Custom Fender / Warmoth 5-string Jazz Bass

Post by Wingspan »

Fender / Warmoth 5-string Jazz Bass

The bass is in excellent condition. No dings, scratches or buckle rash to speak of. It plays and sounds great. It comes with both a black and a white pickguard, and includes a hardshell case from Fender. A real TONE MONSTER with lots of sustains!!!

The body is from a Fender Mexican Jazz Bass, which has been converted to a 5-String bass. The neck pocket had to be modified for a 5 string bass neck. Pickups holes are original (no extra routing was made; EMG j-set pickups handle the 5-String spacing). It has been assembled by a local guitars maker who has 25 years + of experience in guitars/basses builds.

Fender USA and Fender Mexico aren’t building theses basses (even if there's a high demand for lefty’s versions) and the only lefty Fender 5 string basses on the market are from Fender Japan.

Overall, this is a very nice bass. Value of $2200 (Hardshell case, neck, body, bridge, custom neck plate, decals, tuners, strap locks, strings, pickups and working time from a guitar/bass specialist).

BODY: Alder
COLOUR: Black
NECK: Maple, Clear Gloss Finish, 1 7/8'' width at nut.
FRETBOARD: Maple
FRETS: 6150
PICKUPS: Active EMG J-set, 9v battery box (You can use the EMG J pickups with both 4- and 5-string bass guitars)
BRIDGE: Badass Bass V, string through body
TUNERS: Hipshot Ultralite Tuners, Hipshot string retainer
STRAP LOCK
FENDER hardshell case included

Asking $950 + shipping

Thanks!
