nash Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Setting up a friends MIJ '75 RI, natural with maple neck and pearl blocks. Such a nice bass. It even sounds good and I don't really like Fender pickups. I really like the gloss necks on Reissues as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatboyslimfast Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 (edited) That sounds like the bass my Jazz was based on, it also has the maple neck with pearl inlays - can't fault the sound I get out of mine. Everything from a deep thump from the neck pickup and tone rolled off, to a really bright zingy sound from the bridge with tone full up.

henry norton Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Yeah the Japanese reissues are particularly nice. I'm getting one just so I can hang it on the wall and look at it whilst I play my Precision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should do the same for when I play my guitar since I can't get in a band playing bass at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
