NancyJohnson Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 As I posted last week, I collected this this morning. Swapped the white guard over for a Jeannie's black pearl (fantastic fit BTW), put on some Dunlop strap locks, and restrung. Sounds lovely. VERY happy. Lakland hard case as well. Bless my good lady.

OutToPlayJazz Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 Very nice, Paul. I played the one Mart had a while ago & that was one of the nicest sounding jazz-clones I'd ever played. Great score, mate! Rich. Quote
silverfoxnik Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 Very sexy looking bass Paul! I had one of the blue finish DJ5s and that was a very nice bass but I think the black finish is much more stylish.. IIRC, mr_russ has the same bass as yours but with a maple neck? Quote
NancyJohnson Posted December 6, 2008 Author Posted December 6, 2008 Thanks for the comments. I'd been gassing for one of these for about a year - in anticipation I actually bought the pickguard in the spring! I've been noodling on it most of the day - I was supposed to have been playing at someone's houseparty this evening, but that didn't happen (which was disappointing as I was looking forward to using it there). Neck profile is delicious...it's a very comfortable, playable bass, with nice grunt. My Precision is officially retired. P Quote

Machines Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 It looks hot with that black perloid plate.. Jeannies did you say ? Must have a look for my 55-02. It has one on from the original owner but I always like a change of clothes ! Quote

If only it had been available with a SR5 neck and 34" scale I think I would've found my ideal 5 string. Quote
