Some might say a Spitfire is not really a Jazz bass ^_^

I was quoting Chris B, where the original quote came from... ...but it looks like ive written the post, thats why i put ??? ..And i know what im talking about when it comes to Jazz basses!! Sorry to hijack this thread SS..

Mark King never used a Fender??? he's got a Fender Sig Jazz...

Sounds like he has GAS for one though....My advice is dont think that it has to be a USA Jazz...CIJ/MIJ Jazzez can be just as good..And you will save lots of money

Well im a little bias..but for slap a Jazz is awsome...But of course so are alot of other basses..Its all in your preference...I also think the Stingray is a slap machine...Dare i say it better than a Jazz?? Slap sounds great on many basses, its up to you find the slap tone you like... Of course you wont go wrong with a good Jazz bass..Ive had a good slap tone out of a P Bass too mind!!

Very nice Johnny..Congratulations bro!!!! Bet it sounds awsome.. And welcome to BC..

[quote name='jwbassman' post='505920' date='Jun 4 2009, 10:49 PM']Ok - so I've been asked to bass for Boogie Nights [Disco Inferno, Boogie Wonderland, Shaft etc]... Great as my Overwater fretless is I just don't think it's the right choice for this gig - the question is, what is? What do you thing I should be using, your thoughts appreciated...[/quote] Erm...my 75 Jazz RI......Sorry for the plug....

Used Lakland 44-01..Very good bass...You will be hard pressed to find a better bass than this for the money..IMHO

[quote name='warwickhunt' post='505962' date='Jun 4 2009, 11:34 PM']TBH there are Corvettes and there are Corvettes; you could essentially be asking 'what tone can I expect from a Fender [insert any manufacturer with a large range]' because the Corvette that I own is very different from say the one that 'Waldo' has for sale from the one that 'clauster' has, as much as say a P bass 'v' a Jazz 'v' Squier 'v' a CS. In the Corvette range there are passives, actives, Jazz pups, MM, MM +Jazz, $$, (to name but a few) BO, NT, cheapies, expensives... do you see where I'm coming from? Best advice... Go out and try one because they are all different (inc. neck dimensions). [/quote]Thanks WH, i have my eye on Waldo's Corvette..Wonder if he likes Jazz basses?

A Corvette was the bass i used to drool over when i first started playing..So im thinking about maybe purchasing one.. My Q is, what tone can i expect compared to say a Jazz or a Stingray5.....I have never played a Warwick before....Which is the best Corvette model, i always liked the FNA Jazzman...Are they weighty? Do all Warwicks sound similar, What can i pick up a Double Buck or FNA for these days? Thanks for any comments...
