    I built this one for myself. There's a Nordstrand single-coil jazz pickup under the cover, I swear!

    Somebody needs to post that natural MTD Z-series with the Nordies that was here on the classifieds awhile back...
     
  7. You can't see them, but this bass got a set of NJ4SV's. No, it's not a Fender.

    Thou the pic shows it with a dimarzio J in the neck. It has been replaced with a NJ4 in the neck and also has an MM4.3 in the bridge. The preamp is a J-Retro.

    Brett & Jim, those are some sexy basses. What kind of bass is that, Brett?
