    Do the recent Fender American Jazz Deluxes still have a severe hum problem?

    Indeed that does. Cheers, man. :) Gonna spring for the standard. Maybe get something like a Lakland or a Sadowsky down the line for an active bass. Only wish I could find the maple necked V-string version in more colors. Apparently, Fender discontinued mystic blue and only have black available...

    Hey DiabolusInMusic, Correct, I'm referring to the notorious hum/buzz that is (or was) in the current production USA Deluxe Jazz/P-Bass models. https://www.google.com/search?q=Fender+deluxe+jazz+hum&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8#q=Fender+deluxe+jazz+hum+site:www.talkbass.com I'm familiar with and can deal...

    Do the recent Fender American Jazz Deluxes still have a severe hum problem?

    Guess they still do. :D I ask as I can't try them out for myself. I'll probably order a standard if this is the case. Although I prefer the body and neck upgrade specs on the deluxe, I'd rather get the standard if I'll be having grounding issues with the former. The rooms I play in aren't the...

    Do the recent Fender American Jazz Deluxes still have a severe hum problem?

    Hi all, Quick question: Looking to pull the trigger on a brand new 2014/15 American Deluxe Jazz V, and am wondering if Fender ever made any improvements to fix the buzzing issue that I've read so much about. Thank you in advance! :)

    Fender Rumble Club

    Darn, I didn't think about that. haha I might still wait until NAMM to see what's up, but will go ahead and pull the trigger on the 115 if the 210 pre-orders are overwhelming. Anyway, thanks so much for chiming in and I look forward to joining you guys in the Rumble club. :D

    Fender Rumble Club

    Cheers! Good point about NAMM. I'll do just that. Ah, I meant that I have about $300 in amazon gift cards from X-mas, so I can't go over unless I bring out my credit card. Since I'll now be waiting until sometime after NAMM, I should be able to fit a bit extra into my budget. Unfortunately, no...

    Fender Rumble Club

    Hi all. New to this forum and to the bass gear world. :) I bought myself a used Aguilar Tone Hammer 350 head for Christmas. What do you think about pairing it with a Fender Rumble 1x15 Cabinet v3? I have just enough in gift cards to grab it off of amazon and can't spend more than it's current...

    Lakland DJ5 vs 55-60

    Hi all, So I'm pretty set on one of these two. There aren't any music shops where I live, so I can't try them out before buying. Hoping some folks here could help me out by shedding some light on a few quick questions. :) 1. I notice both have the same pickups. I take it they will pretty much...
