NBD! First Fender P bass!

[Mikey F]

I started on a Hondo P bass back in 86, however I never have had a Fender. That changed today. Custom shop 51 P. I couldn’t really hang with the pick up cover.....oh well. I absolutely love it so far. Nice fat warmth, and it plays great.

Stoked!

SWEET

Return it, the paint is gone in some areas on the bass in case you didn't noticed. Looks great, enjoy and rock it.

Aged like fine wine! Cool color combo.

What's the nut width?

 

[bholder]

Ooooh! A "real" P-bass! Mad props (is that still a thing, even?) for the single coil & tele headstock!

 

[Mikey F]

The nut is 1 and 3/4

Very good choice!

Yeowza! When you do it, you do it right! Congratulations.

Actually there has been 30 years of stops in between, but never back to the OG. I figured it was time to start at the beginning.

Dude that is a seriously sick looking bass. Awesome choice!

 

[JRA]

looks like too much fun...finally, eh?! congratulations on your new instrument!

That's a nice looking bass. Kinda went the same route. First bass was a Hondo P in the early 90's. Played a Fender Jazz for the next 20+ years. Bought my first Fender Precision just last year. Congrats.

Do you know him well enough to enquire about the width of his nuts?
