Wow, stunning lavender goodness, congratulations!

Is that a medium scale neck?

yep!

 

[atlbassist1987]

I'm obsessed with the idea of a six string short scale. How do you like it?

This one is 34 inches with 19mm spacing so not short scale but I do love it.

 

[Ralph Manak]

All I can say is, "Yes."

Oh wow. I think the spacing threw me off. Looks like a lot of fun

Hello all,

I'm considering ordering a Jake L from Adrian. I'm looking to go as light weight as possible and so am willing to pay extra for chambering and lightweight hardware. I was wondering how light I could expect the bass to be. Also, if there are any real world examples of the metallic purple that Maruszczyk uses, I'd love to see them as I can't find much besides one old reverb listing and know the configurator and real world don't always match up.

Thanks!

Beautiful. It looks so much like the one that Adrian is building for me, so great taste

The weight also depends on the model and scale of the instrument. For example if you chose a 34" Jake P 4 string chambered with an all Alder body Roasted Maple neck using all light weight Aluminum Hipshot hardware then you could probably expect a Bass that weighs around 7 - 8 lbs. Adrian no longer uses Swamp Ash as a light weight wood anymore...Regular European Ash is quite heavy. Not sure about the metallic Purple color.

I have a 30" chambered Jake L with an Ash body, Hipshot ultralight tuners with Drop D Extender and a Hipshot vintage steel bridge. I can check tonight to see exactly what it weighs, but my recollection is very close to 8 lbs.

Is that Vista Green?

Great minds! Haha

 

[turdfurgeson23]

Is that Vista Green?

Yup, it's the Vista Green

 

[CoughSyrup]

Yup, it's the Vista Green

I might have to change my mind about the purple and go for Vista Green now. That's gorgeous.

Any thoughts on preamps for a 6 string Joker B with 48HB's? I was initially going to order it passive, but thought about the "what if" scenarios. Adrian confirmed that a tone control can be added to the Noll TCM 3P. I figured I could get a lot of flexibility out it.

What are your thoughts? I'm planning to order in about two weeks.

I weighed it this morning - 7.6 lbs.

I was torn between the Vista Green and Bruno Blue. I was able to find some examples of Vista Green instruments online and that was that.
