My New Obsession

With my sons as my inspiration, I have wanted to relearn the Bass. With this new goal, I have determined to buy myself my first electric bass. I want to stay true to my father and buy a "Fender Jazz Bass" but which one?

Clarke recommended that I check out this bass and I love it. It is part of Fender's signature line of Jazz Basses. It is modeled after Fender's classic 1970's Jazz Bass. I am plastering pictures of this Bass all over a jar and will then use the jar as a collection cup for my odd change and present money so that I can save up the required funds ($600 - $800). I am expecting that this project will take some time, maybe 2010 or 2011? Cross my fingers.

Geddy Lee Jazz Bass®

Mean, mean stride! Our Geddy Lee Jazz Bass guitar is an exact replica of the tonally singular instrument that Rush’s revered bassist/vocalist has riffed away on in front of thousands of devoted fans worldwide and on many a mega-selling album.The bass has an alder body; the one-piece C-shaped maple neck (thin) has a maple fingerboard with black binding and black rectangular position markers. The two vintage Jazz Bass single-coil pickups crackle with life and bristle with the energy; other features include chrome hardware, vintage-style tuning machines and a Badass® Bass II™ bridge.
