ESP 800 Series JB
For sale is my ESP 800 series Jazz Bass from 1991. These are very rare, and the only purple one I've ever encountered.
The bass has a beautiful transparent purple finish with matching headstock, a dot&bound neck, good quality gold plated hardware and reverse tuners. The body wood looks to be sen ash to me.
The body and neck have pencil markings "messe '91", which might mean that this was an exhibition model.
The bass is in good condition. It has some playwear and small damages, but nothing serious imo. All hardware and electronics work like they should. The neck is straight and well adjustable. Playability is great with a low action.
It's a very good sounding instrument. I'd say it has a bit more clarity to the tone when compared to a regular specd alder body Fender. I actually A-B'd this one with a very good CS Fender I had, and they were equally nice. I preferred the slightly more musical clear highs of the ESP, so the CS went.
Weight is not bad at 3,95kg on my kitchen scales.
I probably shouldn't be offering this one for sale, but I really have to slim down the collection. The other basses I have for sale don't get the desired response yet.
€1.500
I am located in the Netherlands, but happy to ship at buyers risk and expense.
No straight trades please. Though I might consider a combination of my basses against one more valuable instrument; Rickenbacker 4001 (autumnglo please), early Modulus Flea or 34" quantum, maybe a lightweight 70s Precision w/ slim neck profile.
