BrettM Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Hi FSW I have a 2002 '62 RI which I absolutely love playing. The neck is like a baseball bat compared to the original '67 that I have but the playability and the staple p/ups more than make up for that. Did the transaction via North Coast Music Feb 2002 and he organised for me to personally pick one out at Boosey in LA when my band was over there in July 2002. I was then led out into the factory where it was set up for me by Mike.....a great experience and an AWESOME sounding bass!!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
So Long Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I have a Jay Turser Beatle bass, and I've tried the new Hofner. They're about the same quality... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
