  1. Very cool Lowdown. Love that record. Not many times do people come out with that rare cracker. That to me is pure JazzFunk.
  2. I think the clue is in the name. It's uses jazz chords( not always of course ) but uses the funk structure of a record.
  3. That is awsome. Good man.!!
  4. There has been alot of excitment about his basses. One of which I own and it is just superb. But his playing is also very cool. Reminds me of Bobby Vega. I'm wondering if he plays guitar also. ? Anyways lovely playing. http://youtu.be/yTJcVIyhvtM
  5. [quote name='BassBunny' timestamp='1479635739' post='3177917'] There is a Mex one for sale on a Facebook site in the North West. [/quote]Which Facebook site is that. ?
  6. WOW. !!!What do I have to sell to get this.
  7. Is it just my lack of knowledge of 60s Fender Jazz basses or is this rather a low price?.
  8. I played the Elwood 5 Jazz last night. I may withdraw it from the BC for sale/trade section. It really is fantastic
  9. [quote name='SICbass' timestamp='1479382355' post='3176053'] Plantation Lullabies is also an excellent album [/quote] it's what Introduced me. The music is great. http://youtu.be/rNwrNp458tE
  10. I can't remember the last time I saw a MM jazz for sale on BC. I would be rather partial to a trade on one. Maybe I've missed them. Are they still making the mexico model.?
  11. The Lakland 5502 does a great job of putting together a jazz bass and a music man. But it doesn't quite get there. Doesnt truely sound like the full fat MM tone. And in the Jazz bass switching you dont really get that Jazz bass tone. not sure why and I do wonder why. Surely it's simple. Put 2 single coil pickups on a bass 70,s potition and then add another single coil inside to the bridge single coil. There we go a perfect MM sound switching to both rear, then switch to the outside coils. Voila.!! I'm sure im missing something as I'm not a pickups expert. Why doesn't it work like that. Is it because of the nature or the humbucker of the music man that you can't split it in that way.? If not why not have a MM alnico then a rear jazz pickup then a jazz neck pickup.? Ok why not just have one big big pickup from the bridge to the neck.? Yes I'm getting carried away now
  12. Really nice. And your right, there are no duds when it comes to MM basses, maybe a little heavy from time to time. but build quality is always good.
  13. Both amazing sounding. But the Jazz is more versatile. Doesn't make it better though.

  16. Wow. I'm not really into Warwicks but that is damn nice.
  17. [quote name='jezzaboy' timestamp='1479141376' post='3174267'] The bridge is all wrong as well. It looks like someone has drilled some holes through a BBOT (bent bit of tin) bridge. Engage reverse gear and run in the direction of away.. [/quote]Walk away from that one. It's not a USA Jazz. The tuners are wrong. Standard USA Jazz basses dont have blocks. If it's a RI 75 where are the big Fender tuner bases.? If it's MIJ why is the serial number saying it's American.? It's without doubt a fake and he's trying to rip you off.
  18. Maruszczyk Elwood 5 Jazz Bass for trade only. Ash body with a translucent cherry red finish and matching headstock. The bass now has Bartolini's, a traditional jazz bass control plate and a Delano Sonar 2 preamp. Massive ABM bridge. Rolled finger board. Active/passive switching . Zero fret. Graphite neck rod. The Delano pre is, volume/push pull/passive /active /Pickup selection/sweep/ Bass/ Treble. THE most comfortable 5 string neck i have ever played. 19 mm string spacing at the bridge. Its a shallow feeling neck very much like a Lakland 55-02. An amazing B string. It is really one of the best I've played. Super taught and punchy. There is no floppy B string on this bass. This bass was made in 2015 and in brand new condition. There is not a single mark on this instrument. its like brand new. It weighs 9.6 pounds,so is a lightweight for a 5 string. One of the best super jazz basses I've ever played. Easily up there with Sadowsky Metro's, Sandberg's, Mayones's etc. Looking for. Fender 75 RI jazz bass Marcus Miller Jazz Lakland JO4/5 Lakland 55-02 Deluxe Neuser 5 Yamaha TRB6 1 show me what you have
  19. In my opinion this album is a masterpeice of modern jazz funk. James Taylor Quartet In the Hand of the Inevitable. http://youtu.be/SqYAeNKqnV8
