It's just too pretty to keep to myself!

Truly a work of art... I spend an awful lot of time just admiring the workmanship of this bass before and after playing it. It has a very articulate tone, with perfect distinction between notes (when playing chords)... I'm going to be perfectly honest- the transducer pickup is not the best sounding arrangement for this bass plugged in (which is why most of the ones made after the first few have a floating pickup at the neck). I think Bobby Vega's has a custom made EMG at the neck. They did a lot of pickup R&D, presumably after this one already left the shop. Unplugged, I just love this thing!

Got in mind a third that I'd like to make myself. But for now ....

This is the whole gang. It's a small gang, but it's a perfectly formed gang.

I would love a beat up old P-bass too, similar to the Pino Paladino signature model, but that purchase is a long way off.

I'm tempted to give the musicman a bit of a custom-shop treatment, as I really like the 'used and abused' look. But I'm afraid I wouldn't like the end result so I'm holding back on it.

Maybe just wait till I find a beat up P-bass and keep the MM in good condition.

Try a 62 reissue in fiesta red if you can find one. I lust also for a Pino but the price is like wooh. I got lucky and found one and although it's not an exact, it's pretty damn close. The only difference IMO is the neck is not sanded down and ofcourse the relicing.

Man I gotta tell you that your set up helped me to REFOCUS. When I look at your pic, I says "GROOVEE BABY, YEAH" (In an Austin Powers voice). Thanks for that.

Here's a recent shot of the stable:

Left to right: MIM Jazz, Nate Mendel Precision, Geddy Lee Jazz.

Now that I have a Precision in the stable again, I think my GAS is cured for the time being.

This is my new Fender Classic Series 60' Jazz Bass Lacquer. It's so much fun to play, very solid, way better electronics than my Squier and FSR Jazz. Can't wait to use it for our June 7th Car Show in the park gig! My wife says I need to smile more on stage, I think this bass solves that problem
