Karl Koch summarized later ''"Matt then bought a new Jerry Jones hollow body 'Longhorn' bass, in celeste green. Unfortunately, he soon found out that it wasn't useful in live performance. This is when Matt made the trade for the Warmoth neck. This is a Telecaster Bass style neck, but a little different. A similar but not identical model is still made, but this particular one was an early model and made from a very interesting swirly kind of darker wood, that newer ones just don't have. Though the trade recipient got the whole Explorer Hamer for the neck, he was still quoted as saying, 'You're ripping me off!' The neck was that nice! This neck was grafted onto a vintage black Fender Jazz Bass body he got as a gift from Johnny of El Magnifico. Matt got some Schecter pickups and the 'Frankenstein' bass was complete."'' | Karl Koch summarized later ''"Matt then bought a new Jerry Jones hollow body 'Longhorn' bass, in celeste green.
