    You know, as great as Greg is as a Bass expert and as entertaining it is to hear his expert description of the instruments, it's an even bigger treat to just hear him PLAY. He should, without question, be the formally announced host of Thumpin' Thursdays at Norm's. No brainer, win-win.

    I have a 1966 (Aug) vintage Jazz Bass in white with tortie pickguard, identical to this one except for pearloid block inlays and a non-matching headstock.. A great bass, and a keeper. The example demo'd here is a real beauty!

      Well,I can’t please everyone so I’m trying to show what these basses sound like as flat and clear as possible.
      Whether it’s flats or rounds,someone always has a criticism-which is fine.
      If you want to hear the low end use some speakers that can reproduce what’s happening in the room,it DOES help.
