Black and White

[41.2Hz]

Hi guys,

Newbie here, so be gentle with me!
I thought I'd post some Fender porn - my trusty '78 Precision, and a lovely MIM Jazz Deluxe.

nice basses there i think that P would look cool with the ashtrays back on IMO by the way, but it's your bass, i rather like black on black precisions though, much nicer than the generic white on black.

Also what pickups are those in the jazz? They appear to have different size/numbers of pole pieces and in the wrong places.

Nah - I much prefer the P sans ashtrays.

As far as I know the Jazz is stock. It was an ebay purchase, and I certainly haven't made any changes. If it helps, here's a closeup.

Nice looking basses - those Deluxe Jazzes sound great. FWIW those pickups are standard on that particular model.

Thats my favourite look for a precision. Just slap a tort on that jazz and you've got my favourite looking fenders.

That wallpaper does not match the pickguard on the Jazz. So tort it up.

Nah, white pickguard on black precision = waay ugly, far too generic.

Also those pickups must only come on the jazz deluxe or something? Not seen them before.

Under no circumstances let a white scratchplate anywhere near that gorgeous P! I'm delighted with my Black/black '07 P, I've very little desire for much else, but if there's one thing I still lust after, it's a 70's P like that.

I'm quite changing my tune and getting into the look of black/black/maple Fenders. Must be old age. I saw a guy playing one a few weeks back and I was actually jealous for a second.

For a second !!!!!!

If you only have black and white Fenders does that mean the licence is cheaper????

Nice brace - matey.
