Sarah5string Posted June 6, 2021 Posted June 6, 2021 It's been a hell of a weekend. It was my birthday Friday and I was offered a place at ACM to study musicianship with Bass, so my boyfriend bought me a new bass as a Happy Birthday/Congratulations present! My very first Fender! A Jazz 'American professional II'. I'm in love 40 Quote

Lozz196 Posted June 6, 2021 Posted June 6, 2021 Well done! I had the v1 of these (and also still have a v1 but with maple) and they are great basses, if the v2 is anything like them then you have a cracking bass there. 1 Quote

Brother Jones Posted June 10, 2021 Posted June 10, 2021 For the anally-retentive (like me) perfect-strings-through-pole-pieces Jazz people, that's Sadowsky level stuff. 1 Quote

Marc S Posted June 10, 2021 Posted June 10, 2021 Congrats on getting the ACM placement, on your birthday, and of course - happy NBD Also, your boyfriend is definitely a keeper. There's absolutely NOTHING I could do which would encourage Mrs S to buy me a brand new Fender bass lol 1 Quote
