dave_bass5 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 I really like the look (and price) of the jazz. I love blocks and inlays but not on a maple fretboard so i like the clean look of these necks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Schoen Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 My Precision arrived from Thomann yesterday, I love the colour. Plays and sounds good too, it's a keeper.

Clarky Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Erm, I would check on that. The link to the Jazz is now defunct and I can't find mention of the bass on the Fender page listing the new FSR series Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Apple Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Each to their own. I saw this finish on a Strat up in Denmark St today. Much avocado-ier in real life. Def not for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stacker Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 They should reissue the Sienna Sunburst finish. Guess they may if they've resuurected this finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shockwave Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 I just ordered my jazz from Thomann, first brand new bass in a long time! Sold my Ovation Magnum to fund it, sad day and probably fairly unbalanced valuewise. But I am a sucker for puke! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Fender made the right choice putting maple fretboard on these. The only thing i dont like is the bridge. I just prefer something a bit chunkier so i'd put a Gotoh 201 on it if i had one.

alanbass1 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I've always liked the finish. Almost bought an antigua P Bass in '79 but it was so heavy I decided to go for the Stingray they had in the store which, as I have since found out, is an unusually light Stingray.....
