  1. I've got these pedals and here is the current order:[list]
    [*]Markbass Compressore
    [*]SansAmp Bass Driver DI
    [*]EHX HumDebugger
    [*]Boss DD-6
    [*]Boss DD-6
    [*]Boss DD-6
    [*]Boss DD-7
    [*]Boss DD-7
    [*]Boss DD-7
    [*]Boss TU-2 (I understand that this should be the very first pedal but it doubles as a kill switch in case the delays get out of control)
    [*]Radial JDI Passive DI
    [*]Aguilar Tone Hammer
    [/list]
    I'm after some opinions and experience of ordering your pedals.
    I need the delay pedals and use all of them but I also think that I've gotten carried away with the DI boxes?

  2. I think I'm going to have to get a 5 string version one of these in the new year. I'd like a sunburst, rosewood with tortoise shell pickguard but unfortunately the sunburst model only comes with a black pickguard and it looks as though you can't actually buy spare pickguards for these basses from Fender?

    Here's my latest Jazz, another '61;

    Can you actually beat a pre-CBS Jazz Bass in sunburst? Not for me you can't :)

    What winds me up is a BMW M3 logo on a badly done up 318, and im not even a car nut!!

  5. I will definitely hold onto it now... I started regretting my decision about 3 weeks after selling it so went down to Absolute Music in Poole where they had 3 US Standard Fender Jazz Basses in stock and played each of them. None of them felt anywhere near as nice as the one I’d sold. I genuinely couldn’t believe the differences between the basses could be so vast considering all three were the same US Standard models. Thankfully, Nick got in contact, was an absolute gent and kindly offered me first refusal :)

    [size=3]I recently played a couple of Limelights and have owned a number of pretty nice Bravewoods in the past and, personally speaking, none of them have gotten near to the look or feel of my '64 Fender Jazz Bass. I don’t think it’s something that can actually be picked up in photographs either. I can’t really put my finger on what it is but when I see a Limelight/Bravewood in a photo, I think that they look pretty great, but when I’ve actually got one in my hand and look at my genuine ’64 Jazz sat next to it, the Limelight/Bravewood looks and feels reliced in my opinion...

    [size=3]I was actually thinking of asking Mark at Limelight to build me an Olympic white/matching headstock '64 Jazz with zero relicing. As close to what a real Jazz would have been delivered to someone brand new from the factory back in '64 but then I decided to buy a 6-string instead :)[/size]
