Ideas for a franken P? I have a Modulus BaSSStar neck that I once had on a Fender Jazz body, and other than a slighlty loose, side-to-side fit in the pocket (well, not loose, but just a little space there), it fit well. I got rid of that body (sold it with its original neck), and am now wanting to put together a custom P using the Modulus neck.
I wondered if Fender made only the one size Precision body. My son's G&L LB 100 has a Precision shaped body, but is a little smaller–less bulky looking. I've seen the Precision Lyte model and don't care for it. Just thinking a bit smaller P body in the way Warmoth makes a "Dinky J". I don't think they offer one.
Would love to join the club and post pics of what I have in mind: Deep redburst P with a black guard and a Darkstar using the Modulus neck. Other than this pending project, I've pretty much run out of GAS.

One word. GAS.
NEED. WANT. LOVE.
Okay...four words.
Too bad about the tort guard. Yuck.
Otherwise a quick switch and wow, you'd be money.
A rare PCM which went only for 90 bucks.

Here's mine. The body is made of wonder woman jet technology....actually, it's a part for a custom finish job. It's a 94 MIM Fender P. Can I join?
O.K., so you believe I have the entire thing, there's also a pic of it on my wall before I stripped it. It's hanging next to my Schecter Stiletto, MIM Strat, and Speedster Travler.
OK, here is the finished product. An improvement over red/white?

Is there something wrong with having a tort guard on a natural finish P-bass?

Is it me or is the bridge and/or neck out of alignment!

That, my friend... is a beautiful bass!
Has anyone in here made a P-bass Special (With the Jazz pickup) active? I've got one and I'm thinking of it, but I was curious if it's able to be done.
Or, is there a way to make it as hot as an active? Like a certain pickup setup that I could put in?
I'm thinking of putting DiMarzio DP127's into the middle position, but I'm just asking for my options.

You...have great taste in basses......and no there is nothing wrong with a tort guard on a natural body!
Well, I just don't like tort guards or sunbursts finishes, honestly.
I'm weird like that.
But I would love a natural finish with black pickguard.

Now there's a nice finish.
If I had my way I'd have one like this, a black/black, and natural/black.
