New bass day, it's been a while.

Hi everyone, its been a while.

For the past few years I've been over to the darkside playing guitar in a couple of bands, and in my current band we went to record an Ep but due to this damn Covid-19 we're still waiting for the tracks to be mixed and mastered.

The recording was going great and everyone bought their A-game and knocked the recording out of the park apart from the bassist who despite having played the chosen songs for 6 months really blew it, despite offering him help and encouragement.

Anyway..... to cut a long story short I ended up having to track all the bass in an hour (The other guy took 4 hrs and only got 20 seconds recorded which was out of time and also the wrong notes) so time was of the essence and as we couldn't book anymore sessions for 2 months due to being fully booked, it fell on me to lay down the tracks as the bassist turned around and said he wasn't ready to record......thanks for the heads up!

After all was said and done, I've stitched myself up and have found myself back on bass which, after a good long break feels really good and I couldn't be happier!

So after looking about at what the used bass prices were (It's been a while) I ended up finding and buying a 2001 Fender American Precision Bass in Inca Silver with a maple neck and I think its one of the best sounding P-basses I've played/owned.

I need to spend more time with the neck profile as I find it a little chunkier than I'd like however I may end up trading out the neck for a Us Jazz bass neck....if anyone is after a US Precision neck and want to trade me their Jazz neck, please get in touch.

I'm also thinking about putting a black scratch plate on it aswell.

Enough blabbing, here is the new addition:

There this for sale I here, nothing to do with me  

 

Thanks for the link but I'm after an American Jazz Standard one as I love the profile of it, however a maple board with black blocks and binding has got me thinking though.
