Title says it all! Any brand- Fender, Sadowsky, Alleva-Coppolo, Valenti, Nordstrand, home-brew, etc.
I'm a P-Bass man, and I'm finding more and more that I like the low B. I'm looking for GAS-inducing pics of traditional-bodied Precision Basses, but all 5-string Precision-types are welcome!
(NOTE: Not a club; just wanted some pics to torture myself with!)

I got that bass years ago and that photo was taken not long after I had it. Since then I upgraded the preamp to an Aguilar OBP3.
It's not a bass that blows you away but it is more than capable of handling ANY gig I can think of.

I wasn't aware SD made Basslines for a 5 string P. Is this a custom order or do those basses made with extremely tight spacing?

IIRC.

34" 19mm passive P.
Doesn't look like a P, Doesn't feel like a P, but it sure does sound like a P.
Please excuse the bad cellphone photo.
