NBD x 2

[JohnFitzgerald]

I really must stay off Basschat...

 

Shouldn't complain though, I very recently managed to snag two basses that have been on my list for a long time.
Namely, a Highway One Fender Jazz and a Musicman SUB.

Both USA built, both the bottom of their domestically built range.

Their modest new price tags were reflected in their used values and I couldn't be more pleased.

I'll put my 6 string basses to the side for a bit and enjoy a simpler life.

There may be one or two others, but a 2x NBD declaration, I know. The world's gone mad !

Look great, and noticeable how much more compact the SUB is. I’ve found that the shape of Stingrays suits me far better as a player, however the sound I want is that of Fenders.

I fancy you are setting a dangerous precedent for this forum. 

 

I admire your style sir.

The funny thing is, this Jazz is no shrinking violet. It wants to be heard and has quite an in your face voice. Quite unlike other Jazz basses I've had.
The neck is easier than the SUB, which has a slightly chunkier neck, but also has a 'listen to me' voice too.

Both great in their own way.

Each of them for a price somewhere a Squier and a Mex. Not a difficult one to get past the steering committee.
