    The official "Show your basses" thread part 19!

    Ha thank you! Oddly beautiful sounds good to me. The JV Squier plays like a dream, but really you can't lose with an MIJ Fender / Squier from this era. The '88 Precision is almost just as good! Yeah this was a standard colour on JV's! The funny thing is that red may be my least favourite...

    Rough patch on Jazz bass neck.

    Hello, I bought an MIM Fender Jazz recently, and it's great apart from the finish of the neck between frets 5-8. The skunk stripe felt as if it was very slightly protruding from the neck itself and I could feel it whilst playing. I took some 0000 steel wool to it when has made it nicer...
