Hi guys,
I have a Dan Ransom Jazz 4 that I don't know what to do with.

Body:
It was made in 2004. It has a Claro Walnut top, Alder body, 18V 3-band active boost/cut Aguilar pre-amp with center decant and jazz pickups​.

$150? Beats me. I have no idea what to ask. I personally wouldn't know what to do with a body that I couldn't just skap a Fender or Warmoth neck on.

Neck:
Birdseye Maple board and neck, 35" scale. It is the most gorgeous neckand fretboard I have ever seen, which is why I am so bummed that it is warped. It has a bend near the thrid fret which causes buzz even with high action and a good bit of relief. :-( The tuners might be worth something. They look like Hipshot Ultralites. I just don't know what to do with it. Maybe one of our handier members like blablas can do something with it.

$30? I have no idea. :lol:

I also have the neck bolts. What is etiquette, here? Do the bolts go with the body or the neck?

Pictures can be seen here: http://www.leftybassist.com/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=6110

I will upload more ASAP.

I will sell the body seperate from the neck, but I don't want to gut the body of any electronics.

Beats me, buddy. It was just fine when I shipped it to a fellow board member few weeks ago. But when it arrived, it was messed up.
