eude Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 [quote name='ead' timestamp='1414504245' post='2589920'] In other news: Having spend a while trying to find a Jazz bass I like (but to no avail) I have commissioned an ACG 'Jazz' bass with all the bits I like. More on this story later... [/quote] You're a horrid horrid tease... Quote

Cameronj279 Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 Looking good! I'm liking the all dark neck/fretboard especially. Quote
ead Posted January 2, 2015 Author Posted January 2, 2015 Here we are, just awaiting final set up and then collection by yours truly.

Cameronj279 Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 Oo. now that is pretty. what preamp did you go for? Quote
ead Posted January 3, 2015 Author Posted January 3, 2015 It's the EQ03 with the active/passive tone. It's the same as the one on my fretless bass which is why I opted for that rather than the newer DFM preamp - no learning curve Quote
Prime_BASS Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Up vote the dirty maple for your jazz build. Love the look of that wenge neck and fretboard. If only I liked the tone of Wenge ! But the look is enough to ask Alan to make me one for my jazz type. Quote
ead Posted May 18, 2015 Author Posted May 18, 2015 And finally, here is the 'Ultimate Jazz Bass' (well for me at any rate)... [attachment=192316:Standard J Type 01.jpg] [attachment=192317:Standard J Type 02.jpg] [attachment=192318:Standard J Type 03.jpg] Quote

ead Posted May 19, 2015 Author Posted May 19, 2015 Hopefully picking the bass up on Friday, so will do pics asap Mr Eude. Quote
ead Posted May 20, 2015 Author Posted May 20, 2015 Here's a couple of tasters of my Standard J Type. Collecting on Friday. [attachment=192418:Standard J Type 01.jpg] [attachment=192419:Standard J Type 02.jpg] Quote
ead Posted August 25, 2015 Author Posted August 25, 2015 Due to massive amounts of gigging I have been given permission to acquire another ACG. Got as far as body and neck from some stock parts at ACG towers but still deciding on pickups and EQ. [attachment=199365:IMG_8907.jpg] Quote
eude Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 That's going to be another belter! As always, I'm going to enjoy watching this one take shape. Eude Quote
