EBAY JACO bass only $45K PLUS shipping

#181
I have James Jamerson's p bass. I'm letting it go for $55,000. I'm very reliable and business oriented. Since my eBay history shows I've only sold 1/2 of an item that makes me a power seller. I met Jamerson one night while dreaming of playing a bass and behold, Jamerson appeared. When I woke up, the bass was lying next me. And blah blah blah blah....

Who is this guy kidding? That's the most ******** scammer I ever came across.

Funny stuff. Leo was out of Fender in 1965. he started with Musicman in 1971 as a silent partner when the company was known as Trisonics. His no compete clause with CBS expired in 1975 when he was named President of Musicman. Sad thing is someone dropped the $45g's as it is sold now..... One born every minute

I challenged him on Ebay concerning his Leo statements. He hasn't replied yet and I doubt he will.

Is this guy the same we see in the seller's home page?

In his pictures in the site he looks a bit fatter than the guy in the murano reflection.

the funny thing is that the only people who would buy it are hardcore jaco fans,and they can tell from a single look at the bass that jaco had nothing to do with it.anyone who knows jaco knows everything about his bass,and the maple fretboard is the first dead giveaway.

Look at the new answer:

Q: You state that Leo Fender was at Fender in 1975 and that he probably made the bass himself. That is not true as Leo sold Fender in 1965 to CBS and Leo did not make guitars or basses himself.
A: Oh really! Now have heard it all.


I hate this guy so much that I'd take a stone and bang his head until he's almost dead and then I'd leave him in a desert to be eaten by vultures or die of thirst.

Also, what is this:

Judging from the picture, that is one of the ultra rare, three piece, pine, jazz bodies that Leo himself made upon his return to the Fender Factory in Fullerton, for his summer job in 1975. He also hand drew three all maple necks like this one himself out of one tree trunk. Congratulations, that's a real beauty. Would you take a hundred bucks for it? Apr-23-13
A: Yes, send your 100 bucks to the address stated. Thanks for shopping!

Pity he's blocked questions on Jaco's bass. I have a 1980's Strat with an Allparts replacement neck that was used by Jimi Hendrix at the Monterey Festival in 1967. I thought he might be interested to trade? Good condition, apart from slight incineration marks, some lighter-fluid stains, and some ill-advised floral scrawlings with a sharpie pen - which could easily be removed..

The bridge pickup routing looks far too well done and tight to the pickup to be a genuine 70's Fender body :hiding:

If only Billy Preston hadn't cruised up at random at that exact moment in this guy's dream then everything would be all wrapped up in a nice little package. Damn you, fantasy Billy Preston, damn you and your imaginary car!!!
