  • It's a Good Bass for a Price

    I got this to play with my church. I like the low thump. The P bass has more of a RnB sound, so if you like a more funk oriented bass, choose this one.

  • Awesome.

    Solid construction and it's well balanced. I had to set intonation, adjust the truss rod, and adjust pickup height. But that doesn't bother me. It's a good bass for the road and with some upgrades it could be a good studio instrument.

  • A classic for a reason

    This bass is used by professionals all the time for a reason. I tried 10 different guitars when deciding what to buy and none of them felt as comfortable as the P Bass. The tone is great and set up is perfect out of the box.
