I must say ive been blown away by mine, after never having owned one since before last week in 15 years+ of playing. Versatile yet simple, effective in almost any situation. Everyone should have one!

CATHEAD

I have a sunburst P... ...oh dear.

Rog! Legend. Went to see him do DSOTM 3 years running, some of the best gigs ive ever seen. Im liking the black + black pickguard combo, very nice Buzz!

Thats porn-tastic, and I totally agree with ET in that it looks like a bass shop. lol

Oh my word. What a lovely collection of kit OTPJ! I presume you have a friendly, understanding bank manager?

Exactly the thing I was looking for before buying my 2009 P ( [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=68439"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=68439[/url] ) . Lovely lovely bass indeed in a classic colour scheme, great buy!

I dont dig relicing either but thats a beauty...!

You finally post! lol! Welcome on board Kev.

How bizarre - I was just talking to a fellow BC member here in the office (BassCat) about putting flats on it! Ill do that after this weekend's gigs, payday tomorrow (woop)

Yes, it does... ...liar! lol seriously though, nice P's indeed sir. Had I bought that '76 I would not have got my lovely new 2009 P which im totally besotted with, so swings and roundabouts as they say...

AH! So you are the b*gger who bought that 76' P on the morning I was going to see it! I hate you. (only joking, lovely stuff chap.)

Evening guys... thanks for all the nice comments. OTPJ - I tried a number of Jazzes and just couldnt get on with them, even the very expensive one in V&R that some on here have taken a liking to. I prefer the P-Sound, i suppose im more of a "rawk" boy, but the fact you can get some lovely bottom end out of a P for the funky stuff also sold it. All my other basses arent exactly versatile so a P seemed the natural choice. The sheets? No idea, missus got them from somewhere! And DJV, you are of course welcome over for cups of tea and bass and biccies whenever ya like! lol! Although this time I wont get you fixing any amps, you can just drink tea and play! Must put some of the piccies of that evening up, some serious $$$$'s of bass gear in my house that night...

Id had the horn for a Fender for ages, i have a lovely little Musicmaster for rehearsals but just had to go out and get the real deal. Quick fact : ive never bought a new bass before, so this is all a bit new to me. Mmm. Pretty SKB case with "case candy" inside as well. Very happy. So : here's the porn.

I just had to say, this thread title was awesome. [i]gets coat[/i]

[quote name='henry norton' post='656157' date='Nov 16 2009, 05:38 PM']+1 on that. The value will be in the age, condition and originality and the best way to preserve these (and therefore the value), would be to lock it away and not use it [/quote] +1 again I was GASsing for an old Fender. Having said that I did actually want to use it for gigs n' stuff so bought an MIA 2009 one instead for practically half the price , with case and all that guff thrown into the deal. Its actually a better bass than most of the old ones ive played, IMO. Although my singer's 75' P takes some beating, thats a stunningly good bass.
