Coolest looking P-Bass?

[Vince Klortho]

I like the sparkle blue! BA bridge and maple are personal favorites of mine too even though I don't have them on all my babies.

Me too. That's a really nice bass.

Just got mine back from set up today after a total refinish. I think it's pretty cool looking.

You are correct

 

[Vince Klortho]

You are correct

I agree ! White body, maple neck, and the HMB are all good stuff !

I like it, too. What's the story behind the finish?

What's the story with this one?

It originated from Matsumoku island in the early 80's as a black 32" Squier. Dee-Man was kind enough to sell it to me last year and ship it to JohnK who worked it over with his skilled hands. The original finish was so tough and resistant to stripping chemicals, he had to sand it off. While he was at it, he smoothed the forearm cut. The transition to the body was a bit sharp in his opinion. He fashioned the pick guard from a nitro blank and did his dye and buffing process on it to emphasize the red hue. I went with his recommendation to substitue a Duncan SBP-1 (covers dulled for period-correctness) pickup, as the original had too much midrange emphasis. Yes, there can be too much of a good thing. We agreed that it was worthy of wearing Leo's last name on it's headstock.

JohnK has very capable hands. I was fortunate to pickup one of his creations from ebay of all places and got a tremendous deal.

I love my Candy Cola P5, but I think this is the all time winner. Holy toledo is that amazingly beautiful, like if a raspberry smoothie became a Precision.

A raspberry smoothie is a better comparison than my son likening it to bubblebum.
