    Default Bass Hot or Not?



    The Manson John Paul Jones E-Bass model is a replica of the bass that Hugh Manson made in the early 90s and has become John's first call four-string ever since. Featuring a maple through-neck construction, figured maple top, Aged Cherry Sunburst high gloss lacquer, ebony fingerboard, EMG pickups and active circuit, Hipshot D-Tuner, Schaller machineheads and Badass bridge, the specs reflect exactly the current upgraded hardware of the bass John is currently using on tour with Them Crooked Vultures.

    Priced at a competitive £2099 ($3200, includes high quality gig bag), the bass is currently available exclusively from Mansons Guitar Shop.

    I think it looks pretty hot, especially some other pics I've seen of it.

    I dig it, although it's not "wow" or anything.

    I'd lose the Hipshot, and cut the price down to about $600 though.
    I'm cheap, y'see.

    Eww. That's like the anti-Krashpad bass, right there.

    ...a horribly ugly thing...Im a big JPJ fan too...also, for that price, you'd think they could throw a case in, as opposed to a gig bag...
