Used them for about 40 years,started at .105 on then E and ended up with the .95s in later years.Lasted a real long time ,they feel a little gritty initially but that does not last long. Changed to TI flats on one bass a couple of years ago,and gradually ended up with them on all my basses
Had 2 original jazz stackers that did not talk to me sound wise,they had more caps in than a vvt.The reissues don’t have the extra caps in,also a 65 car jazz it had an 02 cap in and sounded thin to me with the tone in the off position.Fender put the .02 cap in for a little while then went back to .05,maybe someone bought the wrong ones 🙈
I bought a tort one for a Fender custom shop relic,think they had other colours,it had a nitro top and fitted perfectly,all the measurements were shown,they had them on EBay and Ali Express,was about 5 pounds
Yes, and I use them most weeks doing a gig,turn 70 this week so I really should make an effort to sell the white one.Everytime I use the red one someone comes up and asks me about it that has never happened before with any bass and I have been playing over 50 years.People lined up for the red one but it’s not going😃
