handman Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Hi to you all, really looking for some advice. I have a neck from a standard series just bass they I really like and would like to find a suitable body, I have fitted this neck to a VM fretless body and it seemed to be a good fit, I was wondering if it would fit a J&D jazz body ? Has anybody tried this . I have some entwistle jbxn pick ups,a east j retro pre amp and a high mass bridge , I really enjoy tinkering with guitar's, I'm I wasting my time ? Should I just go for a mm sire v7? Just don't know , birthday in a few days looking for a project \ treat , on decisions ,HELP! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storky Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I did exactly that. I had an original block/bound Fender Precision Bass neck which i put on a J&D natural finished Jazz Body. It was a perfect fit and i gigged it regularly until i decided that the J&D pick ups were not quite cutting it. I replaced it with a Fender Classic 70's Jazz, had it re-finished and coincidentally, ended up putting in an Entwistle JBXN set. It now sounds much better!

handman Posted July 15, 2015 Author Share Posted July 15, 2015 Thanks for the info, pulled the trigger on a sire v7, but the j&d's are so cheap I will still get one ,stick all my bit's on and string it with flag's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hubrad Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Nothing wrong with having one (or more) to play and one (or more) to tinker with.. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
