Members The Real MC Posted June 28, 2009 Members Share Posted June 28, 2009 I own a '00 MIM Jazz that had a great sound and played really nice. I had been looking for another one but it was real hard finding one that both played and sounded like mine. I guess I landed a good one. Well yesterday I finally found it. It was not quite what I expected. This one is a '98 MIM Jazz in the SAME FINISH (midnight blue). Not only that, it's a fretless and I had been thinking about grabbing one for awhile. This one was used and priced at $270, pretty good bargain. Has stock bridge (to be replaced with Gotoh soon) and stock tuners, not sure about the pickups because they are HOTTER than the Dimarzio Ultra Jazz pups in the '00. So now I have twin MIM Jazz basses, one fretted and one fretless both in the same finish. That was a find... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members B-Bottom Posted June 28, 2009 Members Share Posted June 28, 2009 I have leads on 2 MIM Jazz basses that are really good bargins. I'm just wondering if it's worth not eating for a few days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members The Real MC Posted June 29, 2009 Author Members Share Posted June 29, 2009 I didn't forget the pics, had to wait until retrofit was done. New strings, Gotoh bridge and new knobs installed (eagle-eyed trainspotters will note the bridge saddle positions... believe it or not, those ARE correct) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
