That’s pretty good playing right there, @Nebula24 and that bass sounds really good! Diggin the Sabbath 
don’t play much Sabbath these days, as we are doing mostly 90’s and newer rock but we will break out some War Pigs on occasion if someone asks for BS at a gig.

Just checked website and your univox and my jetson have same length 30.5 and nut 1.625. So guessing the necks probably feel very similar though fingerboard is different (maple vs blackwood).
Would love to see a univox or map (out of my price range though) locally. I'm neck picky and so havent done online bass ordering yet. Still shocked the jetsons showed locally and I was able to snag it before anyone else nabbed it.
yeah I’m betting similar feel as well. If the Uni neck had rolled edges I might like it a bit more. Was practicing with it again today and I could get on with it but probably will have it as a backup at gigs or maybe even use it for Eb tunes we do but most the time, I use my Digitech Drop pedal for those tunes.
And yeah great score on the Jetson Jr. I don’t see Used Eastwood’s locally ever.
$300 in near mint condition w eastwood airline strap and Eastwood gigbag. Tiniest scratch at neck/head where it hung on wall holder. Couldn't resist. Easy justification for my 2nd bass.
I diddled around with the Mini-Jazz this morning.
The control cavity looks clean, and the electronics show no obvious flaws.
Jaco style
Thumb rest added, block inlays applied, and restrung with Hofner Short Scale rounds. The slight angle makes the blocks look wonky, but from straight on, they're ok. At least, no one in the audience is gonna notice anything.

NBD! The Music and Arts by my house put this on discount and I could no longer say no! GSRM 5 stringer for $129 basically new? Yes please!
It was new on a mistake delivery and not even in the store 2 months. Apart from needing a lil tlc, it is in near mint condition. I'd been playing it every week while my kid had their music lesson so I feel like I already know this bass a bit.
So I now officially would like to join the club after stalking y'all for months!

Got any old desks or dressers you're not using? Can you find one at the local recycling center (dump)? You could drill out drawer knobs to fit -
If you're serious about termite spray, here's stuff to look at.
Great idea, I should be able to find some in my brothers barn. The termite thing was my attempt at humor. Thanks
I would think sewing machine bobbins would make great knobs:
