risingson Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Amazing looking bass! I got talking to Paul Turner from Jamiroquai a while back at a masterclass at Uni, he brought along his '66 Jazz, same colour scheme as the one pictured but without the block inlays. I wanted to ask him if I could have a quick play but I didn't have the bottle Nice guy, also mentioned to me he was selling his '77 Jazz (ash/maple), another lovely bass.

risingson Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Yeh, great playing and a great guy as well! His guitarist he brought with him to jam with came to see me the next week at my performance task and said I played like him... that was possibly one of the best compliments I'd ever had in my life!

BB3000S Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 The answer is clearly "No". (It doesn't get any better than this.) That bass is pure sex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigjohn Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 (edited) I've got the MIJ '65 reissue (bound, no blocks) in this colour scheme. Tis a lovely, lovely beast. Looks nice with blocks too. I look at Jazzes without matching headstocks and they look a bit unfinished to me now Edited May 31, 2011 by bigjohn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
