I have to agree that the necks on Atelier Z jazz basses are sublime. Here's my one in blue.

How do I tell my wife I just bought another bass?
BlueMoon replied to Rayman's topic in General Discussion
I spent some time convincing my wife that the new packages that would arrive at our door were, in fact, "new cases for some of my old basses that are presently stored in gig-bags". One time she asked me - with a smile on her face - what colour the lining of the new case was!! When I showed her, I was almost as surprised as she was that the supplier had forgotten to take out the instrument that had obviously been used to display the case lining In the store! -
Bought a lovely American Professional Precision V from Joni. Everything with the transaction went very smoothly. The instrument was correctly described and additional questions were answered in depth and very quickly. The packaging was the original Fender packaging - so no issues at all. The courier service (UPS) even delivered the bass earlier than anticipated. Very pleased. Thanks, Joni.......you are a great example of how great transactions can happen on Basschat. Highly recommended!!!

A real shame! Both she and her brother - Keith Chegwin - have left us when still quite young. RIP.

Anyone play a Fender American De Luxe Zone active bass?
BlueMoon replied to TerryVil's topic in Bass Guitars
No personal experience.....but, our friends across the pond on that other bass forum have discussed the topic. https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=fender+zone+bass+site:www.talkbass.com&prmd=ivsxn&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjt46vm2oH1AhUD4aQKHY_dA4AQrQIoBHoECBIQBQ&biw=1024&bih=729&dpr=2 -
Loving them both.....especially that checker binding!!! Enjoy.

That's naughty practice, indeed.

Really annoying is when one string is dead. However, some brands "design-in" a duller sounding low E string as part of the mystique. Intentionally thuddy from the outset. I seem to recall Pyramid flats having this.

I just concluded a purchase of a bass from Augusto (@italiancross). His communications were superb and he is clearly a caring, sincere person. Buy/sell with confidence if Augusto is part of the deal. Grazie molto, Augusto!!

Haven't seen it yet, but it has picqued my interest. I do have in my collection the Let It Be album with the glossy booklet that came out as a special edition at launch time. Quite collectable now, I'd guess. I got it from a pokey little record shop as a "might as well purchase".

Agreed. They certainly look nice. I've not come across the brand before.

I'm much the same. If I would try to analyse any preference it probably has a lot to do with "my first bass" experience and fond memories. Much the same as hankering for the sweets and chocholate that one had as a kid........kinda sticks in the subconcious (or on the sofa in the case of the chocholate).

NBD - Aerodyne Jazz Bass (I’m a terrible liar)

I keep seeing double. Should I get my eyes checked? -
NBD - Aerodyne Jazz Bass (I’m a terrible liar)
BlueMoon replied to AndyTravis's topic in Bass Guitars
Not much more to add to the comments above. Hum from the bridge pup was the reason I swapped out the pup's to Dimarzio pj's. I have creme ones, which also look cool with DR Black Beauties. Otherwise, a nice light and resonant (basswood) body and super fast neck. The body dings up pretty fast and the black ones are fingerprint magnets! -

Gorgeous in all lighting situations, I'd say. Great acquisition!! Well done.

Great ending!! Gorgeous
