Just got my classic Jerry Jones copperburst Longhorn. He's making his basses in lefty's again! Honestly, I don't know why I bothered w/ the Dano reissues. This thing absolutely rocks. Light as a feather and THUNDERS. Very sweet neck. He recessed the bridge into the body- very classy.
I've been Jonesing for a Longhorn ever since i saw (and heard) my classmate and bass teacher in high school , Mario Cipollina (shameless name drop) playing a Danelectro one in his band "Soundhole" in high school. Jeeez, it only took 37 years.
My wife's out of town w/ the camera. I'll take a pic when she gets back.
Bottom line is these Jerry Jones are great basses.

PJ, I knew this news would make you happy. Honestly, Jerry's longhorn is so much better than the 1990's reissue in every way- tone, neck ,feel, sound of the pickups, everything. Paint job more authentic. It's even lighter ( just under 6 lbs ).
A bass the size of a Tele that plays so large. I'm in love. Got a great deal from Indoor Storm too.
