SteveXFR Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 I guess this would be the automotive equivalent to my Thunderbird, a Ford Thunderbird. Designed by the same dude and apparently the car was inspiration for the bass. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always think a P is like a Volvo estate too, trusty and like a bit of a boat but always gets the job done. I was also going to pick a Volvo 850 Estate for my Mike Lull P bass, and a Mercedes AMG GT Roadster for my Sadowsky Jazz bass. And Me? Probably closer to a Morris Traveller.

Naigewron Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 German engineering, inspired by the classics but with a very modern approach. Not designed to be a speed demon, just exceptionally comfortable, versatile and will get you where you need to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Small, light coloured, nippy around town I guess (not having driven either). It got me thinking about what car would represent your bass? Is a P bass a lean sports car or a utilitarian people carrier? Is a jazz an SUV or a saloon? Bearing in mind I know very little about cars (and not much more about basses), what bass are you driving? I have a fiat 500 but in red with a soft top. Maybe my bass for it would be headless 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
