that's an absolute peach - great looking bass

That is simply beautiful. Gibsons + P90s = tone heaven.

These are brilliant basses especially for the money - just bought one as a backup to my MIA P bass and having gigged it last weekend for first time I can't say enough good about them. Lovely necks, good weight, great looks.

Have a bump!

Just bought a four-string one of these (well the older model anyway) and they are astounding basses for the money - so have a bump!

Bump - i really could do with shifting this so open to any sensible offers!

Hooray for Modern Player Jazzes then!

Can't wait to gig it. Currently parked on my settee where i can just look at it.....

Cheers Daytona Rik - I've succumbed to getting another Fender so I really have to move this one on finally to pay for it.

Bump for a new price £180 ono

Hi just to echo some of the views here - I bought an older version of the Modern Player Jazz this weekend (the one with gloss finish and Classic Vibes-esque brass bridge saddles) and it seems to be really good.

Build quality, fit and finish seems very decent. The neck is very comfortable, with proper medium jumbo frets and modern radius (unlike the Classic Vibes, which put me off them to be honest).

It's a bit weighty, but the sound is good and really really loud compared with my 1995 USA P Bass, which itself is really loud anyway. Still tweaking the pickup height to get it at a point where im hearing some wood instead of just hearing the pickups.

It's obviously not as good as the USA, but for the price it seems like a really really good back up, which is very playable and with a good range of sounds, and I love the look of a vintage-styled jazz pimped with big pickups!

Due to gig it for first time next week as a spare to my regular USA Fender, but first impressions are very good indeed.

Incredible collection - GLWTS!

That's beautiful - have a bump

Cheers for the update on the sounds Andy - much appreciated!

Hi Andy - I can't figure out what these sound like exactly - can you shed some light?

The two main demos on Youtube both seem to have quite an overdriven sound - is that how the bass sounds when you dig in then? Or is the guy using some distortion.

Love the look - just can't figure out how they sound! I play a regular P bass now so kinda thought it would be roughly the same ballpark.

Hi Pestie - PM incoming….

PM sent

Don't suppose you're up the Midlands way ever are you?

happy ending all round then

Hiya - you have a PM

I'm likely buying a new bass before the week is out - in which case i'll be needing to shift this one to recoup some of the expense!

so come on and make me a sensible offer

in short - bump

on hold

Hi mate - have emailed you
