J&D Cheapies

[Annoying Twit]

These are el-cheapo basses. But, I do like the look of these Jazzes. I prefer the natural ones a bit more, but the solid colour ones are a bit less like those already easily available elsewhere.

I know but from where I come from a Jack and Danny means something else so the name puts me off for starters lol

Look very similar to the Probass Geddy Lee type that were around a few years ago. Weren't bad basses actually, though the blocks were stick on

Don't know how anyone can just guess without trying them
Sea foam green is very tempting as a paint job would be over £200 and Fender don't seem to be able to mix that colour any more.
Tempting to buy just for the body.
