Waddycall Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 After months of researching smaller bodied basses and nearly buying one or two I found myself trying out a Mexican precision in a shop a couple of days ago. It was nowhere near as big, cumbersome, heavy, thick necked or dull sounding as I remember them being when I bought my ibanez a year or so ago. Anyway I've ended up with a black and maple Mexican p. Not being a fan of white pick guards I've swapped for a dark tortoiseshell. Very happy with it especially the tone, something my ibanez can't do. Cheers, Pete Quote
alyctes Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 I used not to like tort, but I'm coming round, at least to the darker variety. It looks nice Quote
gary mac Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Splendid looker, welcome to the world of the P Quote
Lozz196 Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Black, tort, maple, on a P-bass - awesome. Congrats, the new Mex Fenders are great. Quote
Subbeh Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 What a great colour scheme that is, love black and tort and with the maple board that is a great looking bass. Congrats! Quote
Waddycall Posted October 11, 2015 Author Posted October 11, 2015 Thanks chaps. I was torn between black and dark tort but very happy how it turned out. I'm thinking about cream pickup covers if they're available but maybe that would be a step too far. I'm sure everyone knows what a black and white p bass looks like but here it is pre swap - Quote
cocco Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 That looks lovely, I don't like white pick guards either, I'd have gone black for the JJ Burnel look Quote
