Unbelievable!

[Bill Thorsberg]

I just scored this beautiful paranormal jazz bass in eBay for $210! It's absolutely brand new and sounds and plays like a dream. I took a chance on buying unseen online but wow it seems at least for now - this is an awesome instrument. Build quality is excellent - I'm thrilled!!!

Great score!

Hope you have fun with your new bass. $210 for a Fender new is a good deal.

 

[CletusMarley]

[JRA]

Very nice - good stuff!

2 pickups / 2 knobs. How are the tone and volume controls configured?

It's 2 pairs of concentric volume/tone knobs.

Congrats on a score, OP!

That's hot!

No, really, it could be stolen at that price. Did the seller have good feedback or was this a newly opened account?

Otherwise, score!

Those are stacked knobs like the 1961 and 1962 Jazz basses. Volume is the tall one and the ring is the tone on each one.

That's a great score! I'm not a jazz bass guy, but I played one of these at GC and was very tempted to buy it. It played and sounded better than some basses 3 times the price.

$210 including shipping?

Congrats and I paid a lot more for mine and it was worth it. I was a brand snob until I played this thing and mine has some gorgeous maple grain patterns love this bass.
