Baiting accomplishes nothing so slack is the word I would use. How hard is it to take down an item when it's bought and settled?

Could be worse if you had done the gig and gotten a case of covid. At least you got a nice country lane drive in with the fuel paid. Back in the day I hitchhiked on England's country lanes. What a variety of folks I met. No whizzed of bass players though.

Many of the UK made Fenderesque P repro's come with J necks if you are that way inclined. Only problem is most are also fake road worn and the hardware genuinely rusted to hell.

...that actually works.

Now you will feel the anguish of the bassist when a 'pianist' is playing (bass) keys all over you and perhaps be qualified to rectify your keys player, or maybe set to learning comping left hand chords your good self.

Have you tried a P Deluxe?

Who knows what he does with the extra coin? Surely he doesn't need it to keep up the house what with Queen even split royalties pouring in.

Couldn't be any worse handling than a Gibson LP 'bass'?

Afaik you are SOL for stock offerings, being a total outlier.

You can turn it off! 1 down, how about @Geek99?

Have you ever played a P Deluxe?

That's pretty much what you get, along with a Jazz sound available, on a 'P Deluxe'. Even the body is tending towards Jazz cut. Base covered.

Eh? We get two weeks iso from diagnosis here.

I could have sworn I replied to this a couple of days ago. I had a look at the site to see what all the fuss was about. Perfectly navigable shambles, which makes it's own statement about business I suppose. It's a good thing it is way over there or I would have a Japanese P I don't need.

P type 2+2 pickups have a less than perfect hum bucking relationship that doesn't carry forward to the 3+2 set perfectly well either. Just to complicate things.

But you know where he keeps his dog.

If the sandwich material would take a screw and hold it there would be a lot more CF in the bass cab world. Sadly a minor knock to a fixture will tear the fixture off when it is screwed on. That sort of 'careless use' isn't so uncommon and accidents happen. In my world the tradeoff for extra super light doesn't overcome my reluctance to have to deal with the fragility. I said it before, in this thread probably, what they should be doing is a plywood baffle, glue on some more substantial puck style feet, and corners. Then you would only have to worry about stray impacts. Carry on the super light theme with a Kevlar slip cover.

Nope. I see what you mean, but damn, what colour is it actually???

Different number of pickups.

I'd be reluctant to buy anything with two sets of photos of different basses mixed up.

Crazy8 in the classifieds. Hide under the bed but gigable at polite volumes.

The only pedal I ever sold and replaced.

Carbon fibre cabs were falling into ruin ten years ago. It just isn't the right material for rectangular boxes and stuff fixed on with screws. There's another composite material that is ideally suited. It's name is plywood.

Good tip. (Ba-dum---tish)

Recommended to get a good handle on TS TRS before launching into these buggers.
