franzbassist Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I'm sure the Hot Rod was a short-lived production model? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 This looks like 2008-11 'latest model' MIA Standard Precision which has been modded to take a J pickup. However, its done really nicely and the price isn't too bad given the new price of an American Standard P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wateroftyne Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Hmmm... It looks really like a modded MIA that Warwickhunt used to own (and Bottomendian before that, I think)... I really like the newer P's and J's. They look solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They look solid.[/quote] IIRC Warwickhunt's had a bit of the pickguard filed/cut away (near the '70s placed J p/u), presumably so that fingers or thumb didn't get wedged between p/u and pickguard. This doesn't appear to be the same, but it could just be the way the pictures have come out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiOgon Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I'm sure I've seen that before - recently, it stands out because of the way the burst 'fits' up onto the upper horn - which I find a little strange looking Cheerz, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warwickhunt Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 (edited) [quote name='wateroftyne' post='1373401' date='Sep 14 2011, 04:46 PM']Hmmm...

They look solid.[/quote] It does 'look' like my old one but it isn't as that resides with my keyboard player. Oh and Bottomendian did own it... but I had it before and after him! Oddly enough I advertised that bass on here and I got virtually no interest (I sold it for a LOT less than The Gallery bass) despite the pup installation being done at The Gallery and the bass having Nordstrands in it. If the bass had been a 1/2-1lb lighter I'd have most certainly kept it. Oh and well remembered about the pickguard cut-away Clarky.
