Whaddya think?Will it work?

[squire5]

I have FrankenJazz bass,sunburst,tort pickguard,rosewood fingerboard,the works.I really like this bass but I feel that the neck is not as good as it could be.I've seen a neck on the Bay,but heres the problem.It's maple,with maple fingerboard and dot inlays.Has anyone ever seen a Jazz with this combination.I'm trying to imagine what it might look like.Any sunburst Jazz with a maple fingerboard usually has block inlays,but I've never seen one with dots.Thoughts anybody?Is there anybody out there who's good at Photoshop who could provide a sort of preview?Cheers guys.

They do exist

Check out some of the Jaco dvd on youtube, he's playing a maple neck (granted it's a P neck but you'll get the idea) with a sunburst body.

They look mighty fine if you ask me, I'd love one!

Jase,I hunted through the book"The Fender Bass:an illustrated history" and could find no reference to such a beast.I must admit,it looks pretty sharp.Think I'll go for it!
