Love the Vox bass

 

[Any Name You Wish]

I played a real '57 once, and the guy hadn't changed the strings since like '57 so I have no idea how it would really sound, and the action was too low. Just my luck, dangit. They look very cool, but one would be enough for me.

Speaking of Customs, rock around the clock with Frank Beecher's...he's gotta be the first "rock" player to play that "jazz" guitar!
Thanks @MusicJim2

Strings can be changed, action can be raised.

I have never liked the middle position on a custom. I don’t like the sound that much compared to a normal LP and the pickup often gets in the way. They look great, usually are heavy. But there is a reason I have all the other varieties of LP but no 50s custom. Maybe a 2pickup version one day
