Re: [SurfGuitar101] 2 Bass Questions

DP (noetical1) - 04 Nov 2005 11:22:11

Jeff:
It's cool for you to want whatever you want in a bass as
far as features and tone.
Will this bass be used mostly in the surf realm, or do you
have other jobstypes of music that you will be playing? The
split pickup/jazz pickup is very common and desirable for
contemporary bass sounds.
Additionally, the 21-fret neck is often used by
contemporary players.
However I play a single pickup Fender bass with 20 frets.
Just a P-bass, that's all.
