Yes some things have changed over the years on his black bass. The neck was replaced with a white binding, pearl block neck. I believe he changed the pickguard as well.

Yea I noticed the pickguard is pearl now. I actually wondered quite a few years back what my bass would look like with one. I like the perloid guard!!! Then I saw his with it. I was like that looks hard a$$. Just have not gotten aroind to doing the same thing to mine. So I am assuming electronics are the same though
I just figured a lot of Sig model basses are a quite different than the original one, haha. My Gene Simmons Cort axe bass has the mighty mite pickups and bolt on neck while the real one is neck thru and EMG pickups (pickups I will change later on) Good to know though his is true to the original, minus the neck and pickgaurd change of course. I M cool with that 
Thanks, was not.sure if it was top secret or not, lol.
Uh.. I'm not sure it is really possible to be both
A) Canadian
and
B) a member of the Illuminati.
I believe that Canadians are by nature, diametrically opposed to drama and power grabs. My grandmother was French Canadian - a descendent of Acadians by some accounts.
But I've digressed. Please continue on with the matter at hand.

Yep, according to the TB self assertion team & it's affiliates, fake wear & tear, & fake Fender decals are fraud, & therefor automatically make the owner a fake, a fraud, & a POSER.
He must be horribly self conscious, and insecure about himself, he's certainly not a "REAL" musician.
lol What kind of musician fakes wear & tear? Real musicians "earn" their basses battle scars.
This guy hasn't earned those. He's definitely a poser.
he'll NEVER make it as a real musician.

I was just noticing the picture of the new CS. Does it have all the same size knobs? I think his '72 does too doesn't it? Rather than the larger volume, volume and smaller tone tone knob you usually see.

Yes it has all the same size knobs like his 72. The goal of his tech was to have the bass look like the black bass but a different color. I attempted to do the wear as similar as possible.

His fretless CS Jaco bass is similarly blasphemous.
The bass left the shop with the stock D'addario .045-.105 roundwound set.
I don't know what his tech strings his basses with.

If ever there were Canadians who were *not* by nature, diametrically opposed to drama and power grabs, it would be the Quebecois.
:scowl:
+1 Just don't get the whole fake wear thing! But to each he's own!
My '72 has 100% battle wear and gaining more each month!
