@ac3320ac3320 - hi there. this is probably gonna be a disappointing answer but i honestly have no idea regarding the tech stuff like "series" or "parallel" or what pickups are installed :( all i know is that it has the aggie pre. i didn't have this custom made...i kinda just ordered it from sleekelite when i saw that they had it. sorry for the lack of info friend :(

This video is perfect. I'm glad you showed more than one style of playing. Most people just play slap. All of the tones from these basses are beautiful. Your playing is amazing, as well. Never stop!

Wow. A thing of beauty, but the fretboard needs a little time to get used to.hehe. Great bass guitar, but it's the guitar player who does wonders, wish I could play bass as wonderful and as artful as you.

in my my most humble opinion, IN TERMS OF JAZZ BASSES, i've decided to keep my dingwall, '72 fender jazz, MM fender jazz and hope to get an Fbass VF4, '69 fender, '63 fender. don't take my word for it though...i probably didn't maximize the capabilities of the other basses i tried out due to time constraints or having a bad ear day hehe. forgive me for being a bit chatty...i havn't slept and my mind was burning the remaining coffee coursing through my veins. hope that all made sense - karel H.

so basically i got the bass primarily for it's function, then it's sound secondarily...i was surprised as hell though the 1st time i plugged in...it sounds GREAT! i honestly don't have alot of experience when it comes to compering this bass to other jazz basses in the market. i tried and owned a few jazz basses (namely fbass, fodera, sadowsky, vintage fender, modulus, mike lull, atelier Z, and others i can't remember clearly) -continued-

the problem with my way of playing is my left shoulder is hyper-extended all the time and i developed this nasty problem on my left wrist due to the odd positions i get myself into (chords with the 9th as the top note or other uncomfortable finger positionings.) the super J fretboard may seem weird at 1st but it is definitely effective in assessing those problems i've been encountering. the neck is great too...really thin yet sturdy resembling 60's jazz bass. -continued-

@ike1500 - hi there. i guess i did miss out a few details hehe. on the specifics, the body is alder, morado fingerboard, aguilar OBP1 preamp and the weight is ridiculusly light...too light infact...but it's great for people with back issues. the reason why i got the bass in the first place is due to it's ergonomic fingerboard. i have fairly short fingers and i usually play with the bass centered on my body as to having it slightly off-centered leaning a bit more to my plucking hand. -continued-
