Musicman20 Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 Love these new P basses. Bridges are excellent. Quote
LiamPodmore Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 That would look twice as lovely with a maple board IMO, but that is one gorgeous finish. Liam Quote
Old Horse Murphy Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 That's gorgeous Dan. I think it's your best one yet Quote

[/quote] Build quality and finish is excellent, nice tight neck pocket and set up was great out of the box. I adjusted the action a smidge and got it really low with no buzzing! Well pleased Quote

After my bad experience trying to buy a second hand bass I'm itching to get something to replace it and a maple board 2012 P bass is on the cards...to match my 2009 Rosewood. Quote

You can get a 2012 Am Std for just over a grand or under a grand for certain finishes Quote

I have a local store doing the same thing...give or take a few quid...its under £1k for the White/Tort/Maple 2012 model which is the one I'm after. Thomann prices are really good at the moment but Id rather ask a UK store to match. Quote
spongebob Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 (edited) That looks lovely, congrats on a wonderful looking bass! Just checked out Thomann - crazy prices! American Jazz standard for under £900! Edited August 3, 2012 by spongebob Quote
