With the smokin' hot 80's jazz neck. :bassist:
Thanks, I wish...it's actually an odd ball neck. Bullet rod but no binding or blocks, big 70s tuners. I don't think it was an official thing back when. I got the neck as a different bass from Dave (long story) but after a bunch of searching I figured out it is likely from one of the Antigua reissue Jazzes. Only place I can find that spec. Has the FSR label on the back so that jibes. It's a bitsa bass I made in the lab. Really great neck though.
 
Here is a parts bass I’ve been getting together. A gently used Squier body and a new MIM Fretless Jazz neck in Pau Ferro. The pickups and other electronics are Squier and the tuning machines are Fender Highway One. So far it plays and sounds pretty good.

Seems that I have it's twin! I put the original neck from this one on a Squire VM Precision, then I put the MIM Fender fretless neck on this one. It's a sweet bass.

Gotcha! I was going by what looked like an 80’s logo. Sweet bass none the less. :thumbsup:
