Thanks...had to tort it immediately during setupNice, really diggin on the black/tort/maple combo
.
Please, details. That one's very high on my gas list
Man, it's super nice. I've got some nice Jazz Basses with my AVRI 64 and purple sparkle Clayton as top 2 and this makes it a top 3 situation (or quandary). It set up super low and smooth and I actually like the oil finish on the back of the neck. It's silky, and I'm usually a gloss guy. Case is nice too. Sounds like it should, like an angry duck, right amount of Jazz quack and some snarl. I give it an 11 out of 10.
Ha ha...no not like that. To me P basses go "boom" and J basses go "quack", just my ears and description. They might make different noise to you. But not Donald Duck on this one. More like John Lydon going quack.Now All I can think of is Donald Duck with a super deep voice..
Is it an AVRI?
If it sounds like John Lydon I'd contact Carey Nordstrand...

Oh no, I'm good
I just mean it has a little snarl/snotty to it. Makes a Geddy noise, all good.
I've always liked the tone of the Fender Jazz. Grew up hearing itOh no, I'm good
on the majority of commercial studio recordings for decades not
withstanding James Jamerson contributions. You can always tell
if a hit was recorded with a Jazz. That little bit of scoop and 1K
gave it just enough attack to sit well in a mix and give that
"oh yeah" feel. For me, the Precision works best in a live situation.
Preference toward Rosewood or Maple tone. Used to have a '77 Jazz
Pearloid I foolishly sold off in college. It's currently on the radar.
That with the Tort/ black combo is just delicious. Token Tort meme.
Edit. Happy Birthday John. Miss you.

I bet the cat has a better sound.
by comparison , cat weighs 19 lbs.
I bet the cat thinks so too... mine is constantly letting me know it is superior...I bet the cat has a better sound.
This should be moved to the ‘official show your cats’ thread
Garrus is his name and he makes tiny tiny goofball sounds only Maines make .
oh yeah , it's a '96 Made by ESP , they worship SD at ESP and did a whole run for a few years of Strats & J's a couple P's and maybe some Teles too not sure . It's the best J I have ever played . Really fantastic instrument .
I added the stack and KTS bridge \m/
They do , it's very unusual , like tiny bubbly chirpy sentences , hard to describe but super fun to talk to . They have many unusual features other cats don't have . Mostly goofball .
my itty bitty kitty makes some odd chirpy sounds too, maybe she's got a lil coon in her...
lol ours is a rescue with all kinds of odd striping so I wouldn't be surprised...You know how cats are so probably
