Last year I owned 3 original 1966 Jetstar basses. I wish I had kept them because they are Killer basses, my favorite next to a Thunderbird.

You are SO kind...in an elegant, backhanded kind of way.   ;D

Seriously, those are cool basses.  Was he selling the red one too?

He had a red, blue and black still in the boxes.  The black is still available.....I seriously debated going for it so I wouldn't get hassled about the blue one, but I do like the color.

It would be cool if someone here ended up with the black one.

Very tempting!  But I took my daughter's 05 Subaru in for an oil change tonight and noticed that the transmission was slipping! :o >:(  It looks like it might be low on fluid (please God let just be low on fluid!) and if that's the case I could do it otherwise I'll be selling blood...

Here's hoping it's just low fluid!

Fingers crossed for you!

I thought his price was reasonable.  Shipping to me was $30.

Congrats ! I just know there's a JetStar II somewhere in my future .....  8) By way of some real vintage crooked logic I've convinced myself it's the proper tip of the hat to Zally Yanowsky ......  ;D

I first saw the white pickups in these basses on the Angela.com site, and they're usually for sale there.  I'm interested to hear them when it arrives.
