Had to re-post this due to one VERY uncool TBer's negative posts in the original thread for this bass. Sorry guys.
Check out the beautiful grain on this P. Believe it or not, she's an old 82/83 MIJ Squier that I picked up a few months ago. She came to me with all cavities fully copper shielded (with solder between the copper folds).
I popped in a USA Sadowsky pickup. Oh my she sings. Build quality LITERALLY rivals or exceeds Fender USA basses of that era (and most eras).
The bass absolutely kills. Man the early 80's MIJ stuff is where it's at. Never had a dud from these old MIJ Fenders. Build quality a QA was superb back then.
I'm playing Fender'sque humbucking basses lately (G&L L2000, Musicman Sabre, Bongo, etc). This baby needs some love!. Low action, setup beautifully. Brand new DiAddario rounds on her. Very straight neck and level frets. 1 5/8" nut, 34" scale.     Price Drop to just $599!!!!!!!

Quadz is this one a SQ pre fix, or the JV series, and what does this one weight? |

I've owned two in the past and had to sell them because of cramping
