damm73

Ok, yeah it's a partscaster.  But a very nice one. 

I will probably part it out but that would be a shame. 

Components are as follows and I'll add more details on neck specs etc. 

Guitarbuild 1pc roasted swamp ash 1.8kg JM body, finished by me with nitro and lightly reliced (i.e. used normally for 5 years) 

GSP Basses highly figured roasted flame maple/indian rosewood JM neck, finished with tru oil/wax

Descendant Vibrato 

Mastery Bridge 

Mojo dual foil set, wired with coil tap switches in place of the trad rhythm circuit
  Gotoh SD91 tuners, all quality electrics, CTS pots, switchcraft swtich, truetone jack etc

SKB JM case included

£11501050 delivered. You're also welcome to come and collect it but I live on a rock in the Atlantic ocean.

EDIT: neck specs... I found the email I had originally sent to Graham in which I requested the following spec...

"Flamed maple (if available)

Dark rosewood fingerboard

Trussrod adjustment at heel (is vintage type cross screw nut available?)

1 5/8" width nut

vintage kluson type tuner holes

Jumbo frets 6100

Neck back shape - the way I described it previously for the strat neck was " something in the region of a '54 U shape that's been worn down a bit so is maybe in between numbers 1 & 2 from the graphic on this page...http://www.fretboard.com/fenderneckclarity.html" and what you did was bang on what I wanted!"

The actual measurements are .88" at 1st fret, .95" at 12th, I would say the back profile is a chunky C and reminds me of Musicman. Silhouette I used to own, but chunkier!  Nut width is 1.66" / 42.2mm / 1 21/32" and the fingerboard has 9.5" radius.

It's currently set up with 10-46 Gabriel Tenorio strings and I measured the action at 17th fret as 2/64ths for the 1st string and just over 3/64ths for the 6th. 

Also available as an option is the original pickguard I had on this which is loaded with a set of Mojo 58-64 jazzmaster pickups with overwound bridge and Mojo jazzmaster harness (with original vintage style rhythm circuit etc).

Seems we had the same idea! If I were minted I’d buy it just as a nice compliment to mine. Best of luck.

Lovely! Looks like one of Graham's necks...is it a GSP body too?

Good, would've been a shame to break it up!
How do those dualfoils sound compared to normal JM pickups?

I hadn't intended to share this and I'm under no illusions about my presenting skills, but here is a very rough and ready demo vid I recorded for the buyer.  

Hopefully it will give you a better idea than anything I might write...e.g. um...they're fuller and more wide-rangier!
