auvergne81 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Ok, it's little bit exaggeration the 64 was a great jazz bass (i played with many jazz bass US and the 64 was better, best finition, better wood), but this one is clearly a "luthier" jazz bass. the chosen woods are great and the difference with the team built, only one guy builds the bass. it's very to play with this jazz bass, and i'm very difficult to choose one. plugged in my hiwatt the sound is like i wanted since many years.

Marvin Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 [quote name='megallica' timestamp='1353140607' post='1871939'] I'm not really a Fender fan but this bitsa bass is stunning.

My CS would be almost identical. But then you could get it built by someone other than Fender for cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thumperbob 2002 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 My Fiesta Red Roadworn Mexican Jazz would murder any Fender I have ever played- both for tone and playability. I have played lots and lots of Fenders!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BetaFunk Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 [quote name='molan' timestamp='1352896585' post='1868943'] 1960 stack knob Jazz Herbie Flowers model in Lake Placid Blue with Fiesta Red undercoat & heavy relic finish with a tort guard. [/quote] I think that is the most beautiful bass i've ever seen. And that's coming from someone who doesn't normally like relic'd basses.

Of course, mine isn't a CS but it does have the LPB & FR undercoat, lol. Also has a brazilian rosewood board now which is lovely. Must take some new pics and add them to the old build thread!

It was put together by our own cd_david for a Pink Floyd tribute band he played in. It was the best P- bass I ever played, better than my original '75 in the same colour. It now resides with bobpalt of this parish and I think he has added side LED's to it. I really miss this bass.

molan Posted June 8, 2013 Author Share Posted June 8, 2013 How does this list sound. . . '64 Jazz, Sonic blue, New Old Stock, white guard, rosewood board, matching headstock - basically the same as the one above! '60 Jazz, three tone sunburst, mild relic, tort guard, stack knobs, rosewood board '64 Jazz, Olympic white, mild relic, tort guard, matching headstock, rosewood board '68 Jazz, 3TS, mild relic, tort guard, rosewood board with blocks (this may change to a '66 'transition') '59 Precision, Lake Placid blue, mild relic I know where these might be landing in a few months time (and it's not my house!)

Dingus Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 (edited) If I was going to get a Fender Custom Shop bass made for me I would email them a link to this YT clip and tell them to Masterbuild me an exact copy of this bass , but with a quartersawn neck , a Badass bridge , lightweight tuners and easy truss rod access . It's a 73 Jazz and it belongs to the excellent Robin Everhart of Rival Sons : [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JxtqOQIjg44[/media] Beautiful bass , great player , great band .
