New Bass! Nash Jazz Bass (Pictures)

[Mark Wilson]

Here we go!

I'm the worst photographer in the world, just so you guys know.

 

[ExaltBass]

Sweeeet! I LIKE it!

 

[5StringBlues]

Sweetness.Congrats.No fail for you.

 

[king_biscuit]

I think I'd like to see that with a tort guard!

 

[isisiscool]

Not gonna lie I am digging the blue.

 

[cripula]

I'd like to see it with a tugbar

Great looking bass, in one of my all time favourite colours. Nash makes great stuff... I still see a fretless Sonic Blue stack knob in my future.

Didn't they have any that weren't all banged up

Love the color, but I do thing a pearl PG would look mighty tasty.

talk about it's history

 

[Mark Wilson]

Thanks guys. The bass KILLS all around. Smooth neck, KILLER tone, feels great all around. Probably the best playing/sounding bass i've ever played.

talk about it's history

I'm not sure if you're serious, or being a troll.
Let's hope it's not the latter, k?

 

[FL Knifemaker]

Very nice. I'm trying to work out a trade deal for a Nash P.

Do it.
You won't regret it.

ONLY criticism about this bass?

Reverse Tuners, which I forgot about.

Stupid 1960s!

 

[Jefenator]

Congrats and welcome to J-bass nirvana.

You'll get used to the tuners real quick. (And they are the good stuff: beefier than the reverse tuners on my MIJ reissue.)

i'm not being a troll . i know nothing of nash basses except the fender connection, correct? thought maybe this was bought used and has had a neat history. unless it was bought new and was relic'd. either way i dig the instrument lots. the neck looks super fine. you thinnking of swapping the pickguard?

 

[OrionManMatt]

Worst photographer? I dunno. Looks like you shot what you were aiming at.


And I agree with king biscuit: after seeing El Mon's LPB PJ5 with a tort guard, I think I might be fancying that combination a bit more.

Delish score, bro. '70s spacing? Like, a "late '60s" thing?

Oh, okay! Just making sure. As a mod, i delete more posts on relic bashers than anything else.

But, anyway. The deal with Nash is he relics fender-esque parts. I dunno where he gets them.

This guy has NAILED the 60s jazz bass tone. I don't know how he does it. But this bass is a 9.999/10. Given the reverse tuners which I'm not used to yet..

Quick question.

Is there are logo on the headstock i can't quiet tell?

 

[hypercarrots]

you can't be the worst photographer because your pictures are actually in focus!

 

[Mark Wilson]

Quick question.

Nope. It's blank.
I'm kinda tempted to put a Fender decal on. But...

1) Bill Nash wrote Nash on the headstock on the back.

2) I'm lazy.
