NBD -Fender Standard Precision

[Daniel109]

Been wanting this for ages now. finally got it Sunday night.
brand new 2015 MIM Fender Standard Precision.
Arctic white with Maple fretboard.

A few adjustments: I added a Fender 60s vintage style Tort pickguard (model#: 0992021000) which is a perfect fit (and also has holes for a tugbar and pickup cover which I may add later).
and some Loxx Strap locks

Plays great, and is super bright sounding.

The Amp behind it is a UK made Ashdown Little Bastard LB-30 head with 212 MAG-SLIM Cab

The new MIM's are awesome, I wasnt much of a fan of the 90's early 2000's ones but id like a newer one.

I don't know how I lived without a P-Bass for all those yrs. I'm lovin' my Mexican 50's lacquer model!

I don't like owning too much stuff. So I decided to sell the other three basses I had, and just get one.
Since I've wanted a Fender Precision since before I even started playing, this is it.

nice bass, hnbd. I love my 2013 MIM P.

I agree. I owned a '98 Jazz that was just awful. Cheap controls, a perpetually rattling A string, noisy electricals, and gritty tuners. Every inch felt cheap. But the current MIM's I've played have been terrific -- to the point I'd question spending the extra money for an MIA.

OP -- well bought and I hope you enjoy it for a long time.

Good looking acquisition! Hope you get years of enjoyment out of it. Congrats!

Love it. I wonder if the Artic White will mellow over time like the Olympic White does?

Beautiful.

My P is White/Tort/Maple, also.

Is the fret board on these newer MIM models lacquered? It looks lacquered.

Is the fret board on these newer MIM models lacquered? It looks lacquered.

the fret board has some shiny clear coat on it, but the back of the neck has a stain finish, and is quite smooth. I did try the Dee Dee Ramone model when I bought this one but the neck on it was really tacky. this one was much nicer.
