Yes it is kinda toasty. It was terrible on your side since nobody has A/C.

I'm one of the few that has it...…………………… This Queen is a delicate flower :woot:
 
I love my JC. The range of tones is great. It can be clean but it can get growly too by adjusting the impedance control. I would concur that they are a bargain.

The neck is chunkier than a thunderbird neck. as stated 1 5/6 at the nut and fairly thick (@theFixer would probably like the neck).


My suggestion is to find one to try for yourself. Some find it neck heavy, but it is fine; just look at how JC plays his to see how to wear it. Lower on the hip is better - kind of like the way you put a Thunderbird. Up high will be problematic and I don't play mine sitting down - the body is too big.

I wonder how the JC pickup and impedance selection would work in a solid body? @Christine @JIO
say in an EB0 or LP Jr style thing with a single pup?

On the Cole Clark (whiling away the wait at the GP, throat infection - not impressed) it seems it is a V joint. I think Christine may have said that at one point.

Not familiar with the JC pu - but just because it's in a hollow-body bass doesn't mean it wouldn't sound good in a solid body bass. The only pu that responds more intimately with a hollow body (compared to solid body) is a piezo.

Unfortunately, everything Christine says gets lost in all the innuendo with which she taunts us.

Not sure if this helps.

How do the Epiphone Jack Casady electronics work?
 
Christine stumped me with a Prisoner reference that took me too long too get, so I felt it only fair to concede the game :thumbsup:
I like the cut o' yer jib!

<edit>

@Christine Congratulations! You've earned your first toaster! The good news... It's already been shipped! The bad news... It's solid rosewood. You'll be responsible for any necessary fees and paperwork:D

Wow, that is a nice 360/361. According to the maps app, it would take me about seventeen hours to get there. I’d love to buy it, but how to get it home? I’d have to rent a truck...still a very cool find. Someone here needs to snag it..
