Is this a case of the annoying android .Heic file extension. Always a good idea to default to a format supported by no one!

I have the Vintera in Seafoam green. It’s a lovely bass. A fair bit of research was done for pickup selection and IMO it sounds as well as looks the part. Personally I think they are a tad expensive when bought new and you would be better buying a good used one.

True dat But I suspect the purists over on the EB forums would probably have me publicly flogged.

I prefer my Stingray Bitsa to the real deal. That said I prefer all my Bitsa basses to their real deal counterparts!

I think it’s a combination of age and work induced RSI. I’ve also always favoured the chunkier side of P’s. My Vintera ‘50s was the ideal profile previously. Another Bitsa is possible but I am trying to wean myself off tinkering and actually learn to play a bit better. A road worn Mendel may well fit the bill and yep I agree with the OP about pickup choice. I would prefer a warmer vintage tone.

I think this is more down to familiarity. I’ve always had a P so swapping to a J just feels awkward. @Aidan63summed it up nicely.

Is this auto correct playing up or a signature model that I am unaware of?

Thanks for the response. I may look at a Bitsa with a Status Jazz neck. Has anyone played a Nate Mendel out of interest?

I have always preferred a P bass but struggle with the chunkier neck these days. I bought a MIJ Fender Aerodyne Jazz a while back and replaced the pickups with Geezer Butler’s. Pretty much everything about this bass is spot on. The neck profile is perfect. It’s a joy to play. The only downsides are I don’t like the shape of a Jazz body. I find them awkward. It’s also too pretty and doesn’t look like it will take much punishment so I’m a bit precious with it. Does anyone know of a P bass with the same neck profile of the Aerodyne? It can be any make and I don’t mind if it’s already roadworn. Cheers.
