After what seemed like a forever-long search, O have finally gotten a 55-64. Is the pickup an actual Nordstrand, or is it proprietary?

Could be either..... For a while the nordys were offered...

Hanson also makes a dual pole version which looks the same.

The only way to know for sure is to take it out...

Hmmm that is not that far from me. I really don't need another 4 string jazz bass though.

No time, no money, no need. Plus I've got good US fender jazz that I've barely touched since getting my HB30. But I may wander over there anyway.

Wander over to Cincinnati from Virginia?

I would have already bought this if it was closer to what I'd really want...as it is I am fighting the urge to buy it simply on the principal that it is a smoking deal.

D'oh! I misread the web page. Well it is all for the best then.

They are letting Laklands go cheap! All their used Fenders are overpriced.

If I didn't live in Germany, I'd be soooo getting that bass

It's definitely a US neck: quartersawn, BEM fret inlays...we'll see what they say. I did have an issue where one of the magnets on one of the DS's was loose in the cavity, but I've fixed that. It's a tremendous sound.

I dont doubt neck is US made, but I dont think it is quartersawn, based on the grain pattern.

I used to think that too, but I've since seen quartersawn necks with that kind of grain pattern. It's rare, but it happens.
