    [quote name='bilbo230763' post='594709' date='Sep 10 2009, 01:20 PM']My recollection is Karn is completely untrained and doesn't know what he is doing, he just does it. Or was that just 'anti-establishment' posturing? Who care? He pushed the envelope and that is always a good thing. I'll read it.

    And he had great taste in basses :)[/quote]

    does the case still have the 'arran is for lovers' sticker on it? :)[/quote]

    Hey All

    So I traded this gorgeous bass a couple of weeks ago but a moment of impulse on ebay means it is being moved on

    Rare twin pup active version, two octaves w/zero fret. Twin graphite rod reinforced neck. Comes w/Hiscox hard case

    Great condition (virtually no 'rash) apart from some paintwork scratches top and bottom of body and a dent on the rear of the neck at the 12th fret which the top of your thumb touches should you be up that way. Also a couple of barely perceptible dents on the back of the neck lower down near the 3rd and 5th frets - none of this affects the playability - wickedly fast neck. A couple of v. small bits of chrome have come off the bridge

    Heres the original link (hope you don't mind Andy, playing your Jazz got me to thinking... :))

    Based in Bristol area, prefer collection or will happily meet half way within reason. If you'd rather have it posted we can discuss

    [quote name='fatboytoo' post='583302' date='Aug 28 2009, 10:28 AM']How's about a 44-02? Got a DJ, JO and 44-02. A/Bd 44-94 and 44-02 and had a very hard time justifying the price difference between them.

    Tone/sound and general fit and finish was so close, confident I'd made the right choice of a 44-02 and saved myself enough for a decent Japanese JB too...

    Love the JO and the DJ (both Skylines BTW) and both have their place, but ultimately the 44-02 is that bit more versatile and it's the one I'd go for if the house was on fire!

    Regards

    Rich

    Edit! - ultimately, try before you buy (if you can!)[/quote]

    thanks for that. How do the necks compare on 4402 and dj?

    interesting, I read this before I bought my CIJ. stand corrected

    [quote name='BB2000' post='584182' date='Aug 28 2009, 11:44 PM']That's nonsense, there's no difference between MIJ and CIJ. Recent instruments are all marked CIJ, prior to that they were all marked MIJ.[/quote]

    to confuse matters further it's worth making the distinction between CIJ - made for the domestic market to a very high standard, and MIJ - made for export and regarded as lesser quality, some are basswood etc. having said that many MIJ's are cracking instruments. :rolleyes: it's such an intangible thing: try before you buy innit



    [quote name='arabassist' post='584127' date='Aug 28 2009, 10:42 PM']It seems the classic vibes are a pretty excellent model for their price - i am loving the neck.



    lol what exactly do ya mean by skanky?

    im sorry but...PHWWOOAAR [url="http://www.fender.com/products/prod_images/basses/0254505506_xl.jpg"]http://www.fender.com/products/prod_images...54505506_xl.jpg[/url]



    I assume MIK is made in korea? never heard of that :)

    Is Jazz 24 the only one with 24 fret?

    EDIT: bloody hell, that looks better than the aerodyne [url="http://img3.musiciansfriend.com/dbase/pics/products/0/1/7/558017.jpg"]http://img3.musiciansfriend.com/dbase/pics.../1/7/558017.jpg[/url]

    Oh also, the VMJs have duncan designed puppies - do the ones equipped for MIM and MIA differ?[/quote]

    Amazing fretless bass parts!

    Jaco Pastorius Biography

    The Milkowski book is regarded as the definitive biog. I found it a really good, informative read, and not really contoversial, his problems and behaviour were well documented before its release. It's always nigh on impossible to portray every aspect of someones personal life accurately i guess...
