The Fender Jazz Bass is 50, and it’s time to cellebrate it!
Fender have released a very limited edition of the 50th Anniversary Jazz Bass and we think it might be the best Jazz Bass ever!!
Production is very limited. A few pieces will reach Doctorbass.net soon, but if you want one you’ll need to pre-order it. Please send us an email at info@doctorbassnet with the Subject 50th Anniversary Jazz Bass.
The price is also surprisingly reasonable for such an historical bass: 1999€ + VAT.
Fender have stopped taking orders for this mode. We have 4 ON ORDER. One of them is already on hold, and we are keeping one for the shop, so you THERE’S ONLY 2 LEFT. Once they’re gone, they’re gone. Don’t miss this chance to get an absolutely historical bass.
We also believe this might be the best Jazz Bass ever. Want to know why? Read on:
The latest creation by Marleaux is the SOPRAN, a short scale bass that has been made from scratch to work in Piccolo tuning (one octave above standard)
Introducing this new talent from Itlay: Simone Vignola. Simone is a young bassplayer and singer who has released this video to make himself known in the bass community. Welcome!!
Simone uses Windmill basses.
Using his voice and a Boss RC50 looper, Simone acted as support before The Richard Bona Band, and we must say he did a great job at entertaining the audience before Bona walked on stage. The future looks interesting for this talented player. Good luck from Doctorbass.net, Simone!

Just like every year, as soon as we get into the Musikmesse in Frankfurt, we head for the Marleaux stand to meet Gerald and see what’s new. In this modestly sized booth you’ll find the best basses in the show, and also the best bass players.

Welcome to this thread where you’ll be able to see how 2 amazing custom Overwaterbasses are built for us by Chris May and his team from Carlisle (U.K.)
Last week we attended the Musikmesse in Frankfurt. It was a great chance to see (and try) the latest news and also meet some friends. We have some new stuff coming to the shop, including some additions to our catalogue, just like this one:
We’ll soon reveal what’s under this cover. In case you are not familiar with that logo, we’ll just say that they are basses and amps with an amazing value, perfect in these hard economic times. These are products that come to fill a gap in the market and are designed and manufactured with great care and honesty. One of the best things at this year’s Messe.
As you probably know, we always have some instruments made by Irishluthier Chris Larkin. I believe that Chris is one of the best in his trade, and he is also a good friend a wise guy with a very interesting view on life.
