| | | | What is your favourite PJ Fender? ...And why?
I am currently selling a bunch of stuff (pedals, guitar - yes, shoot me!) and plan to acquire a PJ to use it as a companion for my Tony Franklin fretless.
What are your favourite PJs?
Thanks for your input!

It has Hipshot tuners and a Hipshot high mass fine adjust bridge. It has the pickup selector and Series/paralel switch and the TBX tone pots so a wide variety of tones from this one. I have owned several JP/90's and an aerodyne and a Strings and Things St. Blues King Blues (made in Memphis TN USA). Not the currently made ones and the P-bass plus is my favorite.

But they sound and feel great! Especially for the price!

I'm not a Fender guy, but I did like the PJ Aerodyne I played with once at GC. I was impressed.
