MGR/PAUL VIGOS FROM ATHENS GREECE « Fender Mexican Jazz Bass Standard »
Published on 12/01/03 at 15:00PURCHSED IN ATHENS GREECE AT 350 EUROS THIS BASS WAS THE BEST POSSIBLE SOLUTION AT THIS LEVEL OF PRICE. THE REASON THAT I BOUGHT IT WAS THAT I LIKE DTHE FEELING OF TEH FRETBOARD OF A JAZZ BASS
THE FEELING IS VERY GOOD IN TERMS OF EASY PLAYING.
ALDER BODY AND MAPLE NECK ARE OK SELECTIONS.
THE FEELING IS VERY GOOD IN TERMS OF EASY PLAYING BUT THE SOUND WAS A BIT "DRY".
THE QUALITY OF THE BRIDGE CAN BE ACCEPTABLE BUT ONLY FOR A FEW MONTHS.
THE PICTURE WAS CLEAR : BOTH PICKUPS AND BRIDGE WOULD SOON NEED TO BE UPGRADED.
ANOTHER DRAWBACK WAS THAT THE NECK SUFFERED A LOT FROM CONCAVE ESPECIALLY ON THE NECK JOINT. FRETS NEED TO BE RUBBED TO AVOID BUZZING. I DO NOT KNOW IF A DOUBLE TRUSS ROD WOULD HELP ALL BASSES THAT HAVE THIS QUALITY NECKS.
GOOD QUALITY BUILT BUT THE NEW SET OF FENDER USA JAZZ BASS 62 PICKUPS ADDED VOLUME ATTACK AND BETTER TONE.
AS I SAID BEFORE BRIDGE WAS POOR. SO THE BADASS II BRIDGE MADE THE BASS SOUND MORE PUNCHY.
IN GENERAL THIS BASS AFTER THE UPGRADE SOUNDS LIKE A 90% ORIGINAL USA FENDER JB.
IT IS ALSO A GOOD ALL AROUND SOLUTION FOR MANY MUSIC STYLES.
