Ou7shined Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Kind of nice (for a red bass ). Might just be the pics but that looks like one helluva thin neck like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldGit Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Yeah I've seen a few of these JP-90s come up on eBay over the last few years. One of those "let's modernise the P bass" ideas they tried a few times ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stingray5 Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I'd prefer the sp to have been designed to finish nearer the neck so they could have then separated the pups a little more. The front headstock pic looks a bit compressed/stretched(?). The neck looks pretty regular in the other shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
