Which P bass

[Skeletomania]

I'm thinking of getting a used P bass. I'm debating which of the bass I should get. My choices are either MIA P bass, G&L sb-2 or a CIJ P bass.

I played a MIM Fender P not long ago that was very good. IMO as good as most MIA I have tried

MIA for me, please.

I loving my MIJ P, especially for the price. I don't know much about G&L, but between the two fenders i say MIJ.

Get a MIM than mod it.

Modding MIM P-basses is cool ... but for best value right out of the box I'd say a G&L SB-2, G&L makes some good stuff. I've heard that their SB-2's are basically like a P-bass on steroids, more output and slightly more aggressive tone but with the versatility of a J pup on the bridge.

That is what I heard too, and the SB-2 is cheaper in the used market than the MIA. But I want that good old P sound that i'm sure a fender P can get.
