Lovely Precision. Original guard?
-
Not associated with the seller but this will set you back about £100ish more than a new Mexican. Looks awesome - perfect colour combo as well in my opinion.

I think this would have sold if it wasn't December. Amazing price!

I'm not associated with the seller but this seems to be a bargain at £[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]575[/font][/color].

I'd have one if given to me
But I've owned two myself and wouldn't bother again. They look awesome though - I wish I could get along with them. -
Go try a few dude and don't worry about what anyone else says or thinks. If you find one you like, go for it!

I have the hum cancelling ones in my 2013 US Standard Jazz Bass and like them a lot myself. There are a lot of pretty good reviews online about them. I'm not all that aware of many negative things people might have said about them.

The Focusrite 2i2 is less than £100 from Thomann, has 2 inputs and comes with Ableton Live 9 basic.
There's very little latency and the mic pre-amps are of excellent quality...

I've got one of these. Plug and play largely.
You could download Audacity free for recording too - it's pretty easy to use in my opinion and there are loads of tutorials on YouTube available. -
I'm sure I'm being super stupid here but I don't understand the '78 serial number and the '83 neck stamp?
'78 necks had block inlays too?
Is this a special edition or something? -
Wow - this is nice!!

I know you said must be brand new but there are always Americant Standard Fender Jazz Basses on here in as new condition available.
-
Please post photos if you do get it. I'm thinking about maybe getting an olympic white American Standard 5 with rosewood fingerboard.
-
Yes, as a few have said I wonder what is happening to the necks. Is it temperature/storage related perhaps?
-
Is it an American Standard or American Deluxe?
In my opinion:
400 for either is a steal (assuming it's not actually damaged/broken, etc.)
600-900 for an American Standard is a fair scale and very competitive price for an American Deluxe.
Depends on a few variables of course - and colour too - sunburst tends to be a little more expensive from what I've seen myself. -
...mmmmm a 60s P-bass... How about a pre-CBS?
-
I agree totally.
You pretty much cut out variances of the basses by buying high-end.
My current 2013 US Standard Jazz Bass is superb but the store I bought it from had 4 of the same model in stock - they just had different fingeboard/finish combinations - the difference in playability was crazy though - unacceptable actually - 3 were very average or rubbish and only 1 was good. -
Yes, I've pretty much arrived at the same conclusion. Been through a lot of basses over the last 20 years and always end up back with passive jazz basses. I don't fight it anymore
-
Wow - what an incredible looking bass!! Just beautiful.
-
I'm really surprised that this hasn't sold for this price. Mind you, I'm totally skint myself at the moment and I'm guessing there are a lot of people in the same boat!
-
Incredible basses. I love mine. Congratulations.
-
...and a Ken Smith Black Tiger VI.
-
I fancy a Fodera.
-
I bought a Aguilar Tone Hammer DI pedal from Lozz. Absolute pleasure to deal with and very quick shipping.
-
Haha another one in and out of the stable. Looks beautiful and GLWTS!
Off topic but that 2013 Jazz I bought back from you is incredible dude. Whenever I go to music shops I like to try their US Standard Jazz Bass stock simply to compare with the one I've got and again, yesterday, I went to Absolute Music in Poole and played three American Standard Jazz Basses and none of them came close to the one I've got! It really is incredible (and quite poor too) how different the same model of Fender can be!
Microphone recommendations

I currently record direct into my Scarlet 2i2 but I want to incorporate my cab too. Any of you folks got some strong recommendations when it comes to choosing a microphone?
