1998 Fender American Deluxe Jazz Bass - asking $975 (USD).
Original (rare) John Suhr preamp and pickups (only appeared on the Deluxe basses in 1998 and 1999). In very good condition with a few dings and light playing wear around the pickups.
Neck has a custom epoxy finish by HG Thor Guitar Works (NY, USA) which was done in 2003. This treatment gives a glass-like finish on the fretboard and creates a Jaco-like singing tone. More information about this process here: http://www.woodwiz.com/guitarlab/epoxy.html To have this finish applied today would cost $245 USD. There are surface scratches on the epoxy from roundwounds, but this thing is pretty indestructable.
Also included is a Fender Vintage Tweed hardshell case.
If you want additional photos, let me know. You can see the ding on the forearm contour, above the bridge in the 4th photo.
SOUNDCLIPS:
Both Pups
Bridge Pup
Neck Pup
PICS:
(edit: pickups moved to other forum)
Any questions, let me know if you need more pictures or info. I live in Winnipeg, so Canadian buyers are most welcome! PayPal is cool, other forms of payment can be discussed as well as shipping.
Thanks for looking.
