Fell for another Jazz bass

[drbassman]

These are all good questions that I didn't contemplate when I bought it.  Since they are obviously too complex to answer sufficiently without my head exploding   , I'm just going to muddle ahead and do my best.  As for the bass, I don't even need a case. I'll just tie a string around the strap buttons and toss it over my shoulder!

Hmm... now there's a thought... buy a cheaper standard model, tie it to the rear bumper (fender to you USA folks), and go for a drive down a nice gravel road... every one guaranteed unique... I stand to make an absolute mint...

I'm not concerned.  I got it cheap and do like the look.  First time a relic bass has ever appealed to me!

Finally got around to some pics............

It really does sound and play really nice!

I was going to ask if that was Fiesta Red, then I took the extreme step of actually going back to the first post and reading it.  Yes!

I like it, but I gotta think it's pining for a bridge cover with a big F on it.

I used to love the "big F" covers, but I didn't install the one on my CAR jazz and one didn't come with this one.  I'm liking them all naked!

OK, I see your point!  That is pretty!  Need my sunglasses to tone down all that glitter!!!!

all kidding aside i have always liked the looks of that bass.

Thanks.  I got lucky with that photo and the reflections on the chrome really set it off nicely. 

I haven't played it in a while and I think I'll pull it out tonight.

Yeah, you gotta be careful about those chrome reflections...

And that is a good lookin' bass.

Never shoot chromey bass pix au natural. ....

Maybe that's why Uwe is the Dark Lord...
