Yea. I really love the maple fretboard, with the white block inlays. Then I want that Precision. Then I'll have all the basses I need. :thumb:

^thats... Next week for me...:D:D:D:D:D

A LOT of pictures please of it Martin. If I didn't need a bass head so bad, I could have my Fender Japan in a month or two. :(

Will do... But it gonna take alittle modification... (only a Badass II bridge as the visible thing right now, but..)

That Jazz would look quite interesting in black with the rosewood fingerboard, having a black pickguard and all.

I'd get one of those Jazzes but they're around £100 more than the Precisions :upset:

thats th extra pickup...:p

So, I'm hopefully getting me a GK head this weekend...Then I start saving for my Jazz.

[QUOTE=Eddie-the-Trooper]thats th extra pickup...:p[/QUOTE]

Let's not forget how expensive it is to put those two "z"s on the headstock as well :p

ofcourse....:p

They should have just called it the Fender "Ja" and reduced the price by a few hundred dollars. :p

They should just not call it anything and sell it for 50 bucks.

Noone's posted in here for 3 hours...that's strange

It is just WOOD as a matter of fact.. I think you pay a lot more for the name than the real quality.

Well, you're also paying for the bridge, the body shape, pick-ups, price varies depending on what type of pickups, active or passive, you pay for a lot of things, the pricing of the wood I think remains the same, since it doesn't change unless you get an American, which is supposed to feel much better than a Mexican.

A come on.. Making parts can't be SO much money?

You have to pay all the workers though. The raw materials themself doesnt cost that much, its juts labour, machinery, etc.

Also, the companies want to make some profit!

But still!
800 dollar for a bass! It is just so much and still not perfect..

And the improvement you make from a 300 dollar bass to a 800 dollar bass isn't like: WOW this is REALLY worth it.

Then.....don't buy the friggin' bass?

True!
And then.. I'm talking about fender basses :thumb:

you better watch it... :mad:


But Sadowsky! i see absolutely No reason for paying that 'kin Much for something fender does just as good!

Yeah! Im Proud to be a Fender Bassist!

That will get people there... for sure!




joe

I've never played a shadowsky, but I've played fenders and thought: hé I've payed 300 less for a better bass!

This is what I was going to post in the temp casual (mostly in reply to Paul) before it was locked a couple of minutes ago:

Because the new subforums aren't locked... Maybe they aren't lockable? Due to some new fangled thing in vBulletin? or maybe they just dodged the spambot attack, as they are new and have some defence against it? Who knows? Not I, said the tiger to the fly... :amaze:

I'm so f[b]u[/b]cking starving, and my house currently harbours no food. Fortunately, my parents are food shopping as we speak. So I should be a happy, fed bunny soon enough!

On a side note, I thought I'd tell everyone that missed it the first time that I've got a girlfriend now, and you should all be proud :lol:

How are you all?

:smash:

You have a girlfriend!!! Yay!

What's she like? Post pictures :p
