£29.99 from RB Pillans (earlpilanz) on EBay - tons of colour options - took 2/3 weeks as made to order which is good https://www.ebay.co.uk/str/earlpilanz

I’m loving it - works for me

Feels like I’ve had this bass for a long time. Total keeper for the money - it’s quite dark sounding which I love - might try half-rounds on this instead of the la Bellas eventually

Yes it’s how a bass should feel - I’m doing a low key gig tonight and am thinking of taking it instead of the Starfire to try it at a gig

Can we get a GAS button? 😂

Not passive tho

Been sat playing mine all evening- just feels great - I keep looking for faults but just finding more tone - the mids are like a P on steroids

Rehearsed with it last night - yep does the job - loving the neck - might end up with groundwounds to up the bite - but thumpy goodness for sure

Got this today - I’ve been bass-curious about these since launch but was bit meh about colours. Anyways - I just noticed they’ve gone and put out my fave p combination- rosewood board, natural body with that neck. So instant trigger pull after an hour watching reviews. Now I see what the fuss is about. All necks should feel like this outta the box. Sweet and chunky but not baseball bat, smooth no sticky gloss pickups growl and seem pretty hot - need to check spec - body contour is sexy and bridge seems solid as are the heavy control knobs. Tuners are ok but probably wouldn’t swap them I wouldn’t say it’s a Fender killer - the Am Std I just sold was better but this reminds me if the 2018ish MIM FSR PB70 Reussue I had but with no sticky neck, better pups and half the price when you add £55 for la bellas to the £419 outlay If you’re looking for a P back up - I’d recommend this. Not had out loud yet but it’s a great deal - it feels much more premium than it’s price

I try to explain why I had to buy but it’s pearls before swine 😁

I spend a silly amount of time looking at basses I’ll never get - just out of interest - also do you get your mates taking the mick about the amount of basses bought and sold. They don’t know GAS IS REAL! 😂

I know the exchange rate isn’t great but $1299 is £1087ish Fender have been doing this in UK for a few years now seeing same £ and $ price which is another rip off unless it’s Brexit related import duty

The Aria back up I got the neck wasn’t screwed in properly- in fact had to tighten all screws in bridge too but for £395 wasn’t expecting what I’d expect from fender for £1200+

Fender sent that one for free to Bully Thakidd to review - you’d think they’d check before sending for review

Lobster savages this - hope Fender listen

Just seen one for resale already in Facebook Marketplace - yellow with tapes - also seen people with same problems as Lobster found. Still tempting tho - will resist as want to put Guild Bisonic on my Aria DMB

Nice!

Think it’s my turn to be in them 🤣

Cool bass and good knowledge- I knew I’d seen that font before - I like it

One day i'd love one of these - looks so cool Si
