Actually, a lot of songs i play a very lead on bass and they realy like what i play, they just prey me what to choose. I think the jazz bass is more universal and i will use it, but that doesn't mean that my gwb1005 is down and i will never touch it. No way, i really like it and there will be a lot chances for it in my future. Thanks for Your advices.

I think it's the right answer.

I absolutely understand my rights, but these basses sound so different and they like bouth, but it just happened that they want to hear the one tone all the time and changing them in gig - scares them of hearing different things at the next song.

What do You mean with "i need some". Do You need the specifications - Both are fretless. Fender is 4 string alder body, maple neck, pao ferro fingerboard, 2 vintage single coil pickups, passive. Ibanez is hand made by Sugi guitars Japan, swamp ash body, 3 piece maple nech, ebonol fingerboard, bartolini bridge GWB soapbar pickup, active electronics treble/bass, 5 string.

Really, no advices here, i need some!!!

Gig

Hi, what would You choose if You had to play in the band that plays pop, rock, funk, disco, blues and latin. Fender Jaco artist jazz bass or Ibanez GWB1005 ? To me - i like the sound even, bouth have their great tone, but the band wants me to mainly play on one bass all the time. Help me.

I think that on bolt ons the body wood gives a little effect on tone, but neckthroughs a much bigger. On frettless - the nech and fingerboard wood gives a very big effect.

It means that Jaco Pastorius is still alive.

I absolutely agree.

Cool!!!!

I really like these road worn scrashes, if they are reall, they tell the story.

I have played 22, but only on roundwounds, kind of scare to try flats How did You liked those flats after 30 roundwound years ?

I have a different story. 22 years i started to play bass with my first Musima white 4 string fretted precission. After 1 year i started to listen a lot of Jaco and all turned upside down. I realised that fretless is an absolutelly different instrument than fretted bass. I bought a Fender MIM jazz bass and defretted it. My sound vision turned upside down and i quickly saw these exelent things what could i do with fretless. I bought Fender Jaco artist. Then i heard Gary Willis playing on his GWB1005 and got my sound perfectly. That's it. I momentaly bought it and will say that for me it is the best fretless bass currently on earth. So it's about 20 years i have played only fretless basses.

I currently already own the 2nd version after natural, what i would like, but if i wouldn't own it, i would look like it that way.

If You suddenly had a need for a wah-wah fx, what would You choose Dunlop crybaby or one of autowah pedals ? I took Crybaby.

Sorry, hate metal.

My main problems when i quit or can't join the band is always my job hours and bad band drummer.

Interesting, which color of body You would choose, if someone would say that will give You, let's say, standart 4 string Fender jazz bass, body made of ash. Iwould choose natural flat.

Nice! I don't like the precition type, but the finish and that road worn style looks great !

I like lighter strings couse i play with a lighter touch, it let's me play more comfortable. My favourites are D'addario EXL165-5. But obviosly we all think and play differt, do the hard maybe comfortable for different technique players. I think this is non stoppable discussion.

Blackbird - Jaco version for bass.
