Clarky72 Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Not strictly right, it was new a month ago but I've only just got around to getting the pics up here... Precision body Jazz neck, reverse headstock Double MusicMan humbuckers Black over white nitro relic finish Fender logo on headstock (primarliy to annoy a few of my purist friends) Its not Mark's normal retro replica build, but its what I wanted. Its a beast, its passive and is stupidly powerful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karlfer Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Lovin that Steve, congrats fella , bet that's a real powerhouse. I had an upside down headstock, freaked me out. Using furthest tuning peg, attempting to tune to G when of course it should be E But there again I'm an old confused fool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

essexbasscat Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Very cool. You also get the A string under the tree, which in theory, allows a lower action Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sblueplanet Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Be interesting to know how the bass plays strung as BEAD with the longer string length on the lower strings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigwan Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 [quote name='sblueplanet' timestamp='1467758723' post='3086072'] Be interesting to know how the bass plays strung as BEAD with the longer string length on the lower strings. [/quote] The speaking length of the string is no different and neither is the string tension so it will make no difference whatsoever...
