1978 Fender Jazz. What can I say? Ya gotta have a good old Fender. Along with my G3 and Elan 6, this bass was a primary Soulcage axe and is currently getting a work out with Charles Parker, Chaz DePaolo and Terry Gleason. It records great! I used it on Bill Dickson's Embracing The Light. A great slapper and the best way to endear yourself to an engineer. If they look at you funny when you pull out your Alembic, (or your new 8 string!) you'll win them over with a great J-bass! to ad
