SOLD!!!

Hey Y'all, up for sale is my near mint Fender Custom Classic J5 - Ash body in Ebony Transparent Nitro finish, Maple neck & fretboard, pearl block inlays and pickguard, Fender preamp & Noiseless Jazz pickups, Schaller straplocks. Comes w/ deluxe case & case candy (tools, cable, strap, certificate of authenticity).

I got this back in Sept '07 after a 10 month wait, barely gigged and is in mint condition... The only flaw is a small hairline finish crack by the neckjoint on the upper cutaway - noticed it about a week after I got the bass and I do no know how it got there - but it hasn't gotten any bigger since so I feel secure about it.

Truly the best Fender 5'er I've ever played with Custom Shop appointments all around. I hate to get rid of it but I need to cover other expenses - so with that said, sorry no trades.

$1800 shipped to continental US only - no overseas shipping!

Here are a couple pics... pm me with an email address and I will send you all I have.

Thanks!

Why are you selling this!?

To cover some expenses... I was recently laid off as my company closed down so I need some cash, found a cheaper used bass and I need the cash from the difference.

More pics... close up of front and back. Sorry that the front is darker than the back pic... but it is see thru black burst.

Man that bass is something , beautiful man, hope I had cash.

what is the string spacing on that beauty?

With my big grade school ruler it's between 18 and 19 - can't really get a true accurate measurement but you get the picture. There are grooves on the saddles for slight adjustment and I have it maxed out.

It is something, it feels a lot smoother than my Lull... All the edges of the body and fingerboard are rounded off, plays like a dream.

I wish I didn't need the cash cause otherwise I would wanna trade you for your spalted Zon!
