*Alder MIJ Jazz Body - very light - nice persimmon finish.
*Warmoth "AAA" flame, neck and fingerboard, Super Jazz neck, with satin nitro finish, graphite truss rod, stainless steel frets, pearloid block inlays, and PEARLOID BINDING!!!.
*Hipshot Ultralites with D-tuner.
*Pinup laser-etched neck plate w/gasket.
*Seymour Duncan Antiquity II pups, "stealth" in white covers.
*Badass II chrome bridge.
*CTS 250K solid shaft pots, with Sprague Orange Drop 0.047mf tone cap.
*All cloth wiring
*Gold Swithcraft jack.
*Dunlop Straploks.
*I am changing out the knobs to the Allparts heavy knurled chrome barrel knobs.
*Total weight - 7 lbs. 6 oz.!!
*Jason, over at Too Many Guitars (Stone Mountain, Georgia), put her ("Pearl") together for me. He did a great job. He stained the white pearl 'guard and control plate to match the pearloid of the neck (as it is finished with the satin nitro).
*I currently have Fender pure nickel round wounds on her.

Brand new 2012 Geddy Lee Jazz Bass.

|  | Registered User | | | | I'm in for the 4th time. Had a junky beater 90s MIM J for a while, a 70s RI J, and a Geddy. This one is my favorite so far. Mostly because the neck isn't too skinny.  |

I tried an Ibanez SR300 for a few years. It was nice, but I never bonded with it or the sound. The Jazz is a whole new animal though, and I'm loving every minute of it.
