Most of them used to be mine but are no longer with me. I ordered the Limelight because I desperately wanted a Shoreline Gold 60's P. The Limelight is a really good bass - very well made and great sounding. But it had to go when a pre-CBS Lake Placid Blue Precision crossed my path: the one shown above. My vintage Fender rotation started about five years ago with a Black/Maple 1975 Precision (I put a black PG on it, Roger Waters style): Later I traded it in for a really cool 1968 Telecaster Bass (black refin): Parallel to the '75 P I had a '74 Jazz: Both the Tele and the Jazz had to go in favour of a 1965 Precision: That one feels and sounds fantastic - I probably should have kept it. But then the 1964 LPB came along, which I could not let pass, since a pre-CBS custom colour Precision has always been my dream bass. So I traded the Limelight and the 1965 P. 2015 was a very good year (job-wise), so I was able to invest in a beat-up 1964 Jazz that sounded huge: 2017 was another good year, so when I saw the 1956 Precision (another dream bass) at Andy Baxter's, I sold the '64 Jazz to finance it: I think with the Lake Placid Precision and the 1956 Single Coil I sort of reached the top of the ladder and the rotation might come to an end. At least on the Precision side. Now that I think about it, I don't have a decent Jazz Bass at the moment. And I also find the Competition series Mustangs really cool ... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisanthony1211 Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 So here is my 71 Jazz bass refinished in candy Apple red I got from a fellow basschatter a couple of months ago. She had a reissue pickguard on when I got her which I replaced with a genuine 69 tort pickguardwhich I got from Axel in Germany, and the soldering was quite shoddy which I’ve redone, I’ve also shielded all the cavities so she is now as quiet as a mouse. String with Rotosound 77 Jazz flats this is my main gigging bass, she is the “bomb”. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

josie Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Can't compete with the serious vintage stuff above, but I love my 1992 Jazz Aerodyne, and eyes are out on stalks every time I gig her :-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josie Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 1992 Jazz Plus V. A fairly rare beast - an experimental top-range model only made 1989-94, and the 5s 1990-94. This one still has the original Fender Lace Sensor Jazz Bass pickups and Philip Kubicki 9 volt active pre-amp - many of them have been "improved" by swapping these for something more conventional. Sadly too heavy for me - I should really get around to trying to sell it :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassbiscuits Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I have only one these days. A 1969-70 P bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jono Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 (edited) Interesting history to this bass. I bought it from Billy Lunn from the Subways. Charlotte Cooper played it on a couple of tracks on their first album before getting a Lakland deal. They bought it from Ian Broudie who produced their debut album. The Lightning Seeds bassist played it in the 90’s on TFI Friday at least 3 times including the famous performance of Three Lions with Skinner and Baddiel just after England were knocked out of Euro 96. Plays and sounds great, it is a 1980 with a poor quality neck joint, a random Coventry post code/serial number etched on the neck and random holes drilled on the front. However who cares for this level of mojo... Plus it still smells of smoke whatever I do to clean it...

BrunoBass Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Here’s my number one bass, my MIM Fender Jazz Deluxe. I love it, it’s everything I want a Jazz to be. It plays and sounds amazing. The guy I got it from had it from new, but not for long; he was frightened to take it out live so it was in pristine condition when I got it. I’ve been giving it plenty of gig mileage since!
