    I keep coming back to these amazing Tony Franklin fretted PJ basses because they offer custom shop quality at AVRI prices. Made in USA. 8.5 Pounds.
    The neck is a wonderful, modern C shape - almost into J territory and frets are great. Small dent on G string side of body. Ships in a Fender case and is strung with Labella strings.

    How wide is the nut?
    Sounds like a traditional Fender, bat shaped neck front to back?

    1.625 and the specs say a modern C shape, so I'll correct that above.

    Thanks. This is a tough bass to let go and has served me well on some bigger gigs. Not sure if people understand these basses. Basically, a really great 70s P with nitro and CS quality. The P pickup is special.

    I had one and sorry I let it get away. It’s the only one I miss and I’ve had many basses.
    I hope mine goes first but either way GLWTS!!!!

    These are really fantastic basses and this one is priced right. If I didn’t already have one I’d buy this one!

    I can't think of a better P for only over a grand. Made in USA, too!
