Great budget P Bass

I got this bass in 2014; ive gigged with it and play it regularly at home. I replaced the pickups with EMG Geezer Butler series pickups, i also replaced the bridge with a hipshot hi-mass bridge. It is great for playing rock but is still versatile enough to play other genres. Even with the factory Wilkinson pickups it still sounded great but i wanted it to have a little more bite, and as a big Sabbath fan i went with the signature EMG pickups. This bass is fairly comfortable to play. It feels/plays very similar to my MIM Fender JB and Jaguar basses. Im not sure how easy it is to come by these but if your looking for a budget quality P Bass, this bass is definitely a good choice.

Great instrument for small budget!

I use this great instrument live and in my homestudio aswell. It's easy to play and stays in tune. I replaced the pickup with a seymour duncan quarter pounder so it sounds even better than before! Tuning: Drop C/ D Standart

My main player now

This is a wonderful super light bass. The neck profile is classic P Bass so it sits in the hand wonderfully. The tone is great and I don't have to go replacing the pickups anytime. Alnico 5 Wilkinson pickups just sound right with my 77 Roto rounds on it. Absolute pleasure to play.
