Go home Jackson - You’re drunk...(so bad it deserves it’s own thread...)

Always liked their JJ bass, again, instead of the current horrors.

This really appeals to me, what scale length were they? It's a far more sensible offering rather than those horrible Bitsa efforts. Did Jackson offer a YTS scheme at anytime?

I think they’re 32” - this is a pretty uncommon finish, normally seen in black or black with ghost flames which changed orange to purple.

this one is on reverb at about £650 currently.

I'm not really understanding all the hatred. 

Yeah the lime green is horrid. I could live without the point headstock.

But the actual body is far more attractive than most standard dull as dishwater Fenders. 

[thodrik]

That Jackson is so bad that I really want one.

How to get sued by three bass manufacturers?

They're Fender-owned, so that's one down

I generally like most variations of the violin bass but this one just doesn't work for me - 1960's Teisco.

That wonky neck pickup, body too wide and the bridge cover

Agreed. And the square-cornered control plate. I hate it just as badly on real Höfners, it would look so much better with rear-routed access to the pots and wiring and direct-mount pots. 

[BigRedX]

Isn't the bass in the OP exactly want everyone wants? A Rickenbacker that is essentially a P-Bass?

Well Done Jackson/Fender that truly is the most horrendous thing I've seen since ………

IC. TBH, "CBXNT DX IV" is a fitting name for such a [censored] bass 😁

What were they smoking?

Ok, the finish of the green one is called "Absinth Frost", well, that explains a lot 😉

Yep, that was never a winner, was it? 😂

Or the Ssangyong Rodius... the car described by Clarkson as looking like it had 'been bottled in a pub fight and then stitched back together by a blind man'. 
And yet, remarkably, still better looking than that Jackson bass.

But in the family canon...they had this Ric-inspired gem...they could’ve done a rework.

That’s actually really nice, albeit a bit too 4005 derived.....

Hmmmmm.....the missus has something that looks like that, in the drawer of her bedside cupboard.   Who’d have thought she was a closet bassist?

That looks like it was made from a boxing glove.  Punchy tone, I expect.

Our previous queen was driven around in one of these, until she had it replaced with a stretched Volvo S80 of the first generation:
