Sweet! I feel kinda sad for that one off to left, it looks a little left out. I could adopt it and give it a good home

That's my son's squier 60's classic vibe jazz bass, a very cheap bass but a quality instrument. He's slapping the backside off that at the moment and he loves it

Just picked up a squire cv p bass. Ditched the tort guard for an all white one. I'll have to get a tug bar and pickup cover to hide the holes.

Thanks Cougmeister! Picked this pbass up a few days ago and wow. First impression of the pbass is an oh yeah! the jazz and pbass both have the Seymour Duncan QP's. The jazz has the Leo Quan Badass bridge and the pbass has the Fender US high mass bridge. Both play like butta!

I thought that was a CV by the looks of the bridge. Those are awfully tempting, I may get one of those.

I try to gig once a month for fun with friends but it's across the board from Top 40 covers, Jazz, Club events playing to DJ tracks, to reggae originals, r&b, hip hop, acoustic guitar duo...

This small family of 2 lets me do all of that.

Classic Sterling 4, and a pj fretless by Jake Goede from Birdsong Guitars, both strung with D'Addario Chromes and tuned down a whole step.

That custom jazz puts the rest to shame, especially with the Status neck! I bet it sounds nice too.

Hi, I had the custom 5 piece body made 10years ago by Brian Eastwood, The guy who makes "Bender guitars" . It's made up of a Bubinga core,and macassar ebony bookmatched front and back...It weighs about the same as a small tank...very very heavy but the tone is superb.

Only had the graphite neck fitted for a couple of weeks ago so still getting used to it after years playing with vintage fenders.....great for slapping though

alembic63 · #**676** 12-30-2012, 03:01 AM

That is a stunning piece of wood.
