Boodang Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 I think I've found my new GaS! Heat treated roasted maple bound neck, vintage finish and great sound. Now, where's that piggy bank. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazed Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Sounds expensive..... looks good though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boodang Posted December 5, 2021 Author Share Posted December 5, 2021 Standard price starts at £1800, which is not silly money but.... starts is the appropriate word though and this is far from standard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkHeart Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 A Fender Blacktop Jazz can be had for a fraction of the price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The head agrees with you but unfortunately the heart... that's going 'look at the roasted, bound neck, the pearloid scratch and the gold vintage finish blah blah blah buy buy buy!'.

DarkHeart Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Personally I`d go with the wallet but it`s your choice, I had a blacktop and ....I didn`t have it long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boodang Posted December 7, 2021 Author Share Posted December 7, 2021 As an update on this I messaged hotwire basses to ask about options and they said yes, they could do it as a set neck or through neck. Not a fan of bolt on construction (it's too bulky when you're up the dusty end for me) so looks like I could fulfill a dream of having a set neck jazz bass, but not sure at what price as I haven't asked that question yet.
