Mr. Foxen Posted July 17, 2010 Posted July 17, 2010 It's a Yamaha P bass, think with jazzier neck, not much in common with the Sheehan basses. Probably a nice enough instrument, but not anything exciting. Quote
Kongo Posted July 17, 2010 Posted July 17, 2010 Indeed, it's the one thats furthest removed from the actual Sheehan model, the Special is more closer, but both have a Jazz neck so for those that like the thick P-bass neck on the full blown model won't like it. However, lookin at the colour those pups can only be DiMarzio so the sound should be great, and the controls are WAY away from obstruction. Quote

If your lookin for a Jazz bass then this ain't for you, the neck yes but the tone, no. It'll give that classic meat and potatoes tone with a bit more kick thanks to the pups in it. Worth gettin if you want a P-bass tho. Certainly is unusual. Edited July 18, 2010 by Kongo Quote
