….Jazz Bass / Thunderbird ???
You mean JazzBird Bass !!
This vintage Greco had a lifetime of play and both original pickups were completely dead and ready for the bin or a complete rewind. So why not have some fun! It has been modified and transformed into a guitar that has a Jazz bass feel and playability, but with the THUNDEROUS low ends and frequency response of a Gibson Thunderbird!!!
Read below for full details and upgrades…
1973, Made In Japan
(Dated from original pickups)
3 Tone Sunburst, three ply tortoise shell pickguard
This is a very early example of a Greco Jazz Bass. It is the JB-420 model, pre serial number, and sports the “Gneco” only headstock logo with chrome truss rod cover.
20” radius , making it an incredibly flat and super-fast neck to play
Standard 34” scale, traditional “C” grip/profile
Maple neck and rosewood fret board
Pearl block neck inlays with neck binding
NOW THE FUN PARTS…
It has an original set of pickups from a 1995 Gibson Thunderbird
These TB pickups are hum-cancelling, ceramic magnet, humbuckers. They are wax potted and epoxy filled. All round they have a BIG bass tone, with full frequency response, and a VERY heavy-bottom end.
The following upgrades have also been made using only the best high end parts
-CTS 250k volume and tone pots
-Switchcraft input jack
-22 gauge, waxed braided, vintage cloth wiring
-Sprague .047mfd orange drop tone capacitor
-All cavities, pickguard copper shielded
Full copper shielding has been installed for good measure, making this bass DEAD SILENT!
Even at high amp volumes it is 99% buzz and hum free, perfect and consistent grounding throughout the wiring
This bass is beautiful on the inside, mean on the outside, a down right tone MOSTER, with a 44year old vintage pedigree.
