JohnDaBass Posted June 24, 2023 Posted June 24, 2023 Great show from Royal Blood, BUT ,could someone confirm the Fender Jag basses being used? Lovely looking short scales with the humbucker in the sweet spot. Can anyone enlighten me? Quote
AndyTravis Posted June 24, 2023 Posted June 24, 2023 Think they’re made for him… Not sure if they’d do him a release as a signature model? 1 Quote

Burns-bass Posted June 24, 2023 Posted June 24, 2023 Gold foil pickups in some of them. Didn’t seem to cheer him up. 2 Quote
Pea Turgh Posted June 25, 2023 Posted June 25, 2023 Also had a Starcaster at some point. My lad is an avid fan, so we’ve watched it twice already 😂 2 Quote
acidbass Posted June 26, 2023 Posted June 26, 2023 Seen a Gretsch short scale (£339 brand new!), a few Fender CS Jaguars with humbuckers, and a white Starcaster bass. Didn't watch the full set tho! 1 Quote

Pea Turgh Posted June 26, 2023 Posted June 26, 2023 Just get a normal Squier Jag and get to it with a router! That’s probably what I’ll end up doing 😂 1 Quote

There's a Squier affinity Jag bass with a single humbucker. https://www.gak.co.uk/en/squier-fsr-affinity-series-jaguar-bass-h-shell-pink/954028?gclsrc=aw.ds&gclid=Cj0KCQjw7uSkBhDGARIsAMCZNJu5kzLrw-jXu0eP6vwyJsPbQP4CUI7M7W-vnpeAaZdm9YnbpjSbnOEaAlxMEALw_wcB I've never played one but as long as the neck is straight I reckon it could be refined/modded into something pretty close to whatever the RB guy is using. 1 Quote

But these Affinity Jag basses are medium scale 32ins and have a huge reputation as upgrade platforms. I'm more interested in a 30ins short scale with two humbuckers. Watching to see people's views on the Squier Rascal to see if it appeals. But the Custom Shop Jags at Royal Blood's show just really hooked me. 1 Quote
Pea Turgh Posted June 26, 2023 Posted June 26, 2023 They did a 30” scale a few years ago - could probably pick one up on fleabay. Then a couple of Artec pickups and a chisel… 1 Quote
AndyTravis Posted August 11, 2023 Posted August 11, 2023 https://www.instagram.com/p/Cvz2rTYrtgV/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== apparently coming soon Mexican 30” wide range humbucker plus another one alder body 1 1 Quote

ped Posted August 11, 2023 Posted August 11, 2023 £1400 - there’s one on Reverb (for some reason it never lets me copy and paste links) 1 Quote
Dazed Posted August 11, 2023 Posted August 11, 2023 Did I read somewhere $1500? Usual ends up a near as dammit straight conversion to GBP. I’d rather get my mitts on one of those Gold wide range humbuckers if their copies of the original Tele ones. Quote
Dazed Posted August 11, 2023 Posted August 11, 2023 Didn’t think they’d been released yet? The reverb link https://reverb.com/uk/item/71033929-fender-limited-edition-mike-kerr-jaguar-bass-tiger-blood-orange-incl-deluxe-gig-bag-with-tiger 1 Quote
