    Would really prefer to keep this one local to central Illinois for now. Willing to travel an hour or two outside of Springfield IL to meet.

    Trade value ~$1k
    Interests: 4,5,6 strings(+/-$$)
    Class D heads +$$
    Lightweight cabs +$$
    Boutique preamps


    Way cool P bass!

    I built this kind of riffing off of the old Duck Dunn signature Fender ran in the late 90s. Built with some really great parts. I had intended on actually keeping this one around for the long haul and it has served me well but the Jazz gets most of the love anymore so here we are.

    -Fender American Original 50s neck(1.73 and thicker than a snicker)
    -Fender Nate Mendel RW ash body(with a little extra mojo)
    -Fender Custom Shop ‘62 pickup
    -Hipshot A Bridge
    -Gold anodized guard from ‘57 AVRI
    -Currently string with Labella low tension flexible flats
    -9lb 5oz

    I'm full up on Ps but that's a badass P nonetheless

    Boy is it ever...I put it up on the block because I’ve been almost exclusively playing a new Jazz I picked up. Ripped on the P a bit this morning and now I’m on the fence with moving it. May not keep it up much longer honestly.

    Thanks for the kind words Tim
    :thumbsup:

    Would you possibly let go of the neck separately?

    If you decide to part this out, I’d be interested in the strings.

    It’s hard to beat LaBellas. Honestly if this bass wasn’t the color it was, I’d buy it as is. I’ll shoot you a Pm about the neck.

    If this was the AV 58 neck and not the AO 50s, I’d be on it in a heartbeat. I just don’t like the feel of the 9.5 radius. Bummer! I bet someone will pick this up real quick, though! Great parts, so I bet it’s a great bass and at a really good price!

    wow great deal...just the neck and body alone are well worth more than what your asking imo. have enough p basses, (i think) lol......but that color combo is nice with the gold p/g
