spectoremg Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 I came across this by accident (fate?). The offenders are Samick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, but I quite like the curtains! 😉 That headstock is kinda post-pointy, isn't it? Quite acceptable if the bass is good.

CamdenRob Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Beautiful headstock... 😕 To be honest though I’m so completely and utterly conditioned to expect to see a Fender headstock with a P bass I always think anything else looks weird. Not so with J basses for some reason. Just the P bass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeftyJ Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Same! Even though there's absolutely nothing wrong with it. I guess it helps that it's black, it gives the bass a slightly more modern appeal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolo Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Very late-90s correct! Samick made so much decent gear at affordable prices. I still have three different power amps in the attic/music room. Good stuff! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Other than it’s a P bass, what’s the problem? 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baloney Balderdash Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 (edited) The bass is a bit boring, look like a standard P pass pretty much, and I have slight aversion for tortoise pickguards, but I wouldn't call it ugly by any means. I also prefer headstocks with the tuners balanced on each side, instead of in a long row, but other than that I actually think it looks truly beautiful, maybe it's a bit odd for exactly that kind of bass, but at least in it self it look great, whereas the rest of the bass just kind of looks mediocre.

Krysbass Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Subjective of course; but to these eyes this is the bass equivalent of a car composed of the front end of a Ferrari grafted onto a Ford model T.😲 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfoundfreedom Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 The Fender P bass has the ugliest headstock in the world. (YMMV) I'd take that over a Fender any day. Although sadly it still has the bland Fender style body. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
