I have one of these and it's great! It's nice having one guitar that I don't care about dinging up when I tinker late at night. And hell, one that I can let my kids bang on when they want to join in the fun:

And SOLD! I had to buy this since I'm still waiting on body and neck from Warmoth and I have shows coming up soon.

Your video is what really sold me. Your kids have better technique than I do.

Ha ha. Same here! My only consolation is that it takes them four hands to my two

One thing to note if you want to upgrade the pickups: the bridge pickup is actually sized for a neck-sized jazz pickup. I had to have the opening routed to fit an aftermarket EMG P/J set.

(FWIW, I wasn't crazy about the EMGs and sold them to a board member, so that's a G&L MFD in there now with no bridge pickup (a poor-man's SB-1 ). The MFD P is a drop-in replacement, but a bridge MFD would require further routing.)

Cool that was a good price!

That is good to know, I was not aware of that, and had I ordered the wrong size pup that would've been aggravating. The gigs I have lined up are for 60s Peruvian punk rock, so I'm thinking this bass may not need any upgrades just yet. I have Lollar's here, and however tempted I may be, I'm trying to save those for my parts build.

Interesting. Any recommended listening in this genre?

Fun stuff. Most of the lyrics are gibberish, but if you translate some of the lyrics they're singing about eating chocolate in a mental hospital, and drinking blood from skulls

Cool! I just listened to that whole thing. Did some reading too and it sounds like Lima had quite a scene back in the day. Good stuff.

Well, I guess this wasn't meant to be. I got a tracking number last week, and the package was never scanned. No record of it ever even being picked up in the UPS system. GC had to open a case for a lost package. UPS says the case is resolved, yet the guitar is nowhere to be found. I'm sure I'll get a refund, though.

That's a major drag! Here's another. It's missing the J pickup, but the P is upgraded:

Or you could try one of the cool-looking new Ibanezes. I bet the look would go with your sound. This one a b-stock at a discount:

But if you just want a cheap beater to hold you over:

Another Squier P/J at GC, this time in sunburst:

Never got to try one of those but as far as I've heard it's a good bang for the buck.

I second that: they are pretty good, well-rounded, lovable instruments of world domination.

To my defense (for not keeping them), necks tend to shrink quite a bit when Canadian Winter hits and I grew tired of filling, sanding and truss rod adjusting...

To their defense, I had to do it to pretty much all my basses

How about this one?
$100 bucks.

P only, not PJ

You can chisel out your own cavity on the 70's position!

That's why I'm saying. $100 basses are prime for chiselin'!
