Jet has been around since 2001, but I got a new Nikon 50mm 1.8G prime lense that I am testing.  I forgot how sharp the images can be coming out of a prime lens.
 

 
 
 
 

That's a Rickenbacker isn't it?
They always had an unique sound!
Well,  a Rickenbacker bass guitar anyway.
Don't seem to see them as often anymore.
 
Fender brains, Fender strains, make up something I guess, call it a song, play it with a Rickenbacker.

 
 

Very nice shots and subject Mike.

Spacealf, Rick guitars do have a very distinct tone to them; a sound all heir own. Love the 12 string guitar jangle you get from a Rick.

The bass has a distinct sound as well, but different from what most think. Most people think that it has a very trebly sound to it based on how Chris Squire went out of his way to get that trebly tone. In actuality, it has a distinctive growl that comes from the bridge pick up and is perfect for Rock; especially pronounced with round wound strings. The Rick bass has a very solid punchy bottom end as well and can get a variety of tones based on your touch and pickup selection. I have La Bella Flats on it right now and I am definitely getting that McCartney thumpy tone that you associate with his playing. The bass is also known for its outstanding sustain. The tone I am getting right now sounds exactly like stuff off the Abby Road album, think Come Together or Something as an example.

Very nice. 

 
Nice bass Mike, and some cracking shots

Very, very nice!!

Jet?

ONE of my favorite basses, if i could afford to get one now, i would.
