I play death/grind and I am in the market for a 4-String Jazz. |

|  | Fender when I have to. Spector when I want to. | | Join Date: Oct 2005 Location: Holyoke, MA | | | Eerie Von (ex Danzig) comes to mind and when Juan Alderete was John Alderete in Racer X, he ripped that Jazz up like nobody's business.

His basses utilize the standard J pickup pattern. Maybe I'm the only one who notices such things.  |

If you've seen the "Show your J-Bass" threads around here, you'd see where I'm coming from.  |

Juan Alderete
Martin Mendez
Les Claypool
Tim Commerford
Um . . . that's all I can think of. Only Mendez and Commerford use J-basses exclusively. Geddy has his Ric, Wal, and Steinberger, Claypool has his crazy Carl Thompsons, and Alderete has any number of hacked up Fenders. What's funny is Alderete's main bass today is a Geddy Lee signature Jazz, based on Geddy Lee's main bass today. |
