Just testing the waters with this. I just recently started playing. I purchased a Fender MIM 70's Jazz Bass. I also built this bass because I wanted to understand the bass and how it worked including the setup process. I've been playing both and just prefer the Fender.
Warmoth body and neck
Gotoh 201 bridge
Fender custom shop 60's jazz bass pickups
Schaller BML tuners
Schaller strap locks
Hipshot string retainer
Electronics built by Starr Guitar Systems
DR lowrider strings
There are 2 issues with this bass.
1. D string tuner gets a little stiff when there is tension on the string. Still works, just stiff.
2. While building I made an "extra" hole by accident. Filled with wood putty and attempted to paint with nail polish. Color didn't match as good as I expected. Shown in pics.
Other than those 2 issues, bass is as new. Would like to sell but also open to trades. If shipped, bass will be shipped in a hard case. Will consider cash offers as well as trades. Trade interests are 4 strings only. I like LTD's.
