I wanted to add:let's face it, you can't get any more boring than a P bass in grandpa burst and tort.
got this 2020 AM PRO II in mint condition today. still got the plastic on the ol' pickguard, with a JAZZ bass sticker. it's hardly been played!
a hat-trick of firsts for me:
• first US fender bass
• first P Bass
• first maple fretboard
weighs in at 8.6Ibs and balances really well.
need to put some TI flats on it and set it up to my liking, but it sounds and plays great just how it came.
this will probably be my last bass (i know, i know) and i was pleased to snag it for a good price. US fenders have gone through the roof in the EU and even used ones seem to be holding their value.
there can't be many 60-year-old bass players who have gone so long before owning a P Bass!

That sunburst with a tort guard and maple board is just classic! You can't get any more classic than that. Of course, this is coming from someone that is almost 71 years old.
It is just a satisfying combination to me that can't be beat.
I have stepped out with some unconventional combinations lately, but I have my classics covered.
You have a classic that will just get better with age!
