andydye Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 (edited) [s]For Sale, my Cabronita P Bass, bought recently as an experiment in whether I want to go back to a p bass and the answer is yes but I'm gunning for a USA p bass I've just seen in a local shop gas strikes again!! In excellent condition, just one tiny indentation on the back of the bass, the neck is lovely to play and the fidelitron pickup gives a pbass like sound but with a tad more humbucker honk to it...v cool, it also looks freakin' awesome!! It's black, with a white pickguard and a maple neck, not a sticky maple neck, a nice non-sticky maple neck, really good to play but my heart lies with a USA p that I met in a guitar shop last week... Pics are currently 'borrowed' from the previous owner, I'll do my own asap...

[/quote] yes matey, it's got a padded fender'like gig bag, no name on it but the padding is pretty good, I've got plenty of bubble wrap and a good box for it too so shipping would be no problem (within the uk). cheers A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassbiscuits Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Hi Andy - I can't figure out what these sound like exactly - can you shed some light? The two main demos on Youtube both seem to have quite an overdriven sound - is that how the bass sounds when you dig in then? Or is the guy using some distortion. Love the look - just can't figure out how they sound! I play a regular P bass now so kinda thought it would be roughly the same ballpark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Hiya matey, the sound is very similar to a p mostly due to the pup location I think but is slightly more humbucker-y in it's mid range without the humbucker output, I've got a recording of a band practice last week where I was playing it through a LMIII head and my EAD FN212 cab with no fx, I'll try to put it on soundcloud and provide a link, the intro to the song we were writing is the bass played with a pick and gives the sort of sound I'm talking about, the other songs from that week were fingerstyle and sounded very p like indeed.
