I got this one recently. A Fender Custom Shop 62' Relic Jazz Bass in Sea Foam. The stacked knob controls have been switched with a real 60's vol, vol, tone. Works better for me. Its light weight and really resonant. Sounds absolutely amazing. A bit darker in the tone than most jazzes.

And here it is: (The colour is really really hard to photograph :happy: )

Nice bass, Warren.

Those John Suhr-designed pickups with 1/4 inch magnet slugs on the original series of the American Deluxe Jazz Basses were really good , and better than the Noiseless design Fender replaced them with, in my opinion.

That 75 is lovely. In fact perfect.

Thanks! Obviously I agree lol. The only thing that's nagging me is the white scratchplate... I think parchment or mint green would be more subtle/suitable/vintage (as the binding on the fingerboard has gone creamy over 28 years!) but that's the original 'plate so I'm not sure I want to change it :s
