And the million dollar question to all CS owners: do you have your pickup covers on or not?

I do for both my CS Jazz basses. My LPB I bought used with all case candy included. Seafoam/Fiesta I ordered so I have every document with the bass from order form to receipt.

Nice! I have them off at the moment, but damn, that look with them on!

AHHH! It's early over here I read the question wrong. Thought you asked if we still had the covers. Sorry.

I don't play with them on. I use the PUPS as my thumb rest.

Hehe, that's ok!

P.S.: Somebody get jealous of your avatar pics...

Bridge covers on; I also anchor on the PBass pup and Jazz neck pup.

@slick_tu, can you post a picture of your whole CS array?

 

[Rickles]

Sure, give me a few days.

Here'e my newest addition. CS Proto Precision Bass

 

[Rickles]

Interesting pickup; it looks like it's split to make it a humbucker like the regular PBass.

Here's mine...

Here they are. None were custom ordered; all are Time Machine Series (l to r: '59, '60, '64, '64) bought online from three different dealers. Thus, I didn't get to test-play them, but I wasn't disappointed in any of them. I bought all around 2008-2010, or about then, when prices were really low. As you can see, I've removed the bridge covers on the two Jazz Basses. I guess they looked a little too big by themselves (w/o the pup covers). The 2TSB '59 isn't quite so reddish, the LPB Jazz is a bit darker than it looks in the picture and came with a Tort 'guard; Pickguardian made the Mint one. All have TI Jazz Flats. No other changes

This is a little more true-color.

Here's a Blizzard 2016 shot of my CS 64 Jazz. Keep warm out there.

What a lovely family! Suddenly, my CS '64 J feels lonely... I believe it needs a P... A CS '60 P...

 

[SJLee]

Thanks guys!
