Something Wicked This Way Comes...

A Hammersmith P4 is on its way to my grubby little hands.

There's a pic of it on Facebook: Invalid Link Removed

If you don't have Facebook, here it is on imgur:

Since I couldn't decide between a black pickguard, and a tort pickguard, @MarkoYYZ sent both to me!

Look's great with both pickguards! Congrats!

Black/tort/rosewood is one of my favorite combinations. Congratulations!

Thursday seems so far away.

No me gusta tort on black. Definitely go with the black on black instead.

Black + tort + rosewood = 1 gorgeous bass!! Congrats!!

Thanks. I can't wait to play it. I play at church on July 3rd, so I plan on using it then for its first "performance".

Is that a NOS BadAss II, or an Omega?

Coincidentally, I just sold a black Precision today.

It's neither. Look more closely and you'll see the tail of the bridge is slotted for quick release of the strings.

You just had to be a Smartass, didn't you?

I think it's their Smartass bridge.

Cool bass, very Geezer!

These bridges are sweet, if they become available for sale separate im outfitting my Fender with one.

I think it's their Smartass bridge.

Congrats on a smart looking bass, I'm saving my money for a fretless Hammersmith bass.

Not to be an uber smartass... but that looks like it would be more of a pain to string the bass, no?

Nope.

Looks a lot easier to me.

Tooooort on black is soooo classy

I think the black pickguard looks much better than the tortOISESHELL.

 

[wintremute]

I like the option of having both (black and tort pickguards). Anytime I switch, it's almost like getting a new bass!

Well, it does have the Geezer pickups.
