AndyTravis Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Bit of a weird one. Recently posted about putting this together… Then, in a fit of “oooh look” I bought an MIJ Precision body and all associated bits. It’s black. This blocks and bound neck, with a white guard would be like a Geddy Lee precision…and that strikes me as verrrryy cool. And the p/JJ setup is beautiful on this, but I’ve already got similar sounds with the Yamaha BB… Do I flog the blacktop body and make a Geddy Pee? I’m not playing with a band currently so I’m not losing out. Might do a mock up tomorrow. or tonight…see if the gin flows. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyTravis Posted January 21, 2023 Author Share Posted January 21, 2023 Nice MIJ body, super clean routing; and wears its age well - mid 90’s - is that right @alexjbassist? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - serial number suggested mid 90s.... Played but nicely looked after condition I thought? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - it looks good for 25-30 years old. Less scars than I accrued by that age anyway 🤭 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maude Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 I preferred the white body with mint guard to be honest. 🙊 But snot mine is it. 😎👍 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted January 21, 2023 Author Share Posted January 21, 2023 Hmmm. no rash decisions yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maude Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 But I do have an irrational fear of black P's with white guards. It comes from every cheap, nasty catalogue bass being black and white when I were a lad. That's why I bought a black and white Attitude 2! 😄 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmo Valdemar Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Geddy Pee definitely - mainly because it hasn't got that massive pickup by the bridge 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baloney Balderdash Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 (edited) I am with the crowd who prefer the white one with mint pickguard and dual J pickup at the bridge. How is that dual J wired by the way, parallel or series? Edited January 22, 2023 by Baloney Balderdash 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is that dual J wired by the way, parallel or series? I’m not 100% sure as I didn’t mess with factory wiring on it for the bridge pickup, just swapped the neck HB for a Fender player P pickup. Sounds fuller when neck is soloed now. and both together is lovely. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
