- It's a Jazz Bass made in Japan (2002-2004): Jb75us - 100
- Fine body, neck and Fingerboard Saddle varnish.
- 2 Fender pickups us 75.
UTILIZATION
- The bass is a bit heavy (frne)
- The neck is really excellent (Saddle varnish) with frets lower than on a standard jazz bass.
SOUNDS
- The pickups are Fender U.S. 75 (the same as the fender us vintage)
- Excellent for all styles (rock, funk, blues, soul, jazz ...)
- The key in Saddle adds shine and "snap" sound.
- Adding a push-pull series / PARALLEL, it becomes much more versatile with a big sound in between a precision and a jazz bass.
OVERALL OPINION
- Pros:
- Lutherie really great.
- Shielding of electronics with copper tape under the knobs and pickups
- The big vintage sound.
- Its well balanced for each string
- Channel varnish very pleasing
- Cons:
- Hardware possibly change (: Mechanical and bridge)
- Nut encrusted well (prvoir a go at the maker of any changes)
- Low fairly heavy 4.8kg
I would do it without hesitating choice
