i wonder how they sound with pre-amp on... the marlowedk signature sounded good too..
and the carvin sb5000!

 

[natas]

This is a 2001 Spector NS-2J; bolt-on, EMG j pickups and gloss finish.
I ordered this bass with an ash body and a maple board, so it's custom; it was later upgraded with a 3 band Glockenklang preamp and a brass hipshot bridge inststead of the aluminun one in this video; and now it Sounds MUCH better.
I hope you like the bass solo which is towards the end of the video
Cheers

My suggestion was going to be the Spector also.

There is a NICE Spector NS2J 4 string for sale at Jive sound in Alexandria VA; this one has Walnut body, very pretty and great sounding.

nice bass and nice solo.any jj bass that sounds close to a trbjp2?

hi
I just found another bass solo of me playing with a Spector JJ bass; this bass looks like it has soapbars, but under those EMG Boxes, there are 2 EMG 35J active pickups. The bass came originally with 2 EMG 35 DC pickups, but I swaped them for 2 EMG 35J ; so eventhough it does not look like JJ pickups, in reality it is a double J configuration. Here the bass is isolated more, so you will be able to hear it better, eventhough the amp I used that day is not the best, the sound came through ok. I hope you like it; I would say Spector abd Sadowskys with EMG JJ should give you the tone you want. This bass is Neckthrough, the one on the previous video was a Bolt-On. Bass solo starts one minute and fifty seconds into the song and is quite long.
Cheers

The same bass is currently for sale in the classifieds, with upgraded Aguilar pickups, for considerably less money

All of my warwicks except the FNA were JJ. They all sounded pretty modern to me. I've gotten away from modern tones though lately and have been going for more of an old school vibe.

I forgot the name of it, but Yamaha has a nice high end model with J/J pickups that has gotten great reviews. I hope somebody will name it.
