New Fender Player II Modified range launched

[Linus27]

I'm a big Fender fan and have and have had some killer basses over my time. I'm on the lookout for a backup to my Japanese Fender 60's Classic Precision and will probably buy the Harvest Green PJ. Green is my favorite colour and I adore the look of this bass, it is the perfect bass for me aesthetically so thank you Fender for making it. I'm not a fan of active basses though so I'll likely just use it in passive mode and I may even gut it and fit Barts to it.

I saw some Barts listed (their 8S P-Bass set) for over £200 yesterday. Maybe a blip, or symptomatic of tariff-geddon.

Yeah that is way over priced, Bass Direct has them for £122.

Allparts have them at the higher price: https://allparts.uk.com/products/bartolini-split-pickup-for-p-bass-8s?srsltid=AfmBOoqwAaaFZhkCgdLlnnht9EEJv411mRxHcxLX8PYT5sQBaiQuy1sa

 

Maybe wait and see if they sell out at Bass Direct and then come back at a higher price!

£262 for a Bart P? I could buy a Monty's P and have a semi-extravagant hour out in Cheltenham with Mr Monty himself for that money. 

 

Christmas Eve!!!

Nice one centurion…

A friend of mine told me today he'd just ordered one of these, and was going to pick it up in the next few days; black P, maple board version. I think I might give it a try when he gets it as he offered and wants to hear it through my old Peavey rig. He's a young guy but has old man tastes, just not this old man's taste.
