I've got one of these bad boys ...

It's a new thing, relatively-speaking, to the bass-world. Let me say, and I'll qualify this by saying I'm a lifelong 'P-Man' (past: 62 Pre CBS/multiple CS Fenders/Lakland/Sadowsky PJ everything ; current: Sadowsky PJ5 and my Olinto P5) :

My bass is hands-down the most period-correct 'Pre CBS, classic-era PBass with a killer B-string' that I've ever encountered. Mas Hino/Cocco family/James Carbonetti absolutely nailed it with these.

I'm betting this one is even deeper and fatter sounding with that body. Boy howdy. Secure your fragile objects before playing through an amp.
