The representative symbol of me, my '78 Jazzo now happily residing at casa Fredo for the time-being. Fully retired from the ultracollection, and who will own it next remains to be seen.

66 dots & binding, lake placid blue w/matching headstock owned by Klaus Flouride and used for all of the DK stuff. Other than the stickers it could hardly be improved.

That's the same year and features (colour, D&B) as the DK one.

DK one is about a million times nicer looking. I really dislike the pickup covers.

Also, I've watched that video about five times today. Jaco's tone was amazing.

Here's a website I found today with loads of transcriptions of Jaco, Weather Report, and other Jazz-fusion stuff, as well as magazine articles and such. A great resource.
