    1962 Fender Jazz Bass Value?

    Thank you! I think you're right about well, everything you said. George Gruhn would be the great to get an appraisal from, that's for sure. I am waiting to meet with an appraiser who was on Antique Roadshow ( oh la la ), but I've been up searching for others in the kansas city area. I might...

    1962 Fender Jazz Bass Value?

    That sounds about right ... Maybe 1999.95 I don't know if I'm going to sell or not. Depends. Anyway, I live in an apartment and I've got renter's insurance, so ... NO B.S. I'd sell it. Okay? It's stupid that I have it anyway. It's almost unfair - I don't even play. My ex would hate...

    1962 Fender Jazz Bass Value?

    It's ******** unbelievable. I only knew that it wasn't an old piece of junk because my ex played and well, you know how you guys are about your instruments. The number stamped on the back is in the 80000's. 86945 or something. I don't know if it works or not though ...

    1962 Fender Jazz Bass Value?

    Hi all -- I'm waiting for a call from an appraiser about this bass I've got - 1962 J Bass. It's in really, really awesome condition. No scratches, and it's not a "Frankenbass" made up of replacement parts... I don't want to go into the story of how I got this bass, I don't even play bass...

    Pre-CBS Fender Basses.. Let's See Em

    LOL I'm serious! It needs to be cleaned, but it's like new. It took me forever to find ONE like it online with no replacement parts - I still can't believe someone would pay 19k for a bass. And that one had scratches and dents. He has a Fender Strat too, 58 or 59 - he can't remember...

    Pre-CBS Fender Basses.. Let's See Em

    This is the bass I am going to learn on. Oh, I will play it. When I get it cleaned I will probably do nasty things to it. The owner had no idea how awesome it is. Said $100 would've been fine for it. All original. Has been stored away and forgotten since the 60's. It's a beautiful instrument...
