I gave my Precision a makeover

I put block stickers on my Donner P. The Fender has dots but honestly if I came across the right neck with real blocks I'd put it on my Fender. Especially if it's got a rosewood fingerboard. That's the only time I prefer rosewood too.

You're not alone on this. I love that P tone, but prefer the slimmer J neck. I'm currently saving up to build my dream Bass because Fender doesn't build one exactly like I want. I want a quilt Maple top with no pickguard, string through, 18v active/passive with sweepable mid, PJ pickup configuration, although I may never use the bridge pickup. But I may change my mind one day, so I want it there.

personally I never liked blocks, Always preferred the elegant simplicity of dots, but that's what make the world go round, enjoy it!

I would LOVE an active/passive with sweepable mid. I think you just gave me my next upgrade!
