The official "Show your basses" thread part 19!

Here’s the original color +/-

And a friends ‘68 like mine , next to mine that stayed home a little more

I like your’s better!

I think they both look great, aged nicotine and no aged nicotine.

Here's my 1964 P, my all-time favorite sounding Precision by a noticeable margin (and I've owned a bunch of pre-CBS Fenders), and loads of nicotine came on it:

Especially noticeable on the backs of the machines:

So maybe the nicotine indicates lots and lots of use by someone that agreed that it's one of the good ones.

You're the first person I'll call...

I'm in MN a couple of times a year, and El's up there a lot lately. Since she grew up in Rochester, we shouldn't have much trouble finding you!

Basses ignored and reacquainted are like new bass days!

It's such a great tone. My only criticism of it is preference and that's the baseball bat neck profile. Maybe in a few years I'll have it shaped down a bit to a D from the C shape

Poorly lit Classic Vibe 60's P bass. I have an Affinity as well. How do you like the quarter pounders?

Modified Affinity Jazz Bass (now has Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounders

Squier Affinity Jazz Bass

It wouldn't be hard...not that big

 

[smallerthings]

Two of the most comfortable basses I've ever played have been a Matt Freeman Squier Sig, and now an Affinity Jaguar H. I thought highly of Squier before, and now I think highly of the Affinity line also. Nice basses.

I buy Squier exclusively for both guitar and bass. The quality is generally great for the price and easily customizable.

I can't justify spending almost $1k for a Fender when I can get these for 1/3 the price.

Absolutely love it!

And that makes seven.

Squier Mustang. Going to replace the pu for a Nordstrand, get the pots and wiring replaced and I'll put some LaBella flats on it.
Other than that it's a very nice bass

I’m considering buy one of this Mustang.

Was bored and recently swapped a lake placid blue Squier I've had since new in 2017 for of all things this, what I believe is a Dean ZBX. Had Seymour Duncans and CTS pots, etc already installed and done decently. I had the fret board leveled and its a beast. Someone stripped the black off so I may redo it. The natural looks good though. Neck dive sucks but I have an idea for that that will help with aesthetics also.

Little kids getting endorsements from Mayones... I quit, lol

Little kids getting endorsements from Mayones... I quit, lol

That kid puts in the work I gotta say. I really like that little Aaron kid too. His bass faces are the best. But with all the social media exposure of these young players it's also very lucrative for the endorsing companies. But I do get it lol. Sometimes I watch somebody and just think I should burn all my stuff

It definitely makes me want one of those Mayones short scale basses.
