    My latest acquisition. Fender Reggie Hamilton Jazz Bass.

    Features include passive/active selector switch, 3band active EQ (when selected), Fender Noiseless bridge p/up, stock P bass neck p/up, blend pot and Hipshot D-tuner.

    Awesome versatility in this beastie, and it plays like a dream. Looks lovely too.

    This is now my go-to recording bass. Hopefully it will get a workout later this year.

    I like the p/j combo, great versatile mix of sounds. I've recently put a d tuner on my jazz, don't know why I've never done it before, what a wicked little gizmo. This is the second new store bought for you in a week, dude. Spoilt.

    I've allowed myself a small lash-out. Still got the ESB-4 and the Klein horror to contend with, so I'll have my hands stained with Wudtone in no time.

    This is the next object of desire to save up for... watch this space!

    It comes pre-built. At least it had better!

    for $1650 you would hope so BG !
    sounds like it should be easy to assemble with 10 odd parts they talk about but there's at least 30 parts in the 10 tuners alone !

    That is a very cool looking thing but it also looks too hard for an old man to learn. She's all yours Eliot.
