1) Red Rickenbacker copy - pretty good for my first bass
2) Peavey Foundation - played and sounded great, I wish I'd kept it.
3) Rickenbacker 4003S JG - overrated.
4) Squier Affinity Jazz - not bad for the price. Noisy as hell though.
5) Fender Geddy Lee Signature MIM - has sharp fret ends, other than that it's fine.
6) Fender Player Series Jazz fretless - Had 2 of these, sent the first back because the finger board basically split. The second one's neck ski jumped. They sounded nice, I wish they'd worked out.
7) Ibanez SR370EF fretless - cheap. Sucks monkey butt. You get what you pay for.
8) G&L Fullerton Deluxe JB - Excellent jazz bass.
9) G&L Build to Order L-2000 - basically an L2K with a jazz bass neck. My main bass now, incredibly versatile. I love this thing.
 
In 13 years, 15.
