Do you find your Jaguar custom shop bass is worth the money. Also what did you pay for yours I dont want to bother a shop before I would be ready to buy?
Thanks
And I hope your moms doing good. |

| | | | Nah, just buy stock. Stock one rocks. I can't tell you what I paid for mine, because I am a Fender endorser and am unable to reveal that stuff. Sorry.

I was thinking of bypassing all the junk and just putting some stack knobs in with some new pickups...with a badass or a hipshot vintage bridge. |

| | | | Just use volume and tone, pickup switching also defeated, both set to on, normal sound (I dunno if that's serial or parallel, but just whatever the standard J-bass type thing is). All the knobs on top are disabled, obviously, since that's the "active" portion.

|  | Registered User | | | | | Why did you do that, rather then just keep it set to passive with both on?
Did you find a tone difference from removing all of the other stuff, or was it just for ease?

| | | | It was so we didn't have extraneous wiring, capacitance, and basically "trouble" in the internals of the bass when you're doing 2 1/2 hour shows with Nine Inch Nails. Less variables.

| | | | Looks cool. Different neck shape. Can always re-connect electronics later. Big body mass, kind of a big sound that might be unique to the Jag, not sure.

Is the neck the same thickness as a standard, run-of-the-mill MIA Jazz? Bigger body mass than the Jazz? I wonder how my hands would adjust from playing a thin Geddy neck to the Jag bass... |

I think this may be my favorite bass I've ever owned....
