Joe dart .. Ernie ball jazz !

[andare]

It's here! #24! Unboxing coming tomorrow. First impressions..... very nice

Looking forward to the videos. Too bad there are no videos of the Joe Dart Mini. That was quite interesting being tuned to C. The only video I've seen was Josh Turner using it in a song but no review.

Unboxing tomorrow?

Looks like that sucker's already unboxed !

It came without a box and had to be picked up on the street outside the local pawn shop for authentic experience (tm)

@LowEndLobster The grain on that body is incredible. If mine looks anything like yours, I will be an extremely happy camper!

It sounds like a very nice passive Jazz Bass with the tone knob stuck at 100%. I know the build quality and playability is top notch. It looks like the pickups are in the Sixties position.

Yeah, great Jazz tone and, as Dr. Cheese said, you know the build quality will be A1.

The real question @LowEndLobster - think you'll end up keeping it?

 

[Dr. Cheese]

Somebody needs to make a stack knob set up for this bass.

I was hoping that the non limited editions would be a bit lower priced…but they’re the same

Unless America goes through a period of signicant deflation, I don’t think there will ever be sub $2K Music Man basses again.

Since tone controls on the JD are verboten, what would you do with the empty hole?

There would be no empty hole.

Next year will have blingier knobs and a price increase to $4250.

only musicman I support someone modding, purely out of spite. Wanna make one knob, I’m putting in 4

 

[SJan3]

So its a Jazz bass?

..without a tone control. That's a deal breaker for me. I'm sure this bass is way North of $2000 and NO TONE CONTROL??
Come on...

$2700

Come on...

More is less...

The Mini doesn't even have a volume knob or an on/off switch. They're obviously going for the most minimal setup they can get away with. And they're flying off the shelves.

 

[Snert]

And they're flying off the shelves.

The 100 limited edition ones did. Is there any evidence the standard production versions are?
