JamesBass Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 (edited) So Fender have released a Cabronita P bass and I gotta say it looks lovely! I'm eagerly awaiting finding one to have a little play on! Anyone else taken by the Cabronita style? http://youtu.be/KH9u9aOOiNM Edited April 13, 2013 by JamesBass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubis Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Rosewood fretboard and trans blonde finish? Yes please! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jono Bolton Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 This came up on my instagram feed yesterday, it's not bad but I think the high mass bridge looks awfully out of character from the rest of the bass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lozz196 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Not that fussed by the looks, nothing really new there, but I love the sounds on that clip. And they`re £474 retail at present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cocco Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 I like it too, wouldn't buy it blind though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_bass5 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Horrible looking bass IMO, but I do like the tone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yepmop Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 I actually quite like it, especially the tone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cocco Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Yup, I want it. I definitely want it. I'd be all over trading the pickup out for a TV Jones Thundertron though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Apple Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I do like them, that's why I had this built... Here's the build thread if you are interested..

Cosmo Valdemar Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I'm sure that clip was a lot longer yesterday.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Apple Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Yesterday I'd not taken in how wrong the bridge looks. It's like they've made something really cool, then drawn a cock on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesBass Posted April 14, 2013 Author Share Posted April 14, 2013 Gotta agree with most people in here, not a fan of that bridge, so if I brought one I'd change that. I'd personally love a slab bodied olympic white with a tort pickguard and I'd want the other style head stock. Billy your custom is absolutely lovely! Looks beautiful!

lou24d53 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Not normally a fan of red basses, but really liking the look of the CAR as well. However ditto the bridge comments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warwickhunt Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Is the slight fuzz/distortion a characteristic of the pup or is it the recording/amp used? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
