NBD! (and first post)

Hello! I've been reading a lot of posts on TB but didn't have anything worth posting myself until now. I was given this new Fender Standard P Bass in Ocean Turquoise by my wonderful fiance - totally unexpected surprise!!! I'm marrying quite the perfect lady (IMO):)! Standard Fender MIM specs, just limited edition color (pic doesn't do it justice). Sounds and plays great :bassist:. Maple fret board is something different for me - should complete my collection (maybe);).
Thanks for letting me share the news!

Congrats! Saw one Friday at GC. Beautiful color on a solid Pbass. Your a lucky guy.

Welcome to TalkBass and congratulations on your first bass and finding the perfect soulmate. A lovely partner and a lovely bass are a great combination to go through life with. As I should know having both of those myself.

Really love that color. And since it's a Precision Bass what else isn't to like about it?

Play it well. Luck! :thumbsup::)
 
Dude, what a beautiful gift from obviously a beautiful woman with a beautiful soul.

Not telling you anything you don't know, but that is a niiiiiice instrument. I'm an old, longtime player. To me, though there are many excellent basses and a wide variety of them, a Fender P is THE bass.

Enjoy that bass forever, and cherish and honor that wonderful Lady and partner!
