Default Playing Bass Guitar Again!!!

Now that I'm recording again I decided to get back into bass. Hadn't played/owned one in a very long time. My last one was a Warwick.
This time I went with a good old reliable American Standard Fender Jazz Bass.
Never played one before but figure if JPJ and Jaco made one work all those years it's a no brainer choice.

The modeler I have has a Ampeg SVT patch which sounds killer with some added reverb, compressor, and light chorus thru an 8 x 10 cab.

New clips coming soon!

(gotta whip my left hand into bass shape again first)

Ah the Fender jazz bass, I've played around on one of those, sweet.

If I ever get back into playing I want to go for a Aria SB1000

I added a thumb rest on the bass side of the JB so I can anchor my thumb while plucking with my index and middle fingers.

Oh, and....

Hmmm pretty good, I've got to get the nut and the input jack fixed on my old bass...should probably toss it really. For now though I'm stuck in guitar world. A Les Paul is my goal.
