[quote name='thedontcarebear' post='387621' date='Jan 21 2009, 04:34 PM']I just like new things basically, I will admit I buy to make myself happy for 5 minutes before the remorse kicks in.[/quote] +1 hammer----nail----head

there's no better feeling than getting a new bass home for the first time,for me anyhow,coupled to the fact i just love looking at basses. also i'm very impulsive,i can be reading a book which has a photo of say a really nice Jazz/Precision & i just have to have one like it,can't help myself. i know it won't make me a better player but what the hell I NEED IT.

i bought one just before christmas,amber/maple & it's the best bass i've played in the last 30 years period. it's absolutley awesome in all respects,infact it feels like it was custom built just for me-if you know what i mean. build quality is second to none & an awesome variety of very usable tones, i love it. get it bought

i owned a black one & have to say it was a really nice bass,the only downside for me was the preamp-i just couldn't get "that" sound from it,but i am a fussy old blues fart. i should think it will excel in a rock/punk type of band,but they do look cool don't they.

that Jazz is beautiful

my band have supported 9 Below Zero 3 times & really enjoyed it. Gerry was a top bloke on all occasions but i have to say that on those same 3 occasions that Dennis was a total arrogant prick. shame really as my brother/guitarist used to be a fan-but alas no longer.

i just bought Clarky's ( & my old) 2007 Jazz bass. chuffed to bits with the bass it's a minter just as Clarky said it was. really nice guy to deal with & very fast(i.e. next day)delivery. all in all Clarky is a top bloke,hell i'd even trust him with my wifes chastity belt key Neil.

[quote name='Rich' post='382143' date='Jan 16 2009, 12:05 PM']I am deeply liking the sunburst J at the bottom of the list. 650 quid, oh god I can hear my credit card whispering bad things to me...[/quote] lol me too,i really like the white one to & its "only" £300 more. GET IT BOUGHT

[quote name='eude' post='382093' date='Jan 16 2009, 11:04 AM']I took delivery of an all black Shuker J Bass just before Christmas and it rocks! The best Jazz bass I've ever played, plus it's to my specs too. I'm hoping to get some nice pictures of it soon, at the moment I never seem to be out of the office during daylight which makes photography difficult. Sorry though, not up for swapping... Cheers, Eude[/quote] sounds like a beaut,get some photos up please to keep my GAS fueled.

[quote name='Sean.Robinson' post='381560' date='Jan 15 2009, 07:02 PM']I thought the exact same thing. When i saw it on the background i was amazed and then when i saw it was for sale, it was nearly too much. If i wasn't having one custom made i would have snapped it up the second it came on the site, personally i think you should do me a favor and buy it [/quote] oh it's very tempting--i've got an empty visa card telling me the same thing. the wife'd kill me though.
