Sent you two PMs and it looks like they were delivered. Is this not for sale anymore? |

Still available. Make a fair offer and it could be yours. I'm open to trades, looking for an electric guitar. |

Chiming in to say I looked at this bass earlier this year and was impressed by the build. I did not play the bass as I was not looking for a P at the time; I was mainly interested in the MK neck as I had never seen one. The feel/finish is superb if you want that smooth, worn-in feel. The nitro work overall (body & neck) simply gives it that vibe I like. And it's not just a visual vibe but tactile one. And of course just a personal preference thing not necessarily better like mayo vs. mustard blah blah... |

Thanks for the kind words. I agree, it's got a great feel to it. I'm amazed Fender doesn't really do anything like this in lefty at a reasonable price point. |

When I had this bass done for me, I was very specific as to what I wanted sound and feel wise, but aesthetics as well. Ed Beaver takes care of all of my basses as well as any custom builds, set ups..etc. He primarily did all of the set up work, fret dressing/leveling, electronics..etc on this particular bass. Glad you're happy with it. Even if it was for a little while. Good luck with the sale. |

Is tonally the J.B. pickup a "vintage style" one (like SD SPB1) or an "aggressive output" one (like Di Marzios) ? M |

Sounds vintage to me. Very versatile (for a P-bass)--fits in a lot of different settings. Put flats on this thing and it sounds like perfection! |

This sounded too good to pass up, so I bought it! Just waiting to see the shipping confirmation! |

My very first bass was a 1974 P-Bass, and I've got to tell ya, I was under-whelmed by it... heavy, neck dive, non-descript tone... although if I still owned it, I'd have a "classic tone-monster" worth two-grand! I'm hoping this bass will be what most P-Basses are supposed to be, especially in the tone department.... Can't wait to "wring it out!" By the way, this is bass #20, so it's time to "thin the herd".... a term that I think is over done! |

The bass came in the mail today, and was still in tune! Feels good, although I'll probably lower the action just a bit... played it through my little Roland Cube Amp, and the g-string sounds great with no dead spots. Drop-D tuner works well. and now I can fool people into thinking I have a Fender.... Will have to play it through my regular amp/cab set-up to get the full sound effect, but I like it so far.... One thing though sgilder, where's my Fodera strings? Just kidding of course... thanks again, and I always like having double-gig bags... I have three of them now! Aloha.... Ian |

Thought I'd update my post... I played this at a gig last night with my band, it was comfortable the minute I started playing it! I haven't enjoyed playing a 4-string in years, but I had a great time with this bass last night! Sounded great, neck seems to be a little wider than a stock jazz-bass neck, but not as chunky as a P, so it was easy to play... Very happy I bought this bass! OK, that's enough exclamation points! |
