Bassassin Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Very nice, I do like a nice pearl block neck, works well with the body colour. I'd have gone for DiMarzio Model Js and a Schaller 3D myself, though. And a pearl plate to match the blocks. No sticker. Jon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkHeart Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Looks great, slightly concerned about your bridge placement though, if its not in the right place then intonation goes out of the window, id make sure that its right asap other than that im loving the green and tort.

Shaggy Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Excellent - liking that a lot, though agree with Bassassin that a pearl pickguard might work better, and def needs a decal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I've come to realise that - I set it up properly last night and it was a bit of a bugger to intonate tbh & also it just doesnt look right IMO so will be re-fettling & repositioning the bridge tonight!

I've got two Oly white Jazzes already. I've ordered a decal last night - will offer it up and make a decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gafbass02 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Looks great, having not long finished a jazz bass build myself I'm loving it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
