I prefer the Fender Jazz bass vs the precision bass

I find it a lot easier to play the Fender Jazz bass. Slimmer
neck and better body profile, along with the 2 pickups give a
great variation of sounds. The original electric bass, the
Precision is indeed a ground breaking instrument that brought
the electric bass into recording and live gigs. I find the
Precision bass has a flatter and broader neck and have
difficulty getting around on the neck vs the Jazz bass.
GWG's are currently using a Fender Jazz bass made in China. We
purchased it from Guitar Center about 6 years ago and it has not
imploded or exploded. It is a fine instrument for the low price
we paid for it. It has over 1,200 hours of hard driving playing
on it and we are only on the 3rd set of strings.

Jes.....it outlived the band member who coined the term
"imploding base". ;D

Yes, Jazz Basses are very nice. My Japanese friend has a
metallic green one, a Japanese model, that is beautifully made.

I have an MIJ feesta red Jazz Bass also, but I don't gig w/it.
I want to keep it in nice condition.
