.
I’ve replaced this bass with a new F Bass, and I’m a player, not a collector, so this one is up for grabs. If shipping outside of the Continental US, you will be responsible for shipping and customs fees.
Sorry, no trades.
