Guilty as charged. I'm pretty much getting away from the Precision side of town. Jazzes are just more comfortable for me, and the tones are fine.

Marvin Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 [quote name='RickyV' timestamp='1428231567' post='2739308'] Compared to some of the amazing basses appearing on here I think I would be struggling to describe my Jazz as 'gear porn'. Harley Benton Standard series jazz, bought for £27 as a 'deko' item and modded with Entwistle pups and a KiOgon wiring harness. Total outlay about £80 and I have a nice looking and really great playing jazz. Sounds the nuts too! Anyhoo.........pictures............ [/quote] That is one cracking looking bass for what is really no money at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassAgent Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Let's go into Stig-mode: "Some say he recently discovered one of his basses had a grandson..." "...and that he always has exactly one Jazz Bass too few." Blimey, that's a terrible photo. Sorry 'bout that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassAgent Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 (edited) Our basses might have been twins at first I don't think Fender made a white Jazz without matching headstock at the time. Edited June 9, 2015 by BassAgent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassAgent Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I'm a bit afraid to take the pickguard off, because I heard some scary stories of pickguards not fitting back on the bass because of shrinking celluloid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
