    This is a great G&L JB5 passive 5 string jazz bass in Himalayan Blue that I bought last year. It's a 2016 build and is in near-mint condition. Weight is around 9.5 pounds by the bathroom scale method.

    The only flaw that I can see is one tiny ~1mm mark on the body that I can't get a good photo of. Everything is stock except that I purchased an extra tortoise shell pick guard for the bass directly from G&L. I'll also include the original white one. It's exactly the same as the one in this video (might even be the same bass):



    The main thing about these JB5s compared to other 5 string J basses is that the string spacing is a bit narrower at the bridge (similar to a Stingray 5). I personally like that, which is why I bought it, but some don't.

    Will ship in original case (also in very good condition) with G&L build sheet and tools included. Asking $1100 shipped CONUS. I'm moving and need to downsize my gear collection, so I'm not really looking for any trades (but I can always be tempted). I'm happy to take more pictures or answer any questions.

    I'm not 100% sure if it is the exact bass in the video, but it has the same specs and is the same model.
