Can I join this group? “1st generation” owner.

Per @twocargar request, my Geddy Fleet: '87 Wal Mark 1, first run of Japanese Geddy signature Jazz (I wish I could find out with the serial # how early it was; I pre-ordered it the day after I read in Bass Player magazine they were being produced), and my 1975 4001 (bought new in 1985, serial #...

I like the UK version for what it is - a UK take and perspective of the bass guitar. This “new” American version under new ... let me guess... UK ownership, simply copies the UK’s style which isn’t going to be helping to connect to American readers. In the issues I’ve received, it seems they are...

I have a Mid-70’s Fender Precision. I think it’s a ‘75 or ‘76 based on some specifics on this bass: very heavy maple body and the white paint faded into a “vintage yellow.” I bought it in a pawnshop in San Diego in 1990. Over the years, it was repainted, pickups replaced, and even more...

Yes sir... my Geddy Lee basses: my 1987 Wal Mach 1 in midnight blue (purchased from a bass player who later was a Grammy winner); my 1975 Rickenbacker 4001, and my Geddy Lee Fender Jazz bass - which must've been one of the first Japanese ones built as I preordered it following day I heard it was...

My Wal is a bolt-on. It's the most amazing sounding bass, and best playing bass I've ever had. And my Fenders, bolt-on and fantastic sounding, too. I have my neck thru Rickenbacker 4001 that has less sustain than either the Wal or my Jazz or Precisions and it feels stiffer. Not sure I can...

Yes sir... I had Fred at the Repair Zone in san Diego string it thru the body back in 1999 or 2000. He did a great job of course. Good eye!

Here is my 1993 MIM Fender Jazz that is clean as well... interesting. I switched the neck to a Jazz Special fretless 10 years ago. Matching black headstock.

Is this case still available?

Can't the Avalon be used as both? That's my understanding.

Thanks very much to you all for the help. I'll make these adjustments and post how it turns out. The Jazz is brand new and I restrung it first thing right out of the box... And had a "dead" E string. So restrung the E and got the chorus. So appears this should be an easy fix. Anyway - thanks...
