I just need 2 flat top chrome knobs and a threaded bridge saddle and it’s done, I can’t put it down 🙂 I am massively favouring my P’s at the moment that is until the next build! Looks great and a great combo - you could leave it no knobs?! Edited February 16, 2020 by Cuzzie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FinnDave Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 18 hours ago, B-Mac said: Pic player? Tort too!!! 🙂 Yep, pick and flats. Had to witch to playing with a pick after an accident left me unable to use my right hand fingers properly. Pick and flats give a really authentic 60s sound, especially with a Jazz bass (which was still in its gig bag as the guitarist loves my Precision!). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rze99 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Not surprising but not very open. Lots of guitarists expect a Precision type sound to play off 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deedee Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Here's my recently acquired Elite P sporting its new black scratchplate. Looks far better than the stock pearl IMHO. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eneade Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Looks super clean for a Bravewood. He usually does a lot more Relic work. How did you get that one ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walshy Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Two just finished a few weeks ago and painted and fettled by the brilliant David Wilson. Both sublime, both different and both keepers despite the amount of P basses I have 💙 Status neck stealth is a beauty but the Lake Placid Blue is epic 😍 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danbowskill Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Many P's have come and gone, mex, jap, USA...... But my modded Matt freeman bass will never go, oi love it 😘. The neck profile on these are spot on. gotoh Bridge and tuners, kiorgan loom and pots and a vintage tonerider pup. I've Lightly sanded the neck to a satin feel, engraved stained wood scratch gaurd, a cheeky f neck plate and 70s logo.100%the best p I've had in my arsenal, thumps and plays like a dream. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigthumb Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 This is my recently acquired CIJ '57 reissue with mods. Firstly the pickups are new US Fender vintage and a KiOgon loom. The scratch plate is a 62 reissue Fender and strung with TI flats. The bass came to me in not too great shape. Terrible setup and input jack knackered. Underneath the pick guard the pickup cavity has been hacked to I can only presume take a different pickup. Needless to say I paid a 'suitable' price for the bass. So I replaced the electrics and the white single ply guard with the tort one pictured here which IMO looks 100% better. The Ashtrays and tug bar are borrowed from my '77 Precision. The body colour is either a very off white or a pale yellow colour, the (crappy) pics don't really capture this but it really dose look wonderful in the flesh. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigthumb Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Another recent(ish) purchase from here is my '95 US Precision. Just a fabulous bass, love it. I replaced the factory white scratch plate with a red tort one bought off ebay. Its a cheap as chips one from China which fits perfectly and looks pretty darn good to me. The body colour is a gorgeous off white, the rosewood board is lovely and dark making this my prefect Pbass colour combination. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
