SisterAbdullahX Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 (edited) [quote name='Chadderz' post='1323238' date='Aug 1 2011, 04:46 PM']I'm looking to upgrade from my Fender Jazz into "super jazz" territory. However, my knowledge of the upper end of bass manufacturers is somewhat limited, so I need your help. At this early stage all I'm looking for is as many brands as possible that I can then research and narrow down into a shortlist of basses to try. My budget is up to £3000, although I would be prepared to go slightly over for something special. I'm also very much open to buying used. Thanks guys.

When he says he switched from a bass he'd been totally loving for 7 years that bass he switched from was a Sadowsky! Bass Direct are selling them.
