[Studio GC]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I purchased this bass because it had plenty of bumps and bruises on it and wanted a nitro P bass. When I purchased the bass it had the urethane fiesta red finish...which I don't like the feel of. What I do love are the 50's classic road worn P basses...but they are way too much money for me. So I made my own nitro Classic 50's P bass and knew if I refinished with two light coats of nitro it would soon enough get to mojo city with my own playing. It's not there yet, but hopefully the next owner of the bass will get it there.[/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]So, I stripped off the urethane finish and refinished the bass with two light coats of Fiesta Red Nitro. There are certainly imperfections in the body from removing the old finish, but since I was going for a road worn look I didn't really care as this was meant as a players bass (as you can see from the chunk taken out of the headstock).[/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The great thing about this bass is the fact it now "rings" so much more acoustically which I believe contributes to it's great tone. That and the fact the neck fits in the neck pocket very snugly. Love that in a bass.[/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I also aged the hardware which I think looks pretty darn good.[/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The control cavity has been shielded with copper foil and it has the original pickups and electronics. Comes with original gig bag that has one broken zipper on the smallest pocket.[/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Comes strung with .105 d'Addario Chromes which by law should be the only strings allowed on a bass like this. Sounds so fantastic.[/font][/color]
