Thank you I'm really pleased with it :D .


I was playing my American P last night and thinking "this is all I need".

Simple but effective.

It is, until you walk into a music shop again. :P That's when the trouble starts. I have almost a whole room full of gear and I've known someone with over 200 guitars and amps piled to the ceiling. It can get crazy, that G.A.S.

:lol: No I've been thinking about this since last year, thinking how many basses I had let go of & how many bad buys I'd wasted money on. So I read a lot of reviews and watched loads of videos, and the American Standard Precision was getting rave reviews 8) . And I had come to the conclusion that all I needed was 1 bass & 1 amp, 1 pickup volume & tone. So I knew if I was going to do it properly, then it had to be an American Fender Precision. And I am very happy with mine. :D

I know what you mean about bad buys. Hindsight is always 20/20, that's for certain. I don't think you can go wrong with a good P-Bass, that's for sure. I wish I hadn't got rid of the one I had 20 odd years ago.

Maple neck and with a pick - nice work.

I am a fan of Ps. I have two J-Basses, which are nice enough to play, though thoroughly unsatisfying.

P-Basses have substance - you feel like you are playing a bass with a P-Bass.

Exactly if I had saved the money I spent on bad bass buys I would have had an American Precision years ago :lol: .

Your right when you have a P-Bass in your hands, you know it's going to do everything you want to do with it 8) .

Great, now I'm G.A.S.'n for a P-Bass again. :P I don't think that will happen for a long time, though. Still have to pay off a few other purchases that were made on gear.

Your bass looks great with that scratchplate 8) , plus the angle of the picture makes it look even better 8) .

You know, for some reason the interior of your case reminds me off Dracula's coffin, or something like that. Maybe it's that shade of red. My brain does weird crap like that sometimes. Maybe it was the Delysid from years ago? :P

Lucky dog! Great color, I want one bad! At first, thought about that exact one you got, but will probably go black. How does that neck feel?

If you're asking me, mine feels, and plays great. I'm more impressed with my Precision, than previous ones. luckman67 Would probably say the same for his P Bass.
