The Official Charvel/Jackson Club!

[Xandrell]

I finally get to join this club!

I posted this over in my "NBD" thread, so I'll refrain from regurgitating it all here, but here's some pics of my new (used) bass -

This one is a 2019 JS2 Concert Bass. Nothing super fancy like the old Charvels I see here, but I've been wanting to get one of these for a long time. I do plan on refinishing this one at some point, giving it a rainbow crackle. But that will wait. Do we do club numbers here?

Real nice. Newer version of my old Concert which I changed to BEAD.
Had to file the nut a little. I have numerous basses but Jackson's get a
lot of compliments.

Here's a fun one. Somewhere 87-89 Fusion IV. Original owner. Wish I was a better photographer! Been hiding in a case for years found it when I was selling my musicman. Totally FS if you are interested HMU. Otherwise enjoy the detour through the late 80's lol.

That's awesome! Did you list it in the classifieds here?

'93 Jackson Professional Concert V bought used from a Seattle pawn shop for $600 in '97
Was my first fiver, and first active bass. Really made slapping a LOT easier!

Use it mostly for my original hard rock band with Dunlop SuperBrite MM steel rounds.
Super like the neck and the tone controls function really well.
Plus it just looks badass! LOVE IT!!

I did not because I have no idea what the value is and didn't want to embarrass myself in front of real musicians! It's on the e b thing I don't want to violate rules by linking here I enjoyed the heck out of reading through this forum and much love. Happy for any feedback that doesn't violate policies certainly wouldn't mind listing it here if I had an idea of what's reasonable!

remove 700 from that price and it might sell
but where it is now it won't.

lol thought for sure I was rich (j/k of course) That is very good to know thank you!

Yeah, there is one listed on Reverb at $571. That gives you a rough market value.

Reverb has a past selling price list for items so you can see what they actually sold for over a period of time. Pretty handy feature.

my reverb shows no fusion-4 only a black fusion -5 for about 425 that someone scnaded down the head paint and threw a USA sticker on it

Everyone thank you sincerely for the advice and information! Much more than I ever expected. Great community.

I'm in. Just got my first Jackson today! 20th anniversary concert RIP Dave Ellefson! Now I can play with a pic and know the bass is made for it!

I love mine! Super-versatile bass, despite the look and endorsement.

I agree. I can get all types of tone from it. The neck feels great and it's fast. Nice B string.

I've owned a Jackson before but never a Charvel. I have one of these coming soon.

Does anyone know if the pickup covers are standard size and removable? I'm considering putting the cream colored ones on. I like how those look on the green and blue models.

I have the Jackson JS2 Spectra bass, and I enjoy it a lot. I love Jackson in general though, I also have a JS22-7 guitar, and used to have a JS30RR in my early days

 

[Seth DuSith]

Forgot to post it. Not everyone's taste for sure, in the decoration department, but I like it. I sticker bomb everything I own

I got a Jackson Spectra X Series in 2021, and I recently concluded a series of small mods which improved on the original electronics and tone: Jackson Spectra: details, electronics, and some fixes/upgrades
