As written above, Matt used his two amp's and his Fender Jazz bass for his recording sessions for ''Pinkerton'' and the Rental's ''[[Return of the Rentals]]'' and the touring for both records.


In 1996, he bought two new instruments. Another Fender Jazz bass, a Fender Mexican Jazz Bass in lake placid blue, to which Karl Koch later remembers later: "He [Matt Sharp] bought a brand new Mexican-made blue Fender Jazz Bass, replaced the neck with a new Telecaster bass Warmoth model, and popped in some new Schecter pickups. This became his backup touring bass, and the black and blue "hybrids" were his two Weezer basses until he left the band."
