To me this will always be the Fat Mike bass. I love it!

All that said I'd still rather buy a Lakland blind than a Fender even a USA like mine, lol [URL=http://s997.photobucket.com/user/stingraypete/media/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-11/20141101_171416_zpsprg4tqe4.jpg.html][IMG]http://i997.photobucket.com/albums/af100/stingraypete/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-11/20141101_171416_zpsprg4tqe4.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [/quote] Well mine is cracking

Defiantly an ibanez!

Well, my skyline Bob Glaub feels better than the current US fenders do IMHO. It's hard to argue with the hardware, hipshot ultralites and a really sturdy if slightly odd shaped bridge are standard fair. The fit and finish is second to none and if you get an older one you also get Lindy Fralin pickups.

I know a little, they are mahogany bodied, most Jazzes are alder or ash. I've seen 2 for sale ever, one black and an even rarer (on these shores anyway) Antoria branded white eagle , neither were perfect and both were over £600, the cut out in the headstock tends to be weak.

Bought one of Johns wiring harnesses, cracking bloke and an easy transaction. My old Blazer has a new lease of life now too.

I have G&L gas ATM. The question is L series or M series.

The amount by which sound and attack change depending on where you pick/pluck and how hard you do it is exceptional. The amount of smoothness and growl available on the same settings is the best of all the basses I have ever played. The nasal growl of the double humbucker fully closed, played really hard close to the neck is like a roaring tiger at the bottom of a large cave [/quote] I notice this too. I can go from mellow reggae tones to aggressive tones without touching any settings, just a change of position and sometimes a pick.

Of the list the L2500, but play the M2500 too.

Sounds awesome!

I think these basses look incredible! Does anyone have a Stealth finished bass? I'm just wondering how durable they are. A friend had a matt black kramer explorer when we were in school (it was tge early 2000s and nu metal was big) and the finish went shiny after a while.

I'd love one of these.
