Jerzy Drozd Club

Hello everyone, I am thinking of getting a Jerzy Signature 5 made in 2007. This thing has no inlays on the fretboard, a double truss rod and a single dip switch unlike some of the new ones that have a single rod and two dip switches.

Could anyone fill me in, is this dip switch the passive active switch, kill / mute switch or mid frequency switch?

The seller is asking for 4200 bucks. Is this a good price for a Sig 5 in mint condition without inlays?

Any information would be useful. Thank you in advance.

it is likely a mid freq switch. $4200 is an awesome price for a mint Signature V. You would pay a helluva lot more for a new one.

Thank you very much for the reply. I was thinking the same about the mid freq switch. I am seriously thinking about getting this bass in the next few days.

Anyway thanks for the reply.

What is that new thing? Where is it built..... In a castle?

I'm seeing Fodera in that body. Maybe it's just the knob layout.

Funky but I still want it. I'm just a Jerzy fanboy though.

I wired the money for the Signature V. Now all I have to do is wait till October when I am back home to collect it. All I have to do is wait 4 months! No big deal right? LOL

Congrats... you won't be disappointed. That is a very good score.
4 months LOL.. I could do that standing on my head.
I waited 2.5 years for mine as it was built.

Enjoy!
My wait was 22 months.
Still one of my 2 fav's. The other is a Warmoth Gecko I built.

Maybe not.

Dead thread?

Not very active.

My guess, everybody's busy working/playing.
