Ok, i can't decide.

this is the best squier by far, if you decide on squier or whatever, this kills both of those basses by a long shot. by the way, if you're not into V's, there is a IV too, and i see you like black... you can get either of them in all black. as for the p or tbird, i wouldn't recommend either.

I like different basses - I'd get the T-bird. You can adjust the sound with strings. I've always like their look!

If you had a third option, I'd vote for the Squier Vintage Modified TB Precision Bass Guitar (the now well-regarded '51 P clone).

 

I tried one a couple of weeks ago, and the neck had a not so great feel about it, felt kinda flimsy. Could have been a pour setup.
