BetaFunk Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1369904180' post='2094075'] Have you posted any photos of your 60s basses anywhere on here? I'd be interested in seeing them - especially the Burns Sonic, since one of those was the first bass I ever owned. Mine is hardly in original condition, as it had been extensively modified by a previous owner, and I made more modifications in order to keep it playable. I also had a Futurama bass as my spare for a while (and a Baldwin 12-string), and still have a soft spot for the more unusual (but still usable) 60s instruments. [/quote] I've just posted a photo of my Burns Sonic in the the gear porn section under 'Burns Basses'. I will put photos of my VOX Clubman and Bassmasters when after i've re-assembled them as i still have a bit to do on these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iiipopes Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 One overlooked item: the Jaguar-derived bass has a shorter upper horn, and may have neck dive. I'd go with the P-bass version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BILL POSTERS Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 (edited) Way way back in time around 1993 , one of the larger shops in Brum ( Jones & Crossland iirc) had a Fender Jazz for sale that had a loaded strat scrachplate / pickups fitted. I played it and it sounded OK., at least in the shop. and I was almost tempted. So the answer is yes, it works sometimes anyway. Cant help but wonder about how it got to be that way, who would do such a thing ? Edited June 1, 2013 by BILL POSTERS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
