I believe that the AVS and especially the CS P basses are definitely a cut above. However, I prefer the MIM basses to the AS and new generation HWY1 P's. That's a personal preference, though. The consistency of the AS P basses is pretty amazing, even though I've yet to find one I've cared for. They all play, feel and sound very similar (other then the obvious differences ie: maple vs rosewood, ash vs alder). Fit and finish is always very nice.

My advice is that if you've got the money to be looking at an AS P, you might want to look at an AVS 57' or 62' aswell. Might cost you a few hundred more, but it's worth it.
