Congrats. It goes with any onstage wardrobe selection you make.

Ok, so the title will make sense in a bit. Anyhow… have you ever wanted to own a Pre-CBS 1960 Jazz Bass, but just could never in a million years afford it? Yeah, me too. So I assembled my own take on one! It turned out pretty great, imo. I had a lot of fun putting this one together. Here’s what we’ve got:

-MJT Relic’d Jazz Bass Body, Firemist Gold over 3TS
-Fender American Original 60’s Jazz Neck with Clay Dots
-Fender 60’s Reverse Tuners
-Fender Pure Vintage ‘64 Alnico V Pickups
-Fender Flea Roadworn Dual Concentric Knob control panel
-1962 Authentic Fender celluloid Pickguard
-Fender Roadworn Bridge, Covers, and hardware.
-Currently strung with DR Black Beauties (I usually only keep flats on my fretless. I know someone will say something).

I even managed to get my hands on one of those ridiculous Parker body guards. They’re getting harder to come by still in good shape, so I had to grab it when I saw it. Absolutely useless though lol. Just a cool piece to have around. Anyhow, here it is:

Now if you just get a fresh paint job on there, you just might have something

Don't wear big, buckled, studded belts, and the finish isn't in any real jeopardy.

But we are talking about a reliced bass. Wouldn't that be the best way to get an authentic reliced instrument. I should get such a belt.

I knew the man, Glenn Parker, that invented and made the Fender Body Guards by Parker.
