Hi everyone. I have a JR Jazz Bass in Ash. I bought it to replace my treasured 1969 Precesion bass which I sold to enable me to buy a digital recorder. The JR feels and plays better than my old Fender! The neck is glorious. I've since bought a brand new Fender Mexican Jazz which is poor in comparison. Ugly fat neck, weedy hardware etc. Its going on Ebay shortly. The JR arrived direct from the factory in Italy (via the only UK distributor) in a cardboard box! It was 6 months before I needed to adjust the set-up and that was only a tweak. Like everyone else who has bought a Jim Reed guitar, I just don't know how they do it for the money. get one (or more) while you can. Lewis
