Purchased new about 4 months ago. In excellent condition (9.5 out of 10) – has one noticeable spot on the upper part of the body near the pickguard where there are a few scuffs in the finish (see photo) and this is reflected in the asking price. Plays, feels and sounds like a Jazz bass should.
Currently set up with a brand new set of D’Addario EXL170-5 strings. Action is nice and low (no fret buzz!) and intonation is spot on. It’s time to thin the herd a bit, so unfortunately, this one needs to go.

I’ve upgraded the stock black pickguard with a custom Sire white pearloid one. I also added a plastic thumb rest and a set of black Strat-style speed knobs just for aesthetics. I will be including the original pickguard and control knobs in the sale.
I’m also including a brand new Yorkville YBC-4HRECT hardshell case, set of Schaller strap locks and a foam-padded 3.5” Lekato strap.
Paid $850 including taxes for the bass alone. The case was an extra $145. The strap, strap locks, pearl pickguard, thumb rest and speed knobs are approximately $125 total value.
Asking just $650 for the whole package
NOTE: I live in Cornwall, but I’m willing to travel within reason to meet up halfway for the right out-of-town buyer.
