A Ric huh? I haven't really considered one before. Never played one. I was leaning toward a Thunderbird. It's just next on my list. But I do wish I had the AC in the collection before I move on. I also want an early 50's Precision, either real or MIA reissue.


HEY! Aren't you Eichie Bon? (#1)

I like the last line in your signature. An unfortunate issue, but you show character in adversity! Image

:lol: Thanks. The only other thing I could do is stomp around and all that but I'd get nowhere. At least now I'm getting nowhere with a bit more class.

Have you seen any reasonably priced AC Jazzes around, lately?

Yea, I'm looking at one on ebay right now. Considering making an offer. Also got this email from my tech guy, from his Fender guy, regarding me:

"I understand where his frustration is coming from. Unfortunately, the body is taking a lot longer than expected, but it is not because we don’t care. The fact of the matter is, this is a uncommon color. The factory runs on a schedule, and when an uncommon color needs to be sprayed they usually wait until there are several pieces of the same color before they spray. Also, as a non-warranty body, there’s not a lot of push to be made to fulfill this order when there are warranty orders to be fulfilled.

I sent an email down to the factory to maybe help speed the process, but there’s only so much I can do for a non-warranty order. I’ll forward this to the Consumer Relations team to contact the customer."


…which never happened. But I actually appreciate seeing even this, as it tells me they're at least aware of me. But I'm still no closer to my goal.

Not to change the subject, but mine arrived yesterday and I got to gig with it last night. My Highway 1 Jazz is a great guitar (in my world, anyway) but the Adam Clayton Jazz is...even better, and better than expected. The sound is classic Jazz Bass but seems more defined than my H1. The neck and fretboard are superb. Fit/finish are flawless.

Probably so, I lurk over there and at TGP, too.
Good luck with Fender. I hope you get your replacement ACJB body soon.

edit: You're right. I wasn't paying attention.
See ya around the bass forums...

Ghastly, once again, you have more patience than I have, or would have waiting for whatever on the AC Jazz replacement.

Hey! Just got this from my tech:


"Steve,

Miracle of all miracles…your body landed this afternoon! Didn’t realize it was made of gold that had to be mined from the caves of the Sierras, LOL

That said, this coming week is backed up due to Xmas, but will do my best to expedite doing all the parts swap, restring & setup. Will know more about an ETA in the next few days. "



Maybe there is a Santa Claus?!

"IT'S BEGINNING TO LOOK A-LOT LIKE CHRIST-MAS…" :P

I'm genuinely glad that you'll be united with your estranged friend. Good news! Image
