alfredgodet « An abominable sleeve »
Published on 09/13/13 at 06:36Already this is not a jazz bass neck: 21 cases, very flat and 42mm at the nut. There may have been several series because mine is different from the picture, no marks on the neck except for a small logo in the middle.
UTILIZATION
The handle is a disaster, the frets badly machined and the cutting edge, the tuss rod ineffective (although he screwed up but no effect) so inréglable. The tuners are really junk, impossible to adjust without getting upset ...
The body is better finished, real wood (board meeting in five parts) and rather good-looking. I do not put zero because the bass can be used for decoration.
SOUNDS
Oddly, the sound is not bad, deep, with lots of bass and treble that look good. I think the pickups and electronics are quite good. I must say that I had installed new ropes (Fender 7250ML) for testing, it helps.
OVERALL OPINION
I used one hour at all before dismantling to recover the bridge and pickups. It is a base for a handyman who loves woodworking, not to play bass.
