I love this bass! Jow.

Posted a tentative note on the TB Thunderbird thread to see if any of the Americans were interested.

A few told me to go ahead,1 asked if it was a sales pitch

Let you know what the reaction is.

Cheers Davie, I've joined in on the fun over there.
1st time I've posted there for a couple of years I think

[kodiakblair]

Not too bad a reaction

Funny every time I click the "show ignored content" button over there I see I was right to have those folk on "ignore"

[Rikki_Sixx]

I was very interested in these when I was looking for a new bass a while ago, great to see them getting a positive reaction - and becoming available with new options and colours! I ended up going for something else in the end while testing some things out in a shop, so hopefully soon we'll see these stocked in brick n' mortar shops where people can have a noodle!

Keep up the ace work Jow, can't wait to one day try one of these!

You know what's great about being a bassist right now?

There's tons of choice from the smaller companies and it's really nice and endearing to see
someone like Jow attempting something new, instead of just offering numerous P+J body shapes
that I keep seeing from smaller manufactures. Haven't got the cash for one of these right now,
but if I could get one with a P configuration I'd be interested in one of these.

A chap playing the short scale version.
I believe Jow has put a 10% discount on his current stock as he's going to concentrate on the custom options route.

Tempting!


Will see if I can shift a few pedals to raise some funds for one, be a potential guinea pig for you guys.

Sell your MIJ 'Arry, buy a short and a long scale and have some loot spare

Think Jow's sold one or two current stock in the last couple of days.

Thanks for the shout out Karl.

I'm waiting for the supplier to get back to me regarding the sea foam green.

I would appreciate anymore ideas anyone as on different colour schemes for my next order.

Congrats you free man you.
NBD review asap please

Other colours are now available!

If you did a short scale in black w/ matching headstock I'd bite! Two pickups would be nice too, but that's a decent modding platform at least.

Just seen this thread. I do like these. A black and maple short scale would be tempting.
[/quote]Just about to put in a order for some custom basses. If your interested let me know.

How is it?

[Number6]

Not bad.....i'm using mine to modify so it's in bits already

[Number6]

I have stripped down the Dirtybird.....i have an EMG TBHZ on order and will fit and remove the pickguard. I will probably fit a Gibson style cover over the pup/strings. The tuners and bridge are decent quality out of the box but the nut is far too high and needs removing and reducing in height.

[uk_lefty]

Any update on the Jows?

I'm happy with mine but i wanted it as a modification bass.

All the basic supplied stuff is fine.

My only criticism really was that the nut needed to be reduced in height a couple of mm but all sorted quite easily.

[Bass_Guardian]

Any more update on these?

[prowla]

Well, it's great that it isn't just a samey-samey P or J ass, but, to paraphrase Arnie, it sure is an ugly mofo!
