neptunehealer Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 Just would like to know if this is a daryl jones, or a jon osbourne. Really like the shape and colour of this bass.

P-T-P Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 That's a US JO4, colour is Teal Green.

Surely the teal green colour doesn't warrant that extra cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJA Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 (edited) obvious difference- the Joe Osbourne has 20 frets (3 dot/block markers past the octave), the Daryl Jones has 21 (4 markers past the octave). it's a JO.

Surely the teal green colour doesn't warrant that extra cost.[/quote] The bass in the clip is a Joe Osborn US made 4 string. I posted the Daryl Jones link because it's the same colour as the one in the clip. As for prices, the US made Laklands are pricey compared to the Korean made Skyline ones on GAK but the US ones are pretty much hand made from start to finish (the necks and bodies of both are cut by machine) plus the woods used are higher spec on the US ones. To get a bass exactly like in the clip you'd need to irder a US Joe Osborn 4 string with stacked pots, rosewood board and finished in teal green. It'll set you back about £2000 or so. To get a bass that's about 90% of the bass in the clip just look out for a second hand Skyline Joe Osborn which will set you back about £500 to £650 and then get it refinished for about £200 and new pots and control plate fitted for about £70 to £100.
