cocco Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Dang that's pretty. Natural with blocks is one of my favourite colour schemes for a Jazz. Great grain on this one too. Congratulations! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed slightly tighter (and, in fact, weaker) lows and a minor increase in brightness that I love.

sshorepunk Posted April 22 Author Share Posted April 22 Bridge is staying! I know the original is correct for year but the badass is a good change in this bass and something I’ve done in the past Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misdee Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Back in 1975 adding a Badass to your Jazz Bass was a state-of-the-art upgrade. Badass stays! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubinga5 Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 I bought one of these brand new from Guitar Guitar I think back in 2012 for £1199. The thinnest most comfortable neck on any Jazz bass ever. It sounded great with the stock bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you managed to find one in the end. Likewise here. My first proper bass was a maple neck jazz but after that I’ve played rosewood exclusively. Recently bought a P with a maple neck and love the crispness in the attack with rounds on. Can totally see why people end up with huge collections of various permutations.
