Gratuitous posting simply because I'm having one of those moments where I just really dig this particular instrument. I picked up this little MIJ P Bass in a trade a while back, and like I was hoping, it's a great example of the quality that was coming out of Japan 30 years ago. For the money, this thing is a killer (I traded a bass that I had about 180 bucks in).
A very amateur iridescent spray can paint is just one of the great features. It's hard to capture in pics, but it looks blue, or green, or purple, or even brown depending on the light and the angle. I thought about refinishing it, but my kids like it, so....anyway. One of those pickups that's either DiMarzio or something exactly like it. And a super comfy, great playing neck. In a word, workhorse. I'm considering adding a J pickup at some point, as I love a good P/J combo (and I wouldn't be afraid to rout this body). Anyway, the photos:
