Yer this is the Adam Clayton bass. I know there has been a lot of bashing about that signature bass. I didn't buy because I'm a fan of U2. This bass has everything I would have asked from Fender CS. A jazz neck on a Precision, Abigail Yberra handwound pick-ups, quatersaw maple neck, abalone inlays, matching headstock, all vintage hardware. The sound is amazing and forget about the list price, the street price is way lower.

I know what you mean about the "bashing". I have the 2011 closet classic precision pro from the cs, because it has all the features that suit me. It attracts a love or hate reaction. So what right?
Cheers

I'm impressed with the Xotic P-Bass. Great build and superb tones-passive or active; old-school or modern.
Check 'em! |

| | | | 3 tone burst (amber, cherry, black) with tort pickguard with rosewood fingerboard is my favorite. I own/play my second favorite; butterscotch blonde with black pickguard and rosewood fingerboard. In either case, the 1957 body/neck design. |

| | | | A list of my favourites in no particular order:
* '57 - Sunburst, Anodized, Maple...
* Sting's '53
* Pino's FR, Tort, R/W
* Glenn Hughes' CAR, White, Maple. Road Worn from being worn on the road. Love that one.
* Black, B/W/B, Maple. My first P was just this because JJ Burnel had one.
* The new Honeyburst hand rubbed, Parchment, Maple. It's a Guitar Center only American Special. Nice.
* Current G.A.S., and hopefully a new year purchase: 3TS American Standard, Parchment, Maple. However, I'm not seeing a Parchment pickguard available as standard. Maybe I'll trade someone here for the tort that seems standard. |

| | | | I think the Jamerson family should seriously take a look at that bass on an earlier page that's for sale. It's a little uncanny...Especially the chip on the pickguard. Might just be the Funk Machine. |
