What do you think of it Just by the photos, which one is your favorite and why?

1. P5! The P-bass you've all been waiting for is here!

It has a Marcus Vintage Precision Revolution Set and a simple passive volume tone control.

P5 is made of North American Alder. Its C-shaped roasted hard maple neck keeps it vintage while its rolled fretboard edges enhance its playability and mantains its comfortable feel.

The P5 neck is made as a precision style bass with a wide neck profile.

Oh men! The P5 in mild-green and the D5 in butterscotch-blonde .... hard (impossible) to resist! I think the D5 is the one to enter first, looks amazing, and curious to hear its pickup!

My only concern/question is: How much does it weigh? I love the sounds I can get from my V7 jazz bass but it's a bit on the heavy side for this 63 year old man with a bunch of hardware in my back and 7 months out from triple bypass surgery. Sire's website doesn't list weight. Anybody had one for review yet?
