Jazz Bass Copy thread.

Hey everyone,

I just got a ESP 400 Series Jazz bass copy (EMG active pickups). So I thought lets start a Jazz Bass copy thread. Post pics of your bass and setup you use.

Here are some of my various parts jazz basses. Some of the parts are Fender, somes are licensed Fender, and some are just parts.

Here is my Fender killer. Lakland killer for that matter.
1977 Aria Pro II 'Precise Bass'. It's majic.
PS - digging those amps btw

And his older bro-1976 'Professional Bass'

Here is a wall of them.

The two black basses are far removed from their original form, especially the one in back. The white bass started life as a Squier CV, but that now is only 1/3rd of what you see. The blue bass is the only bass that is exactly the way it was made. The VM Jazz has new knobs otherwise stock.

As for an amp, I have a Peavey Max 112 and a Fender Bassman 250/210.

and my starter rack

Korg DT-1 Pro
Yamaha Effect Unit
BBE 462
Ampeg SVT-III (non-pro)
Hartke 410 XL-Series

This literally rocks my room but I like it. I got a great deal on the everything but maybe I will get a smaller amp, I have too much power for my room. I am not sure.

Here's my J-killer and the amp that loves it:

It used to sport a fake decal, but it occurred to me that's kind of unethical. So I put this on instead:

This was the 60th Precise J bass built at the Matsumoku plant in Japan in 1977. Note the very rare A Ashtray. This bass is unbelievable. It has wonderful j tone and the action and workmanship is equal to or better than a Fender of that era. I love my Fenders but I love my Aria too. I am not certain it is the original pickguard as I have never seen a white one on these basses. I may opt for a tortoise shell but will keep the original. I just stole this today for $150. I will post bigger and better pics soon.
