I just think it's a bit of a shame they couldn't get a mustang style bridge onto them (even one of the smaller ones), not that the bridges are any better, I think they're just part of the look.
The american performer version does have a mustang bridge with a jazz pickup though. I've got an itch for one of those, but I think I'd need to lose one or two other basses first. Yours is the vintera?

So they do - must have missed that one, they have so many variations out at the moment!
Yes mine's the Vintera, fancied the JMJ as I (controversially for on here) do like a relic finish but couldn't justify the price difference for something that's not going to be my number one bass. Vintera has very similar specs (lollypop tuners, 41mm nut, alder body) for a chunk less. Pick-up sounds decent enough for me, though maybe one day I'll replace it for something else.

Thanks - they're pretty fun to play! I'll probably use it as is for now but when the strings go off, swap them for flats for a bit more thump. The PJ's look good, I just think it's a bit of a shame they couldn't get a mustang style bridge onto them (even one of the smaller ones), not that the bridges are any better, I think they're just part of the look.
Kind of custom; I'm not sure if they're still going but at the time when you ordered you just picked your covering & grill cloth then they made it for you, it wasn't a special order or anything. If you wanted plain black with standard grill it would have been the same process. They're awesome cabs though; they do the mellow/vintage sound really well but then I've also gigged them in metal/hardcore bands too & they sound really aggressive when driven.
