    Finally got myself a bass. Never had a Japanese Fender before. I’m very impressed! Light weight and strung up with flat wounds. Sounds like 60s-70s Motown.

    • Lovely, would love a Jazz. My first bass was a Mexican Fender in sunburst.kingsteven
    • I have 3 90s Japanese Fender basses tho. PB70US, Bass VI and Mustang. The P is stock with flats and its just perfection.kingsteven

      old photo, the VI was refinished and upgraded shortly after <3      kingsteven
    • Nice! love that 70s Pbass headstock.
      Mine is the JB62. I almost decided on the Pbass.      futurefood
    • I was first looking at a short scale Fender bass, but never tried one out. That Mustang looks sweet!futurefood
    • i know a lot of guitarists choose short scale for their first bass but tbh the mustang isn't 'easier' to play if you're reasonably tall. it's surprisingly...kingsteven
    • similar to the P in sound, i just have regular wound strings on it and set up low for the rattle.kingsteven
    • I just gave away my fender jazz bass when i moved, i miss it, though i just no longer have the timeYakuZoku
    • that things is beautifulYakuZoku
    • Great bass! Japan Fenders are superb imho.fisheye
    • ... I would put a precision neck on it, the jazz neck is to narrow at the nut for me..fisheye
    • @kingsteven it is nothing like a P bass. Totally different animal. Because pickups configuration.fisheye
