Both my CS jazzes have had the logo in the same place, which is a different place to the one on this bass, don't know if thats normal though? I've seen a few other CS guitars and they all seem to be in the same place?

I used cubase for years with PC. Got fed up with my PC being crap and bought a mac, best thing I ever did! I bought a used mac G5 for about £300, then a used digi 002 interface for about £400, then Pro tools LE8 for £100 Total £800, turned PC on, installed software, plugged desk in, ready to go! No messing with drivers or any of that rubbish Took some time to get used to PT, but it is very obvious in a lot of respects. It just works every time, no problems unless I run some huge plug in, and that is just cos the mac is an older machine! Best move I have made, guitarist in my band has similar set up on a sh*t hot PC which cost a fair but to build, we move sessions between machines without any problems. Great for writing and we use a lot of tracks, which has never caused me a problem Tony

I played something similar, one of the special runs they did, cant remember which one, it was OK, needed a set up though. I have a custom classic, which is a dream to play! is is the second one I've owned, the first one was just as good!! Tony

Go for it, sonic blue is without doubt, the best colour out there I waited for a long time to get a CS jazz in SB or SFG, the SFG came up first, so got that. Got a sterling that needs a refin, so will probably get that done in nitro, SB Tony

Stingray Choice - 2EQ, 3EQ, or Classic (again!)
sshorepunk replied to Musicman20's topic in Bass Guitars
Get both I have a jazz and a sterling, that is a better combo than a jazz and 'ray for me as I have smallish hands. I find, the range of tones from both basses is incredible, they cover just about anything! Add to that a fretless Jazz and I'm very happy! Would like another 5 string, but difficult which way to go, Jazz and MM! I would go 2 band! I aint played one for a while, didn't miss the mid control when I did and i remember they sounded great, one less knob to tweak as well, I like it simple when on stage! Classic sterling for me, 2 band, in powder blue, will be joining a sea foam green jazz and a lake placid blue jazz! Tony -
Intresting to see that the Sterling is now a very different animal, lost the 3 way switch and now just 2 band eq, which I believe has never been used on the sterling before, it being a much newer introduction! Where's my 2005 buttercream 'ray, I want it back lol Tony

Ain't it odd how somethings work out! Bought this off Bass chat member last week, as I felt like my fretless jazz was missing something (i had previousley own a pedulla, so the benchmark was high lol) around the same time I also moved to an all valve rig, which brought out a lot more from my Jazz, and made me a lot happier with it. Now I find myself in an odd personal situation, as the BC member who rang my house last week found out ("he doesn't live here anymore" said my ex mrs!) and could do with some cash back in the pot (I need to escape for a while!!) I will dig out the link to the old pics and include more detail this evening I have spent the last week playing both this and my Jazz It is a little heavier than my jazz, but has a lot fuller sound especially around the bottom end, with the bridge pick up on full with bass on full and treble backed of, it goes kind of jaco style, but a lot fuller, sounds really great and doesn't have a dead spot like my jazz! The bass balances well and the neck is nice and thin, like a jazz. I would love to be able to keep it, but I am going to stay with my jazz and probably try to improve it further by changing out the stock p/ups and pre. The bass is in mint condition, aero p/ups, baddass II bridge, 18v EMG pre, ebony lined fretboard with great skunk stripe on back of neck. Cherry burst finish and comes with a hard case There is also a fretted neck, can be swapped on this bass, or another option is to get a body made! I'm going to leave this up for a limited time, after that, I know some other stuff is going to happen for me, so may not need to sell Price is £600, collection from Manchester

Squier VMJ Fretless, Squier CVJ or Tribby L2000 fretless?
sshorepunk replied to mashup's topic in Bass Guitars
[quote name='Telebass' post='910023' date='Jul 30 2010, 10:50 AM']Here's that tempting link again! [url="http://www.squierguitars.com/products/search.php?section=basses&cat=new"]New Squier VMs[/url][/quote] The VMJ is a great option, but I would stick with the G&L, I gig fretted and fretless and have two Fender jazzes, they are a great pair and make it really easy to switch between the two, not that it would be that difficult if I have another fretless (which I do, and that is similar to the Jazzes anyway) I like basses of a certain neck profile, that of a Jazz, so I tend to stick with basses like that, so that would be the only thing I would consider. I dont know what the G&L neck is like, but suspect it would be more chunkier than a Jazz? Tony -
Gonna take a chance and ask the question on the EB forum, wish me luck! T

Its cool if you are into the vintage stuff, pre EB etc, I like the sound of the newer basses as well, having owned a fair few in my time. So post EB takeover sound with 2 band eq is good for me. I like the look of these (my Jazz is sea foam green!) so I will probably buy one at some point cos I can Would be good if I could get a stingray body with a sterling neck! I know they do the SLO versions of the std stingray, but would they do that on the classic series? I like the sterling neck, but the body is just a bit small for me, hence the reason for the mix!

Bought a bass off Rich' yesterday, absolute pleasure to do business with, my only regret is I couldn't have stayed longer, nice to play some Statii as well! Tony
