Neck and tuners are 78.
The whole package with the pickup covers weight 8.15lbs.
The body also came from LB and these are the specs copied from the previous listing:
The body is a chambered, 3 tone sunburst alder Jazz style body by John Scott at Bluesman Vintage here in Nashville. Pickups are David Allen CS J4 early 60's style Jazz bass pickups. Harness and pots/cap/wiring are Bluesman Vintage. All finish work ( build, finish, wiring, setup...etc) done by John Scott at Bluesman Vintage.
According with the previous listing and also measurements i took, the PU are on the 70's position.
The neck came from screambasses and the body from tomdbass.

I'd love to get this bass from you, just bad timing for my wallet. Getting ready for another tour so my music funds are into that at the moment.

I really thought that neck was beautiful on the blue jazz body you had up a while ago. That was aesthetically a winner in my opinion.

Well each one with your own preference, i believe the majority agrees with you but i think it goes better with this one!
I am only selling it to fund another purchase otherwise i would hold on to it.
