    I have a newly found respect for Flea

    Flea just has 'IT' the feel and the groove, you can't learn or fake it, sure people can stick a bunch of bebop licks together but if you aint got that 1% of magic it means nothing. hes up there with Mingus, Jaco, Miles, Bird, Hendrix, muddy waters, eric clapton.....

    Favorite Hand Made Jazz Basses

    yea, i really like the look of the AC s as they look more like the 60s fenders. im really into the Jaco thang, i love jazz, but i also love R&B and soul, funk etc. i think the 60s give a little of the darker sound thats imo nicer to solo in as well.

    sadowsky VS fender

    yep i agree and anyhow, where did this 'jazz bass on steroids' quote originate? Jaco got his tone from a fender jazz bass, he made his fender sound on steroids through his fingers, he didnt need a boosting preamp. He played a Fender Jazz bass and he sounded awesome on it, as did 10s of thousands...
