Truetone PJ Run At Truetone Music, we love Fender Custom Shop Basses.  We know that bass players recognize that this is where some of the world's greatest basses are made.  We also know that they can do more (much more) than recreate the iconic models from the '50's and '60's.  There's an opportunity to create something new, something different.  Often, the desire is to get vintage-styled instruments with modern tweaks and aspects that players love.  There's where we went with this bass: it's modeled after a 1964 Jazz, but with a PJ pickup configuration and a High Mass bridge.  This gives you something truly unique.  It's the first part of a run of PJ basses we cooked up with the Custom Shop.For this '64 Jazz Bass, we went with one of the most coolest looks we could think of - Charcoal Frost Metallic with a Tortoiseshell pickguard.  For the finish package, we went with Closet Classic, with heavy checking to give it a bit more character.  As the name suggests, this creates the appearance of an instrument that was made 50 - 60 years, but was then put away in its case.  You'll see finish checking, some of the glossiness muted, and hardware without the shine.   Where this Jazz bass stands out is the addition of a a Custom Shop 59 - 62 P Bass pickup.  It provides classic P Bass tone, known as "the sound heard around the world".  It's versatile, and can be used in a variety of settings, from old school R&B to punk and everything in between.   A Custom Shop Vintage Jazz bass pickup in the bridge position brings the classic Jazz bass sound.  While Fender has done this on a variety of basses over the years, you rarely, if ever, see it in a traditional setup (typically they have been ultra modern basses with active electronics).  We wanted to go old school, so we kept everything passive.  The goal was to create a bass that could have been but never was in 1964. To further the vintage vibe, we had the finish removed from the back of the neck.  This gives you a
