    Peavey Foundation/Fender JP-90

    Hi, Which one do you think is best? They're both US made with a slim jazz neck. I have the opportunity to get a jp-90 for $325 or a foundation for $220(+tax/shipping). Or should I just wait for an opportunity on a precision lyte ... ? Thanks.

    Peavey Foundation Mahogany + Rosewood ?

    I know I'm off-topic on my own post but... How does a Fender jp-90 compare to a foundation ? There is one on ebay but the guy live nearby so I could pick-it up for a little cheaper: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fender-USA-JP-90-4-String-Bass-Guitar-/321341103306?pt=Guitar&hash=item4ad16c1cca

    Peavey Foundation Mahogany + Rosewood ?

    Does this mean it is not a good one ? I would like to get one but the natural finish are the only Foundation I like.

    Fender Precision Lyte Deluxe

    Is it some kind of Precision Special ? It has a jazz bass neck and a jazz bass bridge pickup right ?

    Used Bass on a Budget

    Tell me if I'm overthinking it but I'm starting to think about assembling my one bass... I found a nice precision body (surf green) to which I could add a Mighty Mite Jazz bass neck... Is it crazy ?

    Used Bass on a Budget

    I actually really like the sunburst MIM that jazzbassguy has (specially with a tort pick guard :D) and there is some used one GC for $270... I'm gonna go and try both CV and MIM tomorrow even though I might not see the differences because of my skills :atoz:

    I like them both but from what I've heard the MIM jazz bass can be a hit or miss and most of the time the CV are better.

    Used Bass on a Budget

    The problem isn't much about driving. I just wanted to know which one was the 'best'. People seems to like the g&l better but when listening to oldrookie's link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WT4AP58jC5o and comparing with this one: Invalid Link Removed I seems to like the squier sound...

    Used Bass on a Budget

    I thought about a MIM standard but I mainly heard bad thing about it, maybe a deluxe would be good choice ? What kind of Japanese bass are you referring too ? Aren't Fender jazz bass MIJ rare and expensive ? For now I think I might take a CV on guitar center. Does any one know how it...
