Conan Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Looks like a beat-up J to me.... but with all those effects he could be playing pretty much anything and it would sound the same. I wish the bugger would stand up straight... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skol303 Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Is that not Jaco Pastorius' fabled "Bass of Doom" - a Fender Jazz - which Trujillo helped to restore?

Spike Vincent Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Surely the Bass of Doom was fretless? Although it does look like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I think Jaco de-fretted the Doom bass himself from a standard Jazz, so it would've retained the fret lines...but I could be wrong!

Josh Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 If I recall I thought he returned the BoD to the Pastorius family. It looks like a proper 60's jazz which has seen some action and has been fitted with EMG's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
