Hello TBers, If these basses were 5 strings I'd be keeping them. I've had a lot of fun making them into killer beasts!! But, now it's time for a 4 string player to make 'em sing on a regular basis.
First is my SOLD SOLD SOLD
'99 US Fender Jazz in near mint condition, one tiny paint chip about 1/3 of the size of a pencil eraser on the back side behind where your rt forearm rests.
All new upgrades that I installed just a couple months ago:
1) Audere JZ3 VB 3B pre
2) Badass III bridge w/ string-thru-body option
3) Dimarzio Model J pups (w/ series or parallel options, currently wired up in series. A screwdriver to the Audere & they can be parallel).
4) Hipshot D-tuner
5) Straplocks
Pro setup w/ custom strings to better accomodate the DADG tuning (115,85,65,45). Bass sounds HUGE w/ the Audere and pups upgrade!! Comes w/ GATOR STYLE HSC. Don't mind the tape on the PG, I was marking off where to drill for a pup cover. SOLD SOLD SOLD!!!.
Next is my 70's era "Lawsuit" era Aria Jazz copy from (I'm assuming) that famous Matsumoto (sp?) factory.
It has a great 3 piece super straight, RW fretboard blocked/bound, maple neck w/ what feels like Geddy dimensions. It had some crappy chrome pups in it, so I tricked it out BIG TIME!!!
1) NEW Seymour Duncan pups: 1/4 lb P and MM
2) NEW Fender Aerodyne PG, factory cut for a P pup
3) NEW era correct Fender-style tuners
4) the pots, plate, and knobs from the '99 Jazz listed above
5) fully shielded
$319 shipped to lower 48 w/ a cheap case that'll do the job, but is not the sturdiest thing.
Yeah, there's a few scratches on the PG that the flash ACCENTUATED, LOL. Any bass w/ a SD MM and 1/4lb P HAS to be SLAPPED a little, hehehe.
