nice gear.

and even nicer screen name :D you wouldn't happen to play swg, would you?

I used to, a long time ago. Was one of the few Bothans on the Flurry server. I played from Launch until uhh........like 2 weeks before the CU. Then I just jumped in randomly every now and then after that. I loved the original SWG. For all its flaws, it was still my favorite MMO.

i server transferred from lowca to flurry recently, with my guild. good server, decent population.

heh.
 
IS that Jaco truly as amazing as Geddy makes it out to be? I know I would kill for one!

SlApin, post your other basses. Its been a while since I have seen a good Smith.

I love the Jaco RELIC, hence why I had to hunt down another after I realised how stupid I was to sell the first one...

The neck is simply amazing to play on... The way its sanded down or what ever they do and its shaped a little different from a regular jazz neck.. flatter back..

There are definately differences in the Jaco Relic... This one, the relic job is not as nice as the first one I had IMHO, but sitll plays great!

...

As far as the smiths... i no longer have the one on the right...

i've had this bass for 25 years. it's a '79 p i bought used in austin. the rosewood neck needs a fret job and the board is gouged out, so i put on this usacg maple/maple neck. i've never had a maple neck before (my '72 p also is also rosewood) and i wanted to give it a try. i also installed duncan quarter pounders and the abalone scratch plate. this baby thumps! i have put away my '72 (i'd be heartbroken if it got swiped) and now this is my #1.
