Dibs??😂

Looking out for a “mocha” p from the 70s. Current P bass is a G&L, very different vibe, I think.

I think that green one would sound better with strings, or not

I'd put good money on this being superb. My ESP Vintage 4 has done me no wrong but I am considering a change...

New pbass project, all parts bits and a Serek basses B90 pickup. It’s a p90 for bass, all hot and honky . Push pull for series / parallel on the pup
I’m pretty stoked

Yeah, Jazz neck from Allparts, badass bridge and schaller tuners- the big geared ones. Thomastik flats and the lazenB 90 pickup, pretty sweet.
Serek normal only do short scale basses , but this one is made from some full templates they had left over
