Stub Mandrel Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Flea Jazz. Unlike most signature basses it offers an excellent value way to get a vintage style and sounding bass. Good enough that I won't be buying an AVII Jazz anytime soon, despite having an AVII Precision. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way it is a small compromise, and an easy one Their clip tuners (Fender colour and Daddario Eclipse) are identical aside from packaging. I have one of each. I believe they make Fender strings.

I have one of the older blue ones- however I believe that logo is under the lacquer coat, and therefore isn’t. I suppose if you know someone capable of vinyl wrapping it?…… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the standout for me from that list, the boy Miller certainly knows something about tone 😎 He has a lovely tone. Hearing that was enough to have me taking out my active jazz bass yesterday. I love the jazz tone but the active preamp (currently a 3 Leaf Anima rather than the stock Fender preamp) allows for a lot more exploration and nuance and puts it into similar territory to the Marcus Miller bass in the video (or, unexpectedly, StingRay territory).

I had one, lovely lovely bass, just too heavy for me and someone did say to me about drunk idiots that hate West Ham, would they start on you at a gig? I didn';t have any trouble at the 3 gigs I used it at. It's was too dang heavy and had to go 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B width at the nut, rest of it chunky as 👌. Great sound due to the heavy Ash body but too heavy for me to live with one unfortunately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
