I'm sad to say that my gigging situation has changed yet again and being a total idiot, I still haven't secured the right ash/maple pbass for the job.
Up for sale is a one of a kind, chambered walnut, Lowend Jazz. It's beyond amazing to look at and is easily the most versatile bass I have ever seen, heard or played. I would argue that it is some of the finest work Brian and Chris at the Lowend have ever done - think Alembic, Wal, Fodera influenced jazz basses and you are getting the vibe it has. I'm really pretty bummed about selling but I now know exactly what I need and I finally have a long term gig with some legs.
Specs -
4 string
Chambered Walnut Body
Flamed Walnut top
LEJ Maple neck
Ebony Fretboard
4xSingle Coil handwound LEJ Pickups
4xPickup Volume stacked (meaning this can be two types of jazz config, pbass, musicman, HH - you name it)
LEJ Preamp
Passive/Active Switching
I paid over $4000US for this bass. It took 8 months to build and I have played it for 5 months. It has one tiny (3mm) mark where the neck joins the body in the cutaway - it can only be seen if you hold the bass upside down. Beyond that, this bass is mint.
Tonally it can do warm and smooth or roaring ultra-growly rock with pretty simple tweaks. In terms of playability, it pretty much ruins other basses for me. Especially when it comes to neck profiles. LEJs are the best in the world for this in my opinion.
Looking for $2800US shipped. I am based in Brisbane Australia.
Ideally, I'd like to arrange a trade plus cash (on your end) for a US Bob Glaub, a Mike Lull, Sadowsky, Fender 70s/Custom shop, Nash or another ash/maple pbass of similar quality. 4 strings only.
