Not quite a P bass...

[Samatza]

An uninterrupted pepperoni slice that big has a certain charm.

yes, pepperoni, that's what it reminds me of. Yes, a slice that big is a rare gem indeed!

I would play it.

Put a split single coil with a high enough winding in there and you'd be onto something.

So, what do you call this thing?

A mistake?

 

[HaphAsSard]

How about "Jacuzzion"?
Eh?
It could come with a large pool route under the guard, for every time you change your mind... (The bridge J is always there to provide bubbles...)

Why make it worse with that pickguard? Personal taste and all but jeez I've rarely seen such unfortunate pairings.

 

[Kaa]

It's a Precision Treble.

LOL!!!

For that price I might give it a go. At the worst it would have that Jazz bass bridge pickup tone (in my opinion).

Well, aside from the lack of a pickup in the spot I like to have one, I am really not digging the orange pickguard against the sunburst. I wonder if there's a route under it for a P pickup and another volume knob, it looks like a custom job.

Clearly someone's dream bass, just not mine. To each their own I guess.

Something obstructs my view of the phenomenal carpet.

 

[rufus.K]

I dig it. I guess nobody here has EQ on their amp. It's prolly quite articulate.

Confusing

 

[Aidenn7]

I rather just wireup a squire affinity p j like that with an active emg.. in the bridge.. for that bright aggressive pick jazz tone..

 

[Avezzano]

Ok: the pickguard is horrible. Ok: the fretlight leds stuff is... meh for any standard bassplayer, but maybe useful for anyone interested in improving their fretboard notes knowledge. But I can agree that it is not really a super needed feature.

But... just cannot get the huge sarcasm for a single bridge pickup bass. What is it: because it only is a jazz type pickup? It has less... dignity versus a neck pickup? Simple prejudice? A jazz type pickup is of a minor league vs. a MM or P or whatever else pickup?
