Ha, fooled you. I am a pretty crappy bass player, I'm just really into gear. I usually play drums.

New Geddy Lee signature is pretty sweet, around the same price as the american J-bass though.

Thanks, I think I found what I was looking for: A sky blue p-bass with a few modifications.

nice

what sort of 'modifications' are you talking about?

And well worth the price. The neck on those things is so fast. I just wish they were American made.

Some better pickups, a special neck, and better tuning pegs.

Which one did you get?

Necks are relatively hard to find unless you have them custom made, AFAIK. Be sure to post pics when you get it!

64' Jazz FTW

The top one, but with a brown pickguard, and a darker neck. And it was a regular Fender, not a Squier. I think it was custom made for someone before.
