Thornybank Posted January 22, 2012 Posted January 22, 2012 [i]Well...posted it in Other Stuff' section by mistake...two interests expressed... cheers, guys... anyway... shifting to here...[/i] Facts: ’95 USA Std P with through body stringing, no S1. A solid worker’s P Bass, doing its thang. Truss moves both ways, but no need as neck is straight. Action is how I like, but can shift up or down. Has playing wear – buckle rash, few finish marks but looks well clean from the front. Has some (not heavy) fret wear in the ‘blues zone’. Could maybe use a fret dress to tidy the response above the 14[sup]th[/sup] fret on the A string (like anybody goes there…?) Wee dink on the ‘E edge’ of the board at the 3[sup]rd[/sup] fret. Coupla small ‘dents’ on the back of the neck, don’t show in photos and don’t feel them when playing. White is nicely ivory-ing. Also, there is a line on the back of the neck that you can feel when you play. Opinions: Divided on what the line means – finish crack? Wood crack? Matters? Doesn’t? It is old – pre me and previous owner, hence the ingrained scuzz. It isn’t going anywhere… So… a good used USA Std P Bass but not a prime example. Could maybe use a little work to get it right for you – or not if it makes you happy as-is. All welcome to check it out here in Edinburgh. Or hey! A cheap USA P! On you go….? £300 delivered in an OK gig bag, or £325 in an OK hard case. Aye?
