    Hi My Fellow Bass lovers,

    Please tell me everything you know about that bass: 2006 Fender Victor Bailey Jazz Bass V signature.
    The instrument is in mint condition and has barely been touched over the last 15 years.
    I live in Belgium and apparently this instrument is quite rare here.
    I just dropped it at my guitar tech shop for it to be perfectly adjusted to my taste.
    I think it looks beautiful and it plays like butter.

    Cheers guys!

    I think that bass is as desirable as the Roscoe Beck Signature, and just as rare in the used market.
    Wonderful instrument you have.

    Totally jealous. Looks great. Met Victor many years ago in Japan. He was a lovely guy. Amazing player.

    Gorgeous bass...one of Fender's best ever. Only thing is that if you actually want your bass set up perfectly for yourself, you need to learn how to do it yourself. Your tech doesn't have your feel, only you do. :) You'll save a lot of money, too, and be able to make whatever adjustments whenever you want.
