Just put them on her yesterday!

Totally hate it... Mine is over at the heel and it has the "plus sign" nut (not sure what its called) and is really a pain to adjust. But there's a problem with it - the neck is still concave, but the truss rod is maxed out. I might be bringing it to a luthier soon, but just for an idea, does...

He used it in most of the songs in the itunes original session video thingy. It looks way cooler with the sticker in my opinion! http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewVideo?id=187114490&s=143441

I'm 1 to 3! I'd get another P-bass if I had more money, but right now my jazz bass is awesome enough :)

My friend asked me to help him in a band which lacks a guitarist and boy, does it feel different! Its like, it feels really different to be taking the lead! And not to mention I screwed up a lot with the chords and everything, haha.. Well I found out that its good to put your bass away for a...

Opps so sorry, Here you go You know quite a lot about japanese basses yea? Could you tell me what one of these is worth now? Even if its a Squier Thanks a lot!

Yup the silver series looks exactly like the one on the squier, where the contour body logo should be, I have a pic of it The guy told me its some logo Fender used when they sold the bass to non- US countries, so probably you're right! The serial number matches the Fender Japan coding. How's...

Hey! So sorry for digging up this old thread, but I need urgent help! A guy offered me a black 1991 Fender Jazz bass, but on the top of the headstock is a Silver series logo. Logo is Fender though, and Im wondering if this is a genuine mij Fender, or an mij Squier that has the logo replaced? I...

Wow, I thought MIMs were the only ones with the routing... My 2005 mij looks a bit like jaco (according to the shop guy) without the routing and the 3 tone colour under the pickguard.. http://www.flickr.com/photos/35526465@N03/3580902522/in/set-72157614022693041/

It looks bobbly!

Wow awesome neck and body colour! It looks like a 70's neck with 60's tuners, and that imo is my ideal neck, haha. How does the bass sound with the vm body?

Omg... that is soo vintage gas, I want a pre-cbs jazz bass so much! I have an extremely soft spot for those that are worn out evenly. Though i'd guess I won't possibly have one of those!

Cool, so I shall just stick to electric then. Do you have a specific title of a book that I can learn from to start with?

Awesome bass all in all, for its price range. i love the paint job on that one, it looks of real good quality. Only thing i didn't really like it is the sound and, it's just too small for me. I'd prefer the jazz bass shape though. Neck is great, didn't give me any problems. Though the machine...

Thanks for the advices! So do you guys suggest that using a double bass instead of an electric bass would be more appropriate for the jazz songs?
