phsycoandy Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 (edited) I havent porned this one before as shes not as pretty as my GB, but here goes, not the best pics as my daughters messed off with the decent camera to Paris. I think shes still got 40 years grime on her aswell (not the daughter the bass!) I must get round to cleaning her and do some decent pics! This may be For Sale shortly, if anyone is interested, PM me and we can talk. 1969 Jazz bazz, active EMG pups but gladly no nasty routs as the battery is under the control plate, and odd bridge. Very well played as you can see and a superb neck. Enjoy. Edited October 23, 2008 by phsycoandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ped Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Very nice :0) That bridge isn't odd - its a Schaller 3D and one of the best designs out there IMO! Cheers ped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Don't the EMG's take away some of that essential classic jazz tone Andy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subjective as I say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamthewalrus Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I love old Jazzes - that is totally top quality, even with the Schaller bridge & the EMG's. Cheers, iamthewalrus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
