this one is out of the runnings for me personally. Looking into 80s MIJ jazzes at the moment.

Does that seem like a thumb rash? Looks awful and accidental to me. This is 100% the bass I played in July of 2019 and I am 100% certain that mark was not there. Honestly it looks awful, I would not even have picked it up when I was there. Seems like more of an accident. Besides the point, I...

Hi y’all, I played this exact bass, ‘64 Fender Custom Shop Jazz Bass 2011, at the Chicago Music Exchange this past summer. It’s been up for sale on Reverb since. Looks like since the last time I checked on the price, someone dropped it or dropped something on it and there is a big gouge by the...

Thanks for the reply. For the last hour, I have been looking into the E series '80s RI MIJ jazz basses. Found one G series that looks nice, but a tidge out of the price range. Did a quick search and not seeing ANY 2002 MIMs anywhere. I will have to look into the Highway Ones. Kinda stuck on...

I have heard lots of people talk about how these are as close to the neck feel and general playability of their original 60s jazz basses. Can anyone confirm or deny these types of statements from their own experiences? Ideally, I would like an actual '60s jazz bass or Custom Shop '64, but it's...

Lol I wanna hear this song though

Thank you for the reply!! Practicing with songs I know and songs on the radio are good ideas! The type of jamming I am referring to is mostly where we are just making songs up on the spot, pure improv, not jamming off existing songs. All original, this is how we’ve written a lot of songs...

I can jam if I stay in one key or if I am aware of the chords beforehand or if I am leading the chord changes—however, I struggle immensely when I am needing to follow along with someone playing the guitar or keyboard and they are playing riffs, chords, jamming along, etc. I get lost and find...

I picked up a newer used V-4B a month ago, and paired it with a used SVT-410 HLF. Couldn’t be happier! Welcome to the club!

[pics to come] After many months of deliberation, I’ve finally made what I feel have been the best choices I could for my needs on a limited budget. Just wanted to share my giddiness... :laugh::smug::hyper::bassist::D:woot::roflmao::thumbsup: Just picked up my V-4B reissue and a (beater)...

I agree “cheap” is very subjective. As I am broke as heck currently, my version of cheap is 150-300 USD. I don’t have a lot of (really any) extra cash—I have to sell other gear to even purchase this cab.

Any suggestions? I’m in the market. For use with an Ampeg V4B 100w tube head. Will either be buying 1 or 2 depending on price. Also considering a 210, if anyone’s got any recommendations on those. Thanks!

Hey! I like that idea. That way I’d be able to customize my set up for whatever the situation requires. Was getting a little stressed thinking of hauling a 90-something-pound cab in the snow. Thanks man! :thumbsup:

Types of cabs I will be using—this is still totally not decided either. Most of what I will be using this rig for will be jamming, practicing and recording in a small house. The band will be hopefully playing some gigs soon, will be starting small, hopefully will be getting larger and larger...

Srsly thankin bout buyin one and I was worried 100w is not gon be enough power ... Then again, I’m starting to think it will be enough (for my current purposes at least)!
