NBD - Tantalisingly turquoise

[invertigo]

Well, close enough to turquoise anyway!

Nothing fancy here, just a Fender Player series Jazz in Tidepool, absolutely fell in love seeing the colour on a P bass in store, so I had to have a J in it. Excuse the crud photo, I was home late and more concerned with playing than photographing 😁

Quick setup done as the action was a bit high for me, but the relief seems spot on from the factory.

On a related note, the pickups seem to be a bit low and aren't raising when loosening off the screws... I assume they probably just need a bit more foam sticking underneath, as the screws keep coming up but the pickups dont?

It really doesn't come across very well on camera, probably not helped by the very yellow lighting in my lounge. In some lights its blue, some lights it looks green-ish, some lights it looks almost grey-blue.

Either way, its a lovely colour in the flesh and I'm loving the sound and feel from the instrument. Certainly a noticeable step up over the Ibanez GSR200 I had.

I love the colour but didn’t like the white scratch plate on my Jaguar so it was swapped for a black one.

Might have to try out a black plate myself now, and here's me thinking I was done spending for a while... 😅
