danbowskill Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 (edited) I've recently put together this absolute gorgeous P bass.... Neck is 2 weeks old (cost £300), fender Roasted maple. Lovely and straight,clean frets no sharp edges.. Modern C that plays like a dream. Fret board has gloss finish but rear is satin.new black Wilkinson vintage tuners.and black graphtech nut. The neck holes didn't line up perfectly with the body holes, so I filled and re drilled new heel holes.doesnt effect anything about the bass at all..... Just being transparent. Decent northwest G alder p body ( couple of light scratches). New gotoh 201 Bridge, kiorgan wiring harness. Tonerider trp 1 pups (my absolute fave pickups). Fender neck plate. Comes with matt black pick guard and bwb. Fairly new roto's rounds on it This plays and punches like the best of them. Not Heavy, around 9lbs at a guess? Pictures don't sell this bass, it's the best looking bass I've had f sure. But having 2 P's seems silly tbh (my other P will never sell). So if anyone fancies a trade up? Ideally a jazz type bass, ibanez ATK 810/800 anything really that's 4 string non fret less or short scale...... Preferably black/natural and maple neck. Also consider 2u amp.. Gk rb700 etc. Prefer meet up, but postings not outta the question. Better pics later. Edited August 14, 2020 by danbowskill Sold 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldman Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 The re-drilled holes did you put in place metal ‘nuts’ the ones you sink into wood for a more permanent jointing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pajhartley Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 (edited) Fancy a straight trade for a GK RB700 Mark II? With case? See my ad on the Amps & Cabs forum. And I happen to be coming to Torquay either this Saturday or next. Let me know. Edited July 27, 2020 by pajhartley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No... Kinda wish I did. Great idea. The neck is screwed in normal like most basses, it's nice n tight😉 Edited July 27, 2020 by danbowskill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
