Ohh, I’m sorry, this is abuse! yes, that’s the internet

I would never buy from someone that doesn't know the difference between "your" and "you're".

My parts PJ previously posted has a 2003 MIM P neck -- it's perrrrfect!

Yes! I love my custom parts PJ bass. (Stacked tone/volume and a 3-way rotary pickup selector)

I went through a similar thing -- and ended up selling my BAII and going back to stock a few years ago. I recently put on a Hipshot A-style (Fender mount) as I did some customizations, and love it. The hipshot didn't change the tone at all, but gave me a stable foundation with adjustable spacing.

I found this thread doing a search, since I'm thinking about doing the same. Did you try the stc-3m3? If so, what did you think?

LOL /me Glances at my P with tort

I've got tort on mine, but with the flame -- I vote black! Great looking bass
