Details

Up for sale is my late 90's Fender Hot Rod P-Bass. As many of you know, these are much sought after and it is a wonder why Fender doesn't make a Hot Rod P in the new American Standard line. Anyway, here are the specs:

Alder P Body
Maple P Neck
Dimarzio DP126 PJ pickups *I upgraded to the Dimarzio's from the stock Fender pickups. FYI, I do not have the original pickups in case you are curious.
2 vol, 1 tone
Olympic White with Tort Gaurd
Brand New Rockcase bass case

The pickups were professionally installed and I just had the bass set up professionally since I had a few others getting work on them. The bass is currently strung with Dean Markley Blue Steels (med.). The bass is in overall very good shape. There is one pretty good ding that you can see in the pics below.

Between the pickups and brand new guitar case, I have more money in this bass than I am selling it for. I am selling b/c I had my 08 Am Std. routed for a Fralin PJ set and I just don't really need 2 basses so similar.

$900 shipped UPS Ground Insured (cont. US only)

The ding I mentioned. You can get a pretty good idea of size from the volume knobs on the pickguard.

I own a fender hot rod P and i can easily say this is my favorite "new" fender that i have tried. They really got it right on this one.

I own this exact same bass, only mine is 100% stock. I can clearly say it is a killer instrument, and not many white/maple ones are out there.

This is exactly what my Hot Rod P looked like before the fire! If I had the money I'd be throwing it at you.

Sorry for the delay on a weight, our scale took weird batteries that the drug store didn't have. On the dig. bathroom scale, you tend to get some fluctuations if you weigh things more than once. I was getting between 9 and 9.5. It is definitely not more than 9.5, but I'm thinking a little under that.
