What started out as a Squier Contemporary Jazz bass, has now turned into a top notch active work horse. And FREE SHIPPING to boot.
Upgrades made;
Sanded, refinished headstock, refinished the back of the neck with Sam Maloof's oil poly blend, Frets have been completely dressed and leveled and rounded fretboard edges.
Upgrades to hardware and electronics:
Pickups - Bartolini P25P (P bass poles under P2 covers) $300
Bartolini 2 band active tone circuit (treble/bass) cut and boost - $200
USA Hipshot ultralight tuners, $$215
Wilkinson vintage style bridge. $19.00
New string retainer, new sadowsky stile tone knobs, and new Dunlop straplocks.
Other than the body and the neck, this bass has been completely rebuilt to pro quality standards.
Between the bartolini pickups,($300) Active tone circuit($200) and Hipshot tuners ($215), there are over $700 in upgrades alone done to this bass. That does not included other niceties like Dulop strap locks, bar style string retainer, Wilkinson vintage style bridge, rolled fret board edges, pro level fret dressing, set up, or the original cost of the neck and body. At $1000, I would still be losing money. The only reason I am selling it is to fund another project I have my eyes on. This is a pro level instrument worth double my asking price. My loss is your gain.
