Fender '70s Jazz

I've always been a sucker for a sultry Latina and this Mexican beauty has joined my family......

The seller thinks it was a special production run of the 70s Jazz bass made for one of the big chains as it came stock with the samarium cobalt noiseless pickups and a BadAss II bridge and a Hipshot d-tuner was added. (One of the knobs fell off - the set screw just needs to be tightened)

All I've done to her is put on flatwounds and tweaked the setup, she plays like butter and sounds great (without the single coil hum)

(Sorry for the poor quality Crackberry picture - she's residing at my office)

Ok, I have to ask: What's with the saw blade back there. Planning a few mods? hahaha

Me too, I'm usually more of a maple fretboard kind of guy but the rosewood on this one is a rich chocolate brown and I love the inlays.
