I will again stress the exeptional comfort of the handle of the jazz bass from all the other classics, and whose ratings were reviewed by Mr t Geddy Lee seems to me there. Trs of finely crafted Japanese is the comparison with amricaines. I must say that last year I possde this bass did not move the handle. Only a small mcaniques mritent BMOL, I've changed for vintage Fender Schaller type, more prcises. Replaceable in the white pickguard trs common for a fawn MODEL "Quail Turtle" this bass is at once a great vintage look: I love ... The bass is home team with a badass II bridge, a big plus for the prcison rglages and sustain, the sustain ... And finally rcemment I opt for the replacement of American Vintage pickups for Nückel Barne, these microphones are hand made in England, what the great class. Premire conclusions after one week: the one who wins indniablement trs equilibrated in heat, and precision in Aiges. And the bass seems less sensitive to noise, but is confirmed. A beautiful opration I do not regret even if we had to cel I dbourse prs 200.
UTILIZATION
The legendary jazz bass the SETTING THE: simplicity, efficiency brief sound in all circumstances. We understand why this is indmodable low.
The handle is comfortable and fast trs, the gloss vintage does not catch, even with sweat. I have not proven the need to Posner, and it would be a shame to take away the charm .. And gives the key rablelui rsolument prdisposition for a slap. The Badass II bridge to adjust the string action with great precision, nothing wrong.
SOUNDS
I bought this bass to play soul and jazz, and draw near to the famous jazz bass sound from the 70s/80s, without putting the budget to offer me a "real" vintage. And I must say that this bass rpond trs well my expectations for this style of music. And my group is convinced! In contrast to my Warwick. The two open mics background, Tone 100% I find this depth, the roundness typical jazz bass, and if the grain in slap CHARACTERISTICS .. a part of music history. In privilgiant gradually bridge pickup, the Tone 50%, and adapting his game to the finger prs of the bridge, we obtain without difficulty that famous color mdium here Dfine good and clear, certainly Saddle the key is for nothing. And even the strings are important. I use Elixir 45-105, APRS and have tried Rotosound of the same tie, the strings of the 70 traditional, there is a fan or not, personally I like less about comfort and .. . but the look is perfect.
OVERALL OPINION
I possde this bass for a year, I love its versatility, the concept of jazz bass and simplicity ... not making head in fine with rglages, the sound is always the matter the hardware derrire, amplifier, mixer. Aguilar combo on my sound is clear and prcis on scne are deep and serious group sound is the well Dfine. By boosting the treble a bit I found that I like grain.
While this is not the sound of the great violin, nor the warmth of the era of jazz bass, but less than 1000 was an instrument of good quality and trs Having tried a few others including jazz bass amricaines, it is certainly for me the best price at this level of Fender. I must say that I even prfre the Deluxe 5c I AM a few years ago, may be because I found him a more natural cot.
