This is a lovely lightweight p bass, I don't have proper luggage scales but I think it comes in at about 6lb14oz. 

 

I replaced the pickups with some Fender late 50's pickups which give a classic p bass tone. I shielded it with copper tape when I did this for good measure.

 

It's all working fine, there is a slight dint in the back of the neck around fret 1.5, and a very fine and a scratch there too: I've tried to photograph these, but I don't notice them when playing.

 

Thankfully this is the Mike Dirnt (green day) version that only has the little star on the back plate. I can also confirm that I have successfully played songs not written and performed by Green Day on this bass.
