So I'm one of those crazy persons who doesn't like the smaller jazz necks. Precision necks all the way! So no wonder I had 3 p basses and only one (custom made) jazz bass. I felt I only needed two P basses (rounds and flats), but I started to miss a jazz bass with flats. So I went on the interwebs, ordered a loaded jazz bass body.. waited a couple weeks to ship from the US to the Netherlands.. and within a half hour of the arrival of the body, a new bass was born. Behold.. Susie!
It's a roadwon jazz body. I always loved the somewhat pink color with the tort pickguard. I'm not too set on the worn finish but this color combo just kept me up all night. We named her Susie after a acronym of some very uncommon Dutch slang I use (playfully) for my wife to remind her that she is.. well not really an uptown girl.
The bass is strung with TI flats and I'm really loving it so far. The only "issue" I can see is that the bridge saddle of the G string is not pressed up against the saddle of the D string. The strings are however perfectly aligned and it fits tight and secured.
Now what to do with a leftover P/J body..
