As I think about this bass more and more, I've realized that I'd LOVE to take you up on that trade deal, Chef, but my wife would kill me if I brought home another bass!  She already refers to my Stingray as my mistress... Haha!
If you're still interested in my cab when this beautiful bass sells, let me know!  |

Kinda hard to tell with all the glorious candy apple red paint on it!
It's light, resonant, and sustains well tho.

Never seen any Squire P's with basswood. My Ibanez GSR190 fretless is Agathis and sustains for days, is light and resonates well. The Badasss bridge I have on it does even more wonders...

|  | Johnny and Joe | | Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: Chicago | | Thanks for the info on the body, guys. I'm going to "J" my trusty old Ibanez P-bass copy, it needs more playing time.
I like Fralins a lot, but I'd keep the QPs on this bad boy--a pimped-out bass should have a pimped-out sound, IMO.
Bump for a good deal.
