neepheid Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 You couldn't have searched very hard, I found 2 pages of references for the search string 'fender jaguar' (forum wide search). Look again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LukeFRC Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 for all your "i wanna play guitars in sonic youth and look cool" moments which you band tries to repress- Fender Jaguar bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeFRC Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 (yes i know they mostly used jazzmasters before someone corrects me- but it looks closer to that than a Pbass!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 I saw pics of a "vintage white" one that looked even cooler than the red one, but white doesn't seem to even be available as an option in japan now - they do have sunburst though.

baixo Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I love my Jaguar bass, the neck is fantastic and the series/parallel sw gives a good variation of sounds form traditional Jazz to P bass. The active Eq is not up to much but it sounds great in passive mode anyway. I got mine second hand from this forum, a Black one which was already modded with a Badass II bridge and Ken Armstrong Bass Lipsticks PUs. I am thinking of getting another one imported from Japan (Ishibashi), a non export vintage white with a tort pickguard which are only available in Japan (will match my Fender Jazzmaster guitar) Joao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tait Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 (edited) I'm only really a fan of the white and sunburst ones, I always feel jaguars have to look old and retro, but the black and red look modern. The white seems a completely different bass to me, much cooler than the black or red. Edited January 30, 2008 by lwtait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cris the man Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 fender jaguar basses do look real snazzy and have a great sound also a plus side they dont have that silly bridge they have for the jaguar guitars , the strings slide off it!
