Fender Deluxe P/J Bass

[Jeff K]

I have one of these in the Seafoam Pearl Metallic, and I love it. As most of you know, it's been offered recently in the Seafoam and the Sunburst.

But I just noticed that it's now offered by MF in Olympic White. (The Seafoam and Sunbursts are now on sale, but the Olympic White is not.) Looks pretty nice! I apologize if this is old news. It was new to ME!

I have only one Fender wish, that I could order this bass in any Fender color I want for a mere $50 extra. Easy enough for them to do.
Excellent bass, but Race Red with a black or tort pickguard would be nice. That new Slick Silver would look good, too.
Funny that Squier gets these colors but not Fender.

I wish they would offer it in a rosewood fingerboard.

 

[Bodeanly]

I bet if you called, you'd get the sale price for the oly white.

(I wish it had an active circuit.)

These are excellant basses. When they are on sale, they're one of the best bargains for a new bass out there. An example of just how much the Ensada factory has uped its game in recent years.

Buy some strings and within a week you'll find a GC 15%-off coupon in your email.

I wish they'd offer it as a 5er... as in 5 string. I'd so love this one in surf (or seafoam) pearl.

But the problem with those if you read the fine print is that you can't use them for stuff you actually want. Big blockouts... no way could you use it to buy a decent Fender bass.

Sure you can. You need to call them. Some manufacturers do not allow online coupons.

Here's a recent video on this bass with upgraded Geezer EMG pickups. I got the exact same bass with the Geezers. The stock P sounds killer, but I hated the noiseless J in mine. The white looks awesome. I was skeptical about buying a MIM Fender, but the quality on these are top notch.

I have the Seafoam Pearl from the 2012 FSR run at GC...as noted, P pups are killer, Noiseless J is weak and toneless...I may be letting her go, getting bored of it ;-) She is stock and mint.

 

[Bassamatic]

I have one - it has become my FAVORITE P-style bass. I love the slim J neck, the finish, the great hardware and of course, the color.
The sound with T.I. Flats is perfect.

 

[InhumanResource]

Man, every time I played one of these in GC it just did not sound good to me. Wish I could find a good one to see what you guys are talking about.

Must be 3TS and have a rosewood fretboard

You might want to replace the J pickup with a Fender Super 55.
They're getting harder and harder to find.

Of course, I've used GC coupons to buy Fender products three or four times.
Once, a 20% one!

Getting that 20% one is like finding the golden Easter egg!
