how hard is it to get either item?
probably getting a good MIM Jazz
(good as in right for you)

it's probably not to difficult to get a proper Ashdown.
so from an availability perspective get some Jazz

I haven't read the whole thread but there's a beaut Japanese Jazz Bass on TM right now which I know the guy is wanting $1500 for but would probably take $1300 or so. It's a really fantastic bass which has had many parts upgraded, would probably beat a US one at this point.

The P's I tried were very good.... spacing can definitely take a bit of getting used to, especially when moving .... but I found it very comfortable standing up.

Standing up to "P"?

I say the Jazz Bass.

You go through electronics like there's no tomorrow, but a good bass stays with you forever.

Rog said he would be buried with his P
Adrian said if he reworked the body, he literally could be buried with it.

Damn straight!
The P is NEVER for sale.
I've had to very sadly let a few others go to a better place, but never the P.

Friend of mine sleeps with her J. Wonder how her boyfriend feels about that...?

While I'm at it, anybody else got an emotional bond with their bass?
