A cool bass but not an SD Curlee. The pickup does look like a DiMarzio with the hex pole pieces so should sound good, although it is in a very different place to a Curlee. Being further forwards it should have a deeper tone to it than a Curlee, which is better or worse depending on your preference.

It looks like someone thought they'd make it a 34" without considering the frets. D'oh! 😁

Entwistle neo (PBXN?) is IMO very similar to an SD Quarter Pound but with slightly more mids/less scoop, which, again IMO, makes it better. A very good hot P pickup.

Well in that case that's probably an expensive itch that doesn't need scratching. I've already got a 374a in (IMO gorgeous) dark coffee burst that don't intend to sell, and the jump up to a P34 probably isn't worth the outlay, unless I got rid of the 374. While the Japanese build is likely to be exceptional, the Indonesians are none to shabby. Talking of cases, the standard gigbags with the 374 is very high quality for the price of bass. My BBPH came with the same bag. Good luck with the P34 👍

I've not tried a P34, but I'd imagine if you liked the feel of the 734 and the passive tone then you'll like the P34. Which colour have you gone for? If a creams one came up at the right price I'd struggle not to buy it. As an aside, I've read that the pickups in the the 734 are the same ones that are in the P34. Does anyone know if this is true?

Their colour options are, at best, odd. I absolutely love the metallic orange but I think it's only available on the 414.

It appears the BB734, and presumably 735, is available in the classic BB red and green. I still love the coffee burst (genuinely better in the flesh than most promo pics) but that green is rather tasty.

If I was actually after a longscale Longhorn then I think the asking price is a very fair price for this. If an offer of £250 got it then I'd snap it up, if I was really looking for one. Am I helping? No? 😂

I was also tempted to put an offer in, but I'll assume my offer would be lower than yours (as I really don't need another bass) so yours being declined has relived me too. 😁

I was going to say the Mania VTB 4BS was very 'Peavey' but with that shape headstock, but the machine heads are in the wrong orientation.

I'm assuming that's a DiMarzio Model P pickup as well.
