Who hasn’t surpassed Gibson Quality Control? Glarry?
With the Glarry G Jazz II they may have.
I use a short scale bass (Samick Corsair) and it is great for my first bass, but I’m looking at upgrading. I saw a band this weekend and the bassist was playing this bass. Does anyone know what it is? Thanks
Looks like a Fender Jazz.
You can get a Squier Classic Vibe 70s Jazz

Or a Classic Vibe 70s Precision bass
depending on the pickup setup you want. Both are iun the $400 range and Squier is a Fender label.
Or you can get a Geddy Lee Jazz by Fender for 1200

Or you can go for a Fender Ultra Jazz, which starts around $2200. Fender Jazz comes at all price points. This is for the block inlays on a maple fretboard. For dots and other fretboards there are other options. There’s a lot of Jazz models by Fender
Neck pickup looks like a humbucker so maybe not.
You’re right I didn’t pick up on that. Not sure what it is then; generally with a MusicMan/ Jazz pickup arrangement you see the MM on the bridge and the Jazz on the neck, here it’s reversed. Unusual arrangement
Thanks for advice, I’ll check out those recs. Appreciate it!!
Here is my new P bass. An American Pro 2 by fender in Miami Blue (with obligatory Flamingo strap ). I am blown away by the fact that it is impossible to make a passive p bass sound bad. I still don’t want to like Fender, but they do what they do well. I also added the Sadowsky knobs because I didn’t like that the barrel knobs don’t have a marker for where they are at without moving them.
You’ve clearly not watched one of my videos! I really like that colour with the maple
You got style.
I just checked out their website. Tremendous GAS potential. I really like that.
Yea, he makes great stuff. He has a YouTube channel where he shows the process of building everything, really cool if you’re into that. https://youtube.com/c/timsway
Dang, that is one cool bass!
Can you tell us what all the buttons are for?
you can hear it in this video by the luthier Tritone No. 2 Audio Demo - New Perspectives Music - YouTube
