@edthewave Well, Jeff Berlin is one of my absolute top bass players. He is a legend of course. You only have to listen to his incredible solo on "Water on the Brain" by Allan Holdsworth (Road Games album) to get it. But I find him difficult to compare to Pastorius, because their styles are really different. Pastorius and Willis have got that smooth fretless sound; Berlin never played fretless. They just sound different, although Berlin is a real technical wizard on the fretted bass.

@Listendudeok You know who REALLY surpassed Jaco? Jeff Berlin. Perhaps the most technically proficient player of the Jazz-Fusion genre, perhaps of any genre!

40 prototypes? I assume Gary can hear differences that any other human could... what a pain in the ass for mr bartolini... "darling...is the fat guy on the phone again.."

@csmorgan All Right you don't have to be a smartass, i know i mispelled it but i was only by accident.

@paul44miles good way to be proficient as you could not even spell it

Sean Malone uses the Ibanez GWB1, the first one with ebony fretboard.

@lowlevelshighstakes According to my ears, mind and my experience as a bass player, oh yes. I got everything by Pastorius, bootlegs etc., but now real honestly, with all respect for this legend and icon, cause there was bass before and after Pastorius, Jaco went limited quite rapidly. If you know his playing really well, you will notice Pastorious began repeating the same patterns over and over again. I began to copy himself pretty quickly. Willis has got a much wider horizon in impro etc.

Amazing bass player. A true innovator on the bass, and a musician who's focused on musical profiency.

If there were 40+ prototypes, I get the sense that's a pretty important component, so why not use it for the GWB35?
