No, it isn't. It's Todd's own modified 2000 series bass. Neat!

A great photo Todd. The backdrop is none too shabby either.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

Woody, it started as a Jetglow 2030. I just built a new maple body and pickguards, switched the chrome Schaller bridge for a black one and then transferred the neck and electronics over. It would look cooler if I'd put toasters on it, but it sounds so good that I really don't want to mess with the pickups.

John, it doesn't fit. I think you need a bigger size. I, on the other hand, am a fairly small guy, and being the youngest in a large family, have no aversion to hand-me-downs.

Yep, more of a Green Boy now, quickly becoming a Yellow Boy where the bass and various parts of my body meet.
