Bass Neck Precision
How can I tell if I have a jazz bass or a precision bass?
I bought a bass neck and body from a friend and I'm trying to fix it up. How can I tell what kind of bass it is so I can can get the right kind of pickups?
Well, there are lots of way to tell. First, it should say which it is on the headstock.
If it doesn't, look at the body. Jazz basses have the more pointed end as you can see in the lower left of these pictures.

You don't necessarily need to know which it is to buy pickups, though. You should go to your local music shop, try to describe the kind of sound you're after to the workers, show them your bass to see what fits, and they should be able to recommend something to you.
