Oh my GOD! I think I just fell in love . . . I've been hesitant about Jazz basses, despite them being awesome, simply because none really caught my attention look- and sound-wise . . . the Geddy came close. But man, is that thing SMOKING. I wonder if they'll make a non custom-shop version (i.e. one that I don't have to pay over $1200 for . . .). Thank you so much for that link!

I think the bassist for Nevermore uses a 5 string Jazz.

HI

Ian Hill of Judas Priest always used a early '70s burst J with black blocks and binding any time I went to their concerts in my youth
