Muppet Posted June 28, 2007 Posted June 28, 2007 Looks great - best colour for a jaguar. how does it sound? Quote
Rayman Posted June 28, 2007 Posted June 28, 2007 That's wicked, by far the best colour for those. The switches scare me off though, what do they all do? Quote
artisan Posted June 28, 2007 Author Posted June 28, 2007 it sounds absolutely effin ace,the sheer amount of tones available is incredible & bulid quality is extremely good too,& it plays like a dream. the only thing wrong with it is a little bit of laquer missing from the top edge of the neck near the nut (chipped off) but it came with a fender gig bag (its brand new btw) & i paid £480.00 for it. bloody bargain eh ?

EdwardHimself Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 wow if i didn't know any better i would have thought that was an old bass. Fender really did get what they wanted with this one, didn't they? Quote

Viper Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 It is amongst the basses I'm tempted to get - the proof in the pudding will be the playing! Quote
