Fender Custom Shop Club

This 'cured' my G.A.S. as far as Jazz basses go : it has a growl that would show a lion who's the boss ; organic warmth and smoothness in the bridge pickup ; a fast neck so stable it can withstand Canadian weather and its seasonal whims and a stack pot setup that make it easy to find 'the' tone I'm looking for. Looks alone sold it to me ... I'm glad beauty was more than skin deep with this 2017 Fender Jazz CS '60 Blue sparkle w matching headstock. It was money well spent and it's my go to bass for my current Big Band needs (we cover all styles of music).
