Lookie lookie :smug:


 
I'm a HUGE fan of FGN. I have 5 total, the fifth being my mighty power that comes Wednesday. I have a Mighy J Dark Evolution, a Neo Classic J (Geddyzilla), an Expert J, an Illiad Dark Evolution (guitar), and the Mighty Power that comes Wednesday. I'd hardly call their QC the "worst ever", on the contrary I've found their necks to be some of the best I've ever played (and I own over 40 basses). I've found their QC to be amazing and their attention to detail top notch. Nobody's perfect, and it sounds like Harvey got one that didn't meet his expectations... but I don't think that warrants such a blanket statement about their QC considering that he's only had two (and only one with issues it looks like). I don't think I'm ever buying a Fender ever again (not that I did in the first place... but you get what I'm saying). With the MIM prices going over $1000 for some models, FGN is far superior in every way IMO.
 
Hi LowEndLobster, can you tell me if the necks of your different FGN are similar in term of feel, width, thickness? On the FGN website all the different models seem to be referred to have U-shape profile.

Heyo! Sorry for the late reply! They're similar-ish, but the Mighty Jazz basses are a smidge thinner than the Mighty Power. MP has 41mm nut, MJ has 38mm I believe.
