Too bad they didn't make a white (as opposed to cream) pickup for the JCS. I'm digging' the Allen Woody though - I've got the standard one - would be nice to have one of each - wonder how much I could get for the red one on trade for the blue? Which begs the question - which retailers will be getting these in the US?

Both are lovely.  If that Casady had been out when I got one, I'd have gone that way for sure!

I agree there are too many temptations here.

I'm not sure how much that Jazz pickup adds to the sound but I'd like to get one stock and see.

What you hear there is the J pickup solo'ed, I'm pretty sure.

That alpine white JCS is 95% perfect. What would make it hit the 100% is matching white headstock and ofcourse BLACK HARDWARE MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Living in Germany has exposed you to anti-chrome bias.  I wonder who is to blame for that.  ;)

Yeah, My black JC didn't sound much like that at all. I still may keep an eye out for a white one though. I loves me some white basses.

That doesn't sound anything like the couple I've heard played live, so I'd agree that it must be the J soloed.

Absolutely.
The original JCS sound leans more towards a Precisions sound. But (a lot) less authoritative.
