Josh Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I remember seeing those around on Ebay a good few years ago, to me they are basically a copy of the Vintage V800-V950 series, well the body is anyways, which is modelled on the Bass Collection, I think.

Guest MoJo Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Is that a thru-neck? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bass_ferret Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 The name is on the headstock - [url="http://www.jandd-guitars.com/index-1.htm"]just google it[/url]. What this forum needs is a smiley for DOH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aj5string Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Kinda looks a bit more like a copy of an Ibanez Soundgear rather than a Vintage? Even the shape of the head isn't a million miles away... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harmony-Central had one review where the cost was 270 euros. They sell a LOT of models. Didn't take the time to find an exact match.

lowhand_mike Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 (edited) this looks like it, though the body may be different on this version [url="http://www.jandd-guitars.com/jd-s4b.htm"]http://www.jandd-guitars.com/jd-s4b.htm[/url] certainly looks like a copy of an SR1000 or SR700, EQ is slightly different though as for price though i didnt find anything on a search for it Edited September 15, 2008 by lowhand_mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoying Twit Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Here's the only price I could find on a J&D bass guitar in the UK. Not the same one, so I'm not sure if this post is of use to anyone.

Faithless Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 It smells like Ibby!... ;-) 'Pure' SR copy from image, except the body - couldn't find similarity on Ibby, though, maybe it a lil bit goes to JTK, doncha think like that, Mike?

Cheers, Faith there ;-)[/quote] headstock certainly looks like a cross between the SR and the JTK/BTB one. the lower bulge on the body(bridge area) is similar to the JTK but i think overall its close to the SR range just not as rounded on the body edges. the lower horn is certain shorter and more stumpy than the ibby ones. but for the money they are going for on that site they look a steal.

Peter Train Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Try this link. I saw one of these in a local shop (mad monk music Kendal) for £270 and I found one on the web for £199 and I like the look of it but I can't find any one who's had one to tell me what its like. I really liked the look and feel of it. [url="http://www.jandd-guitars.com/jd-s4b.htm"]http://www.jandd-guitars.com/jd-s4b.htm[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
