40th Anniversary Vintage Squier P. NBD.

Good decision.  I had one of these in White Blonde (or more like light Pink in my eyes!) and was impressed with the overall finish.  The deep tone from the pickup was different to a ‘normal’ P - I liked that too.  Enjoy!

Hi folks ... a very interesting thread .. I  also bought one recently and have returned for pretty much the same reasons as Highfox . If the finish was a  quite a bit better I'd of been very happy.

Donnyboy’s was certainly awful. If buyers keep turning these there will a sudden burst of heavily discounted B grade basses coming on the market.

That is a sorry sight.....

I would have done the same Donnyboy, quite a shame really as the neck looks really nice

Yes, I was gutted when I got it out the box, I tried to convince myself to warm to it, but couldn't. I had a bit of a plonk and it did sound and feel good though.

Funny, I can return it but their guitar experts said the colour mismatch is an intentional finish and can't guarantee me an even finish

 

Might try one swap to see if I can get lucky.

It looks clouded to me in the photos. Like they used a dirty gun after not cleaning out some colour.

Wheres the grain gone?
