Pbass choices, Moollon, Nash, Fender CS, or ?

[Doug Bright]

I've been considering another p bass. I have one with flats, but would like another for rounds.
Are there others I should consider? Can't afford true vintage.
Thoughts?

Not sure about the Nash P, but I sure like my J-63.

Mike Lull, Sadowsky

Ive never heard a Sadowsky that sounds like a vintage P.

Moollon and Wilkins p bass

What specs do you prefer? Nut width, radius, finish type, etc.?

Lull P4. I've been happily playing mine for 15 years. Nickel Lo Riders sound great on it.

Nash makes great playing basses. Lull and Sadowsky too, of course, but depends on your budget.

Another idea is get a P for rounds, a P for half rounds and a P for tapes. And a Jazz. And a fretless. And a hollow body short scale. And something headless. And some pedals.

Nut width- 1.75
Radius- 9.5
Finish- Nitro

I am pretty sure that knocks Moollon out because I think they only do vintage correct 7.25" radius. Honestly with those specs I wouldn't even go up to Fender CS, I would do an Fender American Original series bass.

... and Wilkins p bass

The radius is a little flexible. I'm am not 100% firm on the 9.5.

If you are looking for vintage feel and tone done perfectly, Moollon is my top choice.

Moollon width is not 1.75". I vote Wilkins.
