    I guess I don’t want to limit the tone too much as I play a bit of funk with my fingers, some thumb-style playing like Sting would do, using flatwounds, but also like to get that punk tone using a plectrum in the studio. i do have a few basses but I have seriously cut right down to one short-scale PJ configuration, the medium scale precision and a Kala U bass.

    Great colour combo

    I just picked up a 32” medium scale P bass and want to beef up the sound. Hoping that a replacement pup is straightforward and will fit ok, I am unsure which sort of pickup to go for. The Geezer Butler passive one with solderless connections is tempting but so is the SD SPB-1 or 3 with the fatter pole pieces. Any fellow Basschatters using any of these and feel like leaving an opinion on tone, value etc.

    Exactly the same as mine. I played it recently with a drummer and horn player at high volume and it held its own no problem. I find if you want a more realistic upright tone, pluck just as the neck joins the body.

    Im a lefty but when I played one of these when they came out I was seriously tempted to use it upside down. Liking the Ampeg micro rig. Used to own one of those.

    That’s a lovely colour combo

    Here’s the anodised one fitted.

    Decided to fit the gold one as it changes the look of the bass depending on the light.

    Yep. The black with tort is pucker

    Great collection you have there. Great offer price too.

    Wish I had kept it really as I had added a gold anodised guard and it looked fab, but sadly I needed the cash to fund another bass.

    Got my pickguards back from Jack’s Instruments. I have a lefty medium scale 32” P bass in vintage white. I couldn’t decide between a tort and a gold anodised one so got both.

    The best Fenders I have played have all been MIJ. I used to have a ‘57 CIJ P bass and it was excellent.

    You are a master builder my friend

    Mine cost £69 delivered. Its a perfect fit. I have a medium scale P bass so is slighlty smaller so needed a custom-made one. If you think about it, someone skilled would prob charge minimum £20 to enlarge the pickup route holes on a shop-bought one anyway.

    I sent my existing white P bass pickguard to Jack’s Instrument Services in Manchester and had a replica brushed gold anodised one made to order. It’s superb. If your existing guard has correct-sized pickup holes that might be a better bet than one from a shop.

    Ibanez Axstar. Never seen a lefty one of these before https://www.zikinf.com/annonces/dispannonce.php?annonce=1517187

    Fender Mustang. Already sold but a bargain for someone. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/134011837266955/
  23. sblueplanet
    Wow. I would have snapped this up also. Absolute bargain.
  24. sblueplanet
    Even if that bass isn’t a geniune Moon then that it is a complete steal.
