Fender Precision Bass thread

[Jughead6]

I don't even have a P bass. But it's all good.

 

[Nobody]

I have a P bass in spirit.

 

[nuhckes8]

would it be good to put a p bass on my flatwound strings and my tort pickguard?

 

[othefool]

If everyone started a P bass thread I can almost guarantee world peace.

Visualize whirled p's

 

[Kukulkan61]

If my p bass is from the 70s, is it still good?

Its still good but my 61 is gooder..

 

[othefool]

My 51 Dirnt RW is good.

 

[othefool]

My 91 Peavey Unity p/j is good.

( sticking with the theme of the op - I usually am more explicit in my praise/love of this bass)

 

[othefool]

Are p/j's ok, or am I out of line?

I need clarity.

 

[Pocket4]

My P talks to me. It gets jealous, I think, when I talk to myself. Other than that, I'm totally good with this. I'm still working on building a long term relationship. Plus, the P is really good for meddle.

 

[othefool]

Whirled. P's

Ok I am done.

Carry on.

 

[ScarfFace]

I think we determined PJ might be less good, than P basses, but there is some internal conflict.

Hell no. The P-Bass was born perfect, unlike all other bass designs. To add a jazz pickup is to sully its form and deny its perfection.

actually? is that true? im serious.

I see. I still think my Unity is good. I will not participate in this club.

Look! A Squirrel!

 

[Caleb Mills]

They are good.

This post along with the Cat avi are just cracking me up. It's like an actual cat hacked your TB account. =D

 

[Real Soon]

Can't deny, my 50s Honey Blonde is treating me like a king.


It's got a phantom dead spot in the usual place: my ear can't detect any difference in tone or sustain on the high D, G string 7th fret, but that note tracks terribly on any effect like octaves & harmonizers and dies out quickly on gate-y effects like the Gonkulator on my BP355. Adjacent notes are better but not great. So I just shift positions for anything played with those effects, and have beautiful full range for everything else.

It has been a great pleasure to finally see a thread dedicated to extolling the virtues of the P bass. It is long over due. But I feel we should also give thanks to Goodbody P Squier, the inventor of the bass that bears his middle initial.

 

[othefool]

Chuck Norris's P Bass has no dead spots.

But...every note on Chuck Norris's P lives in a CONSTANT STATE OF MORTAL TERROR!

OMG you guys...My P Bass just turned into a time machine suddenly and transported me back to 2011 or whenever it was that Chuck Norris jokes were relevant! Sorry about that. Had to hit mute to get back to you all. Better change those strings to flats before this happens again!

Truth. Now there's an instrument inventor. Not like that Leo Fender guy. What was that bass called? The STINKray?

Longer than that. I got tired of Chuck Norris jokes my first year of middle school. Guess they just don't have the staying power of the P-Bass.

I'm off to start a new thread called "what bass does Chuck Norris play?"

Hint: it's a P.
