Oopsdabassist Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Not sure if this one even counts, it used to be a PJ Squier, my 1st bass as it happens, I refinished the body and converted it to a twin Jazz pickup with a Kiogon VBT loom and ironstone pickups and a new pickguard from @TimAl Quite pleased with the result and the tone is fun to play with given I like my P tones normally! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha!....I'll take that, had a jazz bass a few years back, liked the sound and the slim neck, but hated the body shape, so this little project was quite exciting for me 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MungoBass Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 I have recently acquired this 2003 AVRI 62 P complete with unopened covers, lead and manuals. It is in very nice condition and sounds lovely with a lightly used set of La Bella LTFs. I think it may stay with me for a while..... 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was 3-tone sunburst, but is now sonic blue. The picture doesn't pick up the true colour, it's a fair bit lighter in real life. It's got a light relic finish, similar to the Fender Journeyman CS relics. Specs are: a Fender MIJ 70s P body, Fender Road Worn 50s P neck, Creamery Classic '58 pickup, Fender anodised aluminium pickguard, ashtrays, knobs, and tugbar, Squier JV reverse gear tuners, Hosco threaded saddle bridge, and Gotoh strap buttons, string tree, and neck plate. A wee update on my bitsa P; I didn't get on with the Road Worn neck so when @Studio GC put his Classic 50s Precision neck up in the Marketplace earlier in the week, I snapped it up. I know I'm probably in the minority, but I prefer glossy necks to satin. It's also a better fit in the pocket than the Road Worn, so nice and snug now. The gold Fender anodised aluminium pickguard didn't quite fit round the heel so it's got my old JV pickguard on there as a temporary measure while I decide what to put on it, though I don't hate it as it is now. As ever, the true colour is hard to capture in photos, it's still much more pale than the pictures suggest ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Edited October 7, 2023 by Jono Bolton 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassman1974 Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 Yeah, I'm pleased with this tort guard that I just added. Probably the 4 or 5th colour this bass has had. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
