My first proper bass was (and is) a 66J which I kind of lucked out on. I bought it because it looked cool (all beaten up like Jaco's) not realising that I was buying something collectable in the process. It has kind of spoilt things for me afterwards cos nothing else really does it for me in the same way (and believe me, I have tried). There have been lots of others, some of which have brought a different flavour to the table which have stayed and others which have been and gone. What can I say?
