1970s Ibanez Jazz Bass complete Overhaul: From Lawsuit Model to Modern Marvel!

Witness the transformation of a vintage 1970s Ibanez Jazz Bass copy, famously listed in the 1972 Ibanez catalog as "Model 2376" and known as the "Lawsuit Model." This bass, rich with decades of personal history, studio sessions, and live performances, undergoes a complete overhaul by the PIMPMEISTER team!
✨ Before the Overhaul:
This Japanese-made instrument arrived with a misaligned neck, causing the G-string to slip, along with an incredibly heavy plywood body veneered with faux wood grain and thick lacquer. Despite these flaws, the bass produced an "incredible sound."
🔧 The Pimp List:
New "Les Paul-Nitro-Gold" lacquer finish for the body.
Custom pearl pickguard to complement the pearl block inlays.
Straightened neck with a smooth Tung Oil finish.
Hipshot tuners with a D-Tuner addition.
EAST J-RETRO DELUXE preamp installation with a side jack routing.
Noise elimination with copper foil grounding and shielding.
🎸 The Result:
A stunningly revamped bass that retains its soulful character but feels brand new, ready to dazzle on any stage or in any studio!
