    [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]As you are aware MM neck[/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]s haven't been gloss for many years. However, after falling in love [/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]with[/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] the gloss finish on the Fender P I had at the time I looked into getting this refinished.

So, off to Mr Shuker it went for a tinted gloss lacquer finish. This included a complete re-fret and new nut. [/font][/color]
    [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The results are stunning and that black and 'enhanced' maple combination is pretty much hard to beat.[/font][/color]

    Oh man, I've been considering something very similar since I saw Flea playing that. Very envious. You gigging anywhere near me any time soon? :-)

    Hey man, rehearsal last night and it was epic! Gig today so will let you know how it sounds through the GK head and Barefaced cab 😁. Gigging near Leeds next Sat mate, no problem with anyone wanting a shot anytime. It's an amazing bass.

    Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes!

    This is what fender should be building instead of the one he hasn't used for a decade as his signature!

    Ace :)

    That was my exact thought, I did buy the pink one too but this would be the one I would've put up as his signature model.

    This is my new baby, picked it up today and Oh my what a machine and what a dude Jon Is! I originally asked Jon to build me a neck for a potential build I had in mind which after a few emails between us turned into a full build, and it was the right decision. Its a beauty!

    Based-ish on the new Fender Flea is playing ( in a RHCP tribute see ) I asked Jon to build me something cool with some parts I had accumulated. Badass Bridge, '79 Stingray pup, Aguilar OBP-1 preamp and between my incessant emails and Jon's vision and patience we/he came up with this. Plays like a dream and sounds absolutely huge, lots of growl and clarity in spades. Maple board, painted alder body and based on a jazz-ish with a few tweaks here and there.

    I used to get cramp in my left hand especially long gigs. I read somewhere it's possibly dehydration and low potassium so since then a banana on way to gig and drink loads of water and no problem since. Might be a load of rubbish but works for me.
