Jazz Upright Bass Featuring Ed Friedland (DVD)

Fender '75 Jazz Bass (American)

Advantages: Build quality, looks, sound
Disadvantages: Nothing

I bought the Fender '75 Jazz Bass to upgrade from the basic Yahama BB404 I bought when I started to play. I've always loved Fender Jazz basses, and this one in particular is a great size and weight, and just looks beautiful (although I haven't used the pickup guard or bridge plate shown in the photo). Compared to my Yahama bass, the Fender is much more substantial in terms of weight and construction, and the sound is much warmer and richer. This guitar holds it's tuning very well, after a heavy practice session it's still using very close to being in perfect tune, but I do recommend using an inline tuner to check every now and again. Tuning can also slip a little when there are big temperature variations, but this happens with all guitars to the best of my knowledge. The neck is quite thin (a Fender Jazz feature) so it's nice ...

My Little Pony DVD - Mini features DVD

Advantages: cute songs, enjoyable two part DVD
Disadvantages: graphics slightly basic

My Little Ponies are back in force and 2005 saw the release of the entire collection of My Little Pony DVDs from Hasbro.

A bit like pokemon, but with added glitter. My niece adores my little pony and thought the world of me when I unveild the collection.

Review of My Little Pony - Mini Features (DVD)

Fender standard jazz!

Advantages: Very versatile, excellent quality
Disadvantages: More expensive than the standard precision

guitar store will fix this if you can't do it yourself. Again like most fenders there is hardlty any difference between american and mexican guitars. I tried both and seemed a waste to spend double the amount when there was not much difference. It is a lot better than the squire bass though. I used to own a fender standard precision bass but the jazz completely beats that, being a lot more versatile and easier to play i prefer it, but still make sure you try both out! Mine is midnight wine with white pickguard, rosewood neck, and it is lovely, so give it a go and see what you think! ...
