Thanks man. I have gone from loving the color to hating it back to loving it. I came close to refinishing it, but I decided it wasn't worth spending $350 to refinish a bass I bought for $300 new. I'm so glad I kept the original finish now. You definitely don't see many purple jazzes!Supergroup said:I would have said that a purple bass would be ugly before now... nice.
Nice bass, but not #27.SamTheButcher said:![]()
2002 MIM jazz in Midnight wine, put on a Warmoth neck that I finished in nitro earlier this year, fender custom shop '60's pickups, and a pearloid pickguard.
methinks this make me MIM club member #27.

At least it's just cosmetic. It looks like they beveled the area that meets the control plate when they should have left it square.tplyons said:Penguin, the misaligned control cover and pickguard joint is common. Sucks, but it's on all my MIM's.
They just missed with the drill, I was surprised that wasn't done by template or CNC. It was an easy fix at least.No excuse for the misaligned tuner though... is the ferrule in there or is it just really poorly done?
