Fender Standard Jazz Bass [1990-2005]

Jazz bass made in mexico for left, made in 2001/2002 according to the information I

maple neck rosewood fingerboard.

UTILIZATION

the handle is a highway, a bit thicker and wider than my ibanez, but the string spacing, touch the handle as happy ...

the small problem is the weight ... it weighs! on the other hand, well balanced for my taste, it falls alone

Access to acute is correct.

The sound ... it's just royal, vintage, huge personality and simplicity of a passive bass (it sounds, it is easy to adjust, and you get a variety of sounds quite impressive)

SOUNDS

I was getting tired of my Cort A4 (very good bass, go anywhere, but little to no personality to my taste)

There is happiness, slamming metal sound, serious deaf ... she knows everything

I do not control the slap, but it should certainly ensure this register

I use a combo markbass CMD 121 H simply deadly.

For my part, I think I found my half!

OVERALL OPINION

I received 10 days ago, I played every day since she attracts me obsessed ... lol

I tried Jazz bass in mex and american standard. Frankly my violin Southwestern is more than correct, it is beautiful (at least for a low left-handed, it changes the black / white or sunburts pickard / violet...beurk)

In short, it is beautiful, it sounds so ... although the weight, I dab!

Unbeatable value for money ... and because I found my half bassistique ... I would do this choice with your eyes closed

The jazz bass "standard" is a jazz bass made by Fender in Mexico. Mexican manufacturing is for the midrange fender because of inferior wood, less efficient pickups and finish sometimes perfectible ... but in reality it depends on the models ... Some Mexican goods also equals the performance of their elders ... But back to the cot technique! this bass has 20 frets and has two "bars", the bridge is pretty mediocre, but it can not be changed for very cheap (15 euros), it has 3 knobs, one micro and one for the general tonality. The neck is typical JB, rather late (ideal for small mimine!). Finally, it is a passive low

UTILIZATION

I've never felt so at ease on a low ... the aesthetic is perfect for my taste (some criticize his classicism) and the handle runs directly on the fingers ... a real treat! access to your top is acute, with nothing to say negative ...

SOUNDS

This bass is a model of versatility ... I first lot of styles with no problems, funk to jazz to metal by the blues and rock ... ny'a it in large parts of slap or active electronics would be welcome! (But the slap is affordable)
The sustain is good or very good depending on the model is able to satisfy lovers of harmonic pastorussiennes ...

OVERALL OPINION

For 680 euros (710 left-handed) is an exellent low dot a very good potential ... every time I try an American JB I tell myself that I was right to not slam 1500 euros ... the difference between Mexican and U.S. price level for me is not justified, fender just needs to pay the brand and the "prestige" ... :-(
I bought this bass for about 6 months, I am fully satisfied and I never had a problem with ...
just one thing, if possible try to store not have bad surprises ... (Like all the bass there ...)

Mex
Two different volumes for each pickup is not great for cutting short the sound, but it is
easel pathetic, but hey, the sound seems not to suffer. mechanical sheet metal, fender it, but hey, oil baths not cost more bcp fender sir!!

UTILIZATION

Channel fabulous, I could never play on a bass that does not have the same characteristics of round!
Ergonomics: slight imbalance (head a little pic) used a leather strap and use a little do not worry
by IDAL is against the weight, my old bass (aria pro RS60) weighed twice!

SOUNDS

The sound is always Submitted. VERSATILITY is his second name!
the two flight gives the best background has made me.
well as a solo passage only with acute micro is amazing!

OVERALL OPINION

I used the past year. I prefer: the sound and the handle (the other low n have no handle, they are baseboards!). what I like least: ca ben made 10 minutes I opened the ":" I see and what to write.
qualitprix special report.
with the number of bass that I tried before buying, I know I would do the same purchase today

It's a jazz!
say no more, if there are good and bad, but when you come across a good ....

UTILIZATION

Directions: do you find good Mexican with wood stabiliss (5 years of seniority at least), remove him and put his microphone to the Bartolini (for example), take him and his keys Fill it with Gotoh jazz, the agreement that fully ...
That's what I did, and I can tell you that I n'changerai not change my mex amricaine against a current (as against, if an original 66, you can contact me ...)
Without fun, you just have to find them good, because it is like Squiers, there are not great and REALLY disturbing depending on the year, some are impossible to distinguish a amricaine standard blind-test ... the rest is business as objectification and wallet!

SOUNDS

Sound? : JAZZ BASS you were told!

OVERALL OPINION

If you want a good Jazz without breaking the bank, this is the solution:
a Mexican secondhand + micro + Barto mcaniques of Gotoh (rigor and a Badass bridge for those who love), we can made prs 300 200 100 = approximately 600euros for something that sounds as what is found for double the price!
