Ajoten Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 I played a Jazz with the S1 switch last week, and with the switch engaged it sounded sweet. Really really nice. Obviously because it's A Good Thing, Mr Fender has ditched the idea - so is it possible to get a similar sound out of one of the huge range of current Jazz range? Passive P with a J neck would be ideal of course, but I've not made my mind up about the look/quality of either Aerodyne yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul S Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 The Jaguar bass does this in it's vast repertoire of noises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joegarcia Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 Pretty easy mod. Got my tech to do it for my last Jazz and it worked a treat with a push/push pot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
