Fender does sell them. They’re made in Mexico.

I recently built a Fender clone using a Fender roasted maple P bass neck. The neck is beautiful and seems to be very stable, but isn't really any lighter than my other Fender or Allparts necks. I'm surprised to hear that the Ultralites will only save 2.5 ounces, but still, 2.5 ounces up near the...

What is the meaning of "tame?" It's a very subjective term. Are we talking about the highs? The lows? The mids?

How about this for a one-of-a-kind P Bass build? This is an official MJT alder body with an aged vintage 100% nitro Barnwood finish. It weighs in at a light 4 lbs 8 oz. It's brand new and unused. Selling for $295 including shipping within the continental US. Note: Pickguard not included.

I’ve got one of those also. I like a lot about it except for the top vents and noisy fan.

The amps seems somewhat attractive, but 11.5 pounds for a modern class D sound a little heavy. By comparison, the Markbass 1000 watt amps are all around 6 pounds.

"Whatever note you play, play it on time.

This is a parts bass I built a few years ago starting with an MJT body. It's better than any genuine Fender I've ever played.

Two different Ibanez's. One was a four. One was a five. I never liked the tone on either one. I guess I'm not an Ibanez guy.

Oh, the sacrilege! What's next? Mixing bass brands and amps? When will it end???

In retrospect, it's probably the used Epiphone Allen Woody I bought a few years ago off of eBay for $200. It was in pristine condition. They're getting crazy money for these now and they seem to be hard to get. I also scored a used Dean Cabbie hollow body bass from Guitar Center for $319 a few...

Thank you. The tugbar, of course, is purely ornamental and the I don't actually use the pickup cover when I play. The other one is a Reverend Rumblefish with the bug eye finish.

Another couple of favorites.

My three favorite basses that I currently own are all parts basses. And that includes comparison with some far more valuable basses. All three feature MJT bodies and weigh about 8 pounds.

Awesome! Congrats.
