[quote name='nick' post='1142145' date='Feb 26 2011, 10:29 AM'][b]2004 Fender CIJ '62 RI[/b], bought off Lee650 on here some time ago Upgraded tuners, CTS pots, PIO tone cap, Seymour Duncan SPB-1 'Vintage' pickup, covers added.... otherwise standard Strung with La Bella flats. Its not a heavy bass; a nice weight & a lovely neck to play - a good bass for long gigs.

Ive just put some chromes on my jazz (used to have some on a P bass i had) as i have a lot of shows coming up that require that thumpy DB tone,(not that it will sound anything like a DB )and as much as i love the sound of flats on a recording, i realy cant get on with the dark,indistinct sound they make live, its not a bad sound just not for me, a nice set of worn sunbeams can get plenty of warmth.

ha ha i know fingerstyle too!!!! brilliant

many thanks chris ive switched over

I absolutely adore my accugroove cabs but the bergantino line has had me interested for a long time, id love to try one, i must ask has the IP series been discontinued? i didnt see the on the website last i looked

First Bass Owned: Vantage (with a dimarzio P pickup ) 'Go To' Bass: Fender jazz (well an 82 squire anyway ) 'Your' Bass: Ken smith BSRMW5 Unfirtuntely i dont have the smith anymore but it is the benchmark for "my sound"

Just noticed this, ill check my gig diary and hopefully will be at the blackburn gig on the 5th

yeah they are both mexican, the duff is a reproduction of the old japenese jazz special which has a no scratchplate P bass body P/J pickups and has a jazz neck, the roger one looks like a 7o,s syle so will have a chunkier P bass neck, they both look great but id get the Duff!!! better still hang on for an original jazz special to come up, they will be far superior im sure, there was a lovely red one on sale on here a while ago i really wanted it!!!

You are right the term "keeper" is used a lot, i have an 82 squire jazz i bought it when i was 19 so ive had it 18 years next month, ive used it everywhere, mind you it did spend a few years under my bed at my mums while i travelled and gigged away as i was using various yamahas and warwicks, but these days its gettin plenty of use, it is a "keeper" i will never sell it and ive never even thought of selling it!! It must ba a basschat GAS term as i never suffered too much from gas while i was a pro player i had what i liked and used them for quite a while till something interesting came along(not that often), as soon as i got a normal job 4 years ago i had evenings to myself and joined basschat and ive been through loads of basses not as many as some mind , but my faves have been a musicman sterling (a keeper) until a ken smith came along and that definately was a keeper, i only sold it due to financial bother, if i didnt need to i would have used it for a very long time. now i have a very lovely spector. a keeper? im not sure the jurys still out but i doubt it, too much GAS!!!!!!. very happy at the moment though!! Ido know where my sterling and smith are though and i will have them back

really nice, i played a warwick streamer jazzman5 for years and always wished for a NT version id love a full on PNUT but the price is just too much!!, these look good though, although just a version of the jazzman with SD pickups, not what i expected i really just want a stage 1 with MM/J pickups a great combo!!

i thought it might have been set to self destruct- seriously though this thread has made my morning i nearly spat y coffee over the screen!! very funny, there is a small place in hell reserved for people who use mobile phones during gigs, woodwind players are terrible for it, sat in the pit between numbers texting away it drives me mad!! especially when it makes that ticking sound through my amp
