Greetings all, I've decided to move my Mustang bass on. In truth, I bought it on a whim and it's been sat in its gig bag in the spare room for a couple of months. I bought it new from GAK in November and it is in as new (roadworn) condition. I've never even took it out of the house! Comes with everything included that came to me inc unopened black scratch plate. £780 couriered to your door. Not a bargain price I know, but it is as new. Pics to follow later - but it looks like a roadworn JMJ Mustang 👍 Specs (in case you dont know) Body Material - Alder Body Finish - Road Worn® Nitrocellulose Lacquer Neck Material - Maple Neck Finish - Road Worn® Nitrocellulose Lacquer Neck Shape - "C" Shape Scale Length - 30" (762 mm) Fingerboard Material - Rosewood Fingerboard Radius - 9.5" (241 mm) Number of Frets - 19 Fret Size - Medium Jumbo Nut Material - Synthetic Bone Nut Width - 1.625" (41.3 mm) Pickup - Custom Seymour Duncan® Split Single-Coil Mustang Bass® Bridge - 4-Saddle Mustang® Bass Strings-Through-Body Cheers Bonz

Bought one yesterday! Wonderful full tone and (for idiots like me) no confusing multi effects Id never use. So far, so chuffed 👍 PS Canvas artwork courtesy of the kids 😊

..and there's the option to return if not 100% happy. Winner winner chicken dinner.

Which string action ruler can you recommend? Something like this? Cheers

Cheers Japhet

I know Im digging up an old thread here, but I'm quite interested in this combo. To be honest, for my needs the Rumble 40v3 would probably suffice, but there isn't a massive hike in price for the 100 (like £40ish extra)

I really hate to ask this, but... what strings for P bass?

..ooh and thank you @Reggaebass for your very kind offer. I'd feel a bit of a tw*t getting you go to the trouble of going out & posting them to me all for the princely sum of bugger all, but I do appreciate your generosity 👍 -

Well folks if nothing else I've learnt that there is no right answer to the 'what strings for a P bass?' question. I know that there have been some great recommendations and I really appreciate people taking the time to steer this newbie (I imagine if it wasn't for covid I'd see little response as you'd all be out gigging - every cloud and all that ) Anyhooo, I've ordered a cheap & cheerful set of Fender 7250M's in 45-105 gauge (as that's what the bass has been set up in) and Ill see how I get on with them. Once again, really appreciate your comments & views -

It already has 45-105 strings on from the PO and recently had a set up with that gauge so to negate any neck relief shenanigans I'll start there. I'm needing new strings because the A is bust. -

Was thinking that very thing Reggaebass. You read my mind. Cheers -

I hear ya BB, I have to say I'm enjoying The Beatles at the moment as I have done for 40 odd years (I go through periods where I just dont want to hear them for a while - but they are always THE band), Zeppelin, Floyd, Lizzy, Fleetwood Mac, Steely Dan/Fagen etc - to more modern(ish) - Elbow, Radiohead, The 1975. That sorta stuff.
