dpaulb Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 I am so glad I found this! One of my local shops had about 2 dozen basses in stock of which I played 8 off that kind of interested me. I narrowed my choices to 3. This, an MIJ Maui Blue Fender Precision and a Lakland Skyline 44-60 Vintage Custom in Lake Placid Blue with a maple fret board. The Precision felt great and played well but was deemed less versatile. The 44-60 felt great and played well but was too heavy. I couldn't find a thing wrong with this Jazz Bass. It only weighs 9.75 pounds. Even with the stock strings it sounds really good through my Eden WT-550 and Bag End S15X-D. Later I'm going to oil the fret board and restring it with Pryamid Gold flat wounds. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpaulb Posted July 30, 2023 Author Share Posted July 30, 2023 Played about 45 minutes after putting on the Pryamid Golds. Whether playing with fingers, pick or palm muting with a pick is absolutely wonderful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burns-bass Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Look stunning. The Vinters range offer huge amounts of value and this looks excellent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
