....and came back with this!



I was fiddling around with the basses in Sounds Live in Newcastle, mainly to have a go on one of those 70's Classic Jazz Basses (pretty nice actually) when I spotted this fella hanging on the wall. 2008 Jazz Bass in Olympic white with a tortioseshell scratchplate and maple neck.
Got it down for a twiddle and just HAD to have it. It's far and away the nicest Jazz I've played.
Just a tweak on the truss rod and a slight lowering of the action was needed and Bob most certainly was my uncle.

How much did it set you back?

799 - Could've got one for less on t'internet but I do like to have a good old rummage if I'm spending that much, don't like to take pot luck, I want the best one in the shop!
It wasn't really an impulse buy to be honest, I was intending to get a 70's classic but this fella was soooo much nicer and only 200 and odd quid more with that indestructible case they come with.
I'm well happy - it sounds fab and plays really well. If this is typical of what Fender are knocking out these days then good on 'em!

I did go clothes shopping (on't t'internet) & bought this...



But I know what you're saying about Music Shops... I spend a lot of time in Electro in Doncaster & at times it's a real candy store! It's a real excercise in self control to leave empty handed. But this coming week I'm going to the ultimate candy store... The Status-Graphite factory in Colchester :)
