TPTroll Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 (edited) Up for sale is a customised P-bass, built by mine own fair hands. It was my main bass, but has fallen out of use and it's too nice to just be a 2nd bass. Alder body, rosewood fretboard with maple neck. Pearloid inlays (not stickers). 3 ply white pearloid pickguard. All stained walnut with a satin nitro finish. Wilkinson pups (was going for a standard trad p-bass sound, which these do really well), brass wilkinson bridge under the cover. As you'll see, I've gone for a rough sort of look, scratches and different depth of stain, just something a bit more interesting than the 'reliced' look. The neck is a jazz profile, thin and very smooth/fast playing. Holds a good low action and stays in tune well. Currently strung with rotosound flatwounds. Add a high level set of pickups, and you've got a brilliant bass. Really enjoyable to play. Obviously have spent a bit of time on this, so not looking to sell unless I get a good price. Based in Herts/London. Edited July 11, 2012 by TPTroll
TPTroll Posted June 13, 2012 Author Posted June 13, 2012 (edited) It's a walnut stain, diluted slightly and then once dried a satin nitro finish. I was going for a Gibson SG Studio/Harrison Rosewood tele look. I'm currently doing a tele in the same colours as this, which I'll have up for sale in a week or so too.

jamie_k11 Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 That's a wicked looking bit of kit!!! Currently looking for a new 410, so not getting a bass. Good luck with the sale however!!
alyctes Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 Very nice looking Sadly I have too many P basses already. It would probably be worth editing your original post to show the price reduction.
TPTroll Posted July 6, 2012 Author Posted July 6, 2012 Bump. I may be open to parting this out too. If anyone wants the loaded body, so everything minus the neck, they can have it for £150 ono inc postage. If I can't sell the whole thing I might use the neck elsewhere, but don't need another P so the body can go. Thanks
TPTroll Posted July 7, 2012 Author Posted July 7, 2012 Ok, do want this to go, so £180 for the bass or £130 for the loaded body. Thanks
