Here is the same bass a few months ago........
In just 2 months the bass has gone from a fairly rare refinished '67 Maple Cap Jazz with no serial number plate, to an original NAMM (or NAAM as the clueless seller states) that even the great Getty :rolleyes: Lee would want! He doesn't mention the refret or 80's pickups or lack of original F plate with serial number. The black replacement guard is all of a sudden a tort with the "original" gold sparkle thumb rest.....
What a tool. >:(
Bet that rare Fender maple capped "swamp ash" body is a genuine Warmoth.
"..when was the last time you saw an original Maple Cap neck on a 60's Jazz Bass?). "
I am assuming this means a Maple fretboard opposed to the one piece maple fender necks? The answer to his question would be .....um never :sad:
but it's fatally rare...
Reminds me of Ed Roman, soused. :rolleyes:
There was an even rarer '65 Jazz with the maple cap neck and black dots that went for nearly 6k last year. I almost did a trade with the original seller of the Jazz back in February but changed my mind. Just too many unknowns about the bass. I doubt he'll get anywhere near what he's asking for it.
