Here's mine. US Glaub P/J with J Neck. I traded a Sadowsky NYC ultra vintage jazz for this plus cash and have no regrets. I'd do it again in a heartbeat.
NICE trade!
congrats on a sweet bass....love the color and pickup combo...
Huh..
44-14 Guess 14 means there not out for a while?
What do you think street is if 24 is retail.. or is 24 street?
I'd buy a CAR rosewood one of these if I could find a light one (Only reason I'm not on LPCarter's Classic is that it's heavier than I want)

I think the P (I believe to be the "vintage" wind) is very close to a Fralin in other words negligible. The split J on the other hand,I prefer the Fralin overwound+5.
I have a bass with dual chis and one with neo punch p bass, believe me the neo punch is a killer.
2400 was a swag for street on my part...I've seen the prices, but couldn't remember the exact...
I'm not referring to the Hanson split J with vintage wind. I'm referring to the neopunch split J.
Those are descriptors unless you can explain why they have virtue.
I'm a huge fan of single coil pups, so that's definitely virtuous, and I would guess a single piece body has a more "natural" sound to it as there's no glue to disrupt the vibration through the body. But what's so advantageous about the "vintage" qualifiers?I'm playing a bit of devil's advocate because we throw around terms like vintage and fat and assume everyone understands emphatically what they mean..
Fair enough.. I don't know the difference. I just know my experience with a USA P+J that had the "lakland" PU's
Loved the P..Ehh on the J.

The 51 has more of a crisper attack. Mid focus is shifted up. More wood in the body and neck give it a very solid, punchy character. Great with rounds, but with flats, it really moves some air.
I can only comment on the P pickups. Hanson Neopunch= aggressive upper-mid bite. The Fralin is more old-school with a low-mid bump. (The vintage-wind Hanson P pickup, which I have in my Glaub/Dunn, is quite close to the latter.) The Nordy P5 in the LOG bass I tried briefly was in between those two, I believe.
