New Modulus model. P-Bass!

Forgive me if this is already being discussed, but.....

There will be a 5-string as well....
 
What difference would you say a graphite neck makes to a P?

I've only ever had flats on this bass but out of my Modulus Quantum, jazz, and precision, the graphite seems to tonally affect the precision the least. There are no dead spots, the sustain is excellent, the tone is very full and even across the fretboard, and the neck is resistant to temperature/humidity, but the characteristic "graphite tone" is generally absent for the most part.

YMMV with roundwounds but I can't speak to that since I have no experience.
