I wanted to bump this thread because I got to play these yesterday at Bass Day.
Well I actually got to play the PJ Jazz bass and man with the pricing point these things are incredible, the fit and finish is great, it was red with a light sparkle and matching headstock which is always a winner for me.
I actually didn't try the others, as I didn't try out other Overwater basses as I've just bought my 4th and thought I can't afford another so I stayed away and i actually thought for most of the day that some of the Aspiration series were Perceptions because the finish was so good.
Once they were pointed out to me I could see the difference in the body shape, but they are seriously nice looking basses.
I am most certainly picking up the PJ bass up when they are released as they are easily as good as any jap fender I've played.
The other aspirations I may very well pickup a 6 string or something in a fretless depending on how I feel but I was so surprised when I played them they do not feel or sound like their price bracket.
