Thanks for this great review, but it really looks like a 3-Color sunburst with the intermediate red tone.

strings?? I have a sweet 88 62RI Yellowed white with pepperoni guard and slab rosewood..

Does that have same pickups as the 50 s American original p????

I'm sitting here, looking out my front window waiting for the FedEx man to drop mine off. Same color too.

Would like to have an all solid GS Mini, with special Inlays, full gloss and a 44,5mm nut width^^.... than it would be perfect. Without it, its just very good^^.

Lightest Tele I've ever played!

Why do you show guitars? Who's in guitars?

Thanks Anthony

I love it ! I hope to have one soon!

Saving up for this exact model.

got one of these recenty, absolutely amazing bass, smooth as silk....however if it could have a fatter p, that will be cool

The '58 by a mile. A no contest.

As someone who took the Martin tour just once and came back with a project from the Guitar Maker's Connection I would LOVE to be a fly on the wall in the wood locker and the custom shop! That said, recently Driftwood Guitars out of Florida did a custom build with maple back and sides and a cedar top and it sounded great. I wonder how sinker redwood would pair with maple?

Hello and thank you for your video. Would you recommand this bass for playing more harder genre styles like Hard Rock and Metal?

This is about as classic P bass tone as you can get. Absolutely, gorgeous!

Thats how you do it!

That thing looks even better in person! I know that maple is not Martin's go to wood, but it's gorgeous and a lovely playing experience if people want something unique and special.

Interesting tone

Good morning Joe! That sounds terrific! It looks fantastic as well. Wonder what it would be with walnut deep body 12-fret? Always thinking as to what would go best with the next song. Thanks for the guitars I have from you, especially the Collings OM-41.

Such a pretty guitar

holy moly that's a pretty guitar!

To long between amp changeouts. Could not A,B,C the amps. Sorry

I used squire on more live gigs than fender it’s all bs! When people say you can’t use a squire live lol

🏆

woot! that huss & dalton is killer!

With shops like Empire and The Acoustic Shoppe, there is so much more you can get personalized service.

Got to go with the black and gold

Hi. Which one do you recommend. 224ce or 324ce. Thank you.

The 54 P is the true P sound! But don't buy an American. The quality like all American products is bad. Buy the Japanese one. Way cheaper and way better quality!

That bass shape would be perfect if it was made with 2 split coil pickups, like the later P bass or the J bass, especially with noiseless pickups.

The best stoner doom bass OD for a PBass in drop C.

It was named after an even bigger battleship!

Do they still make them??

One piece rosewood is where the pbass tone lives.

Excellent instrument. Thats a lifetime friend.

Both are beauties! Are the necks the same width/profile as the American Original 50"s P? Just curious...

It's like an improved Thunderbird

Both sound great. The 58 is a bit brighter. Between these two, I'd choose the 66. 👍🏻😎

Boss is best.

I would be happy with either one 😝

'58 😍

I have a 2013 Custom Shop 59 P and a Custom Shop LTD P-Special I bought from you guys about a month ago. The P-Special has the same 65-70 pickup as the 1966 in the video. I find the 59 has a very clear, articulate tone. While the 65-70 has a thicker, meatier tone.

Just brought one, I've had a dozen or so over the years, this is a keeper for me! (Along with my GS Mini)

58 all the way!

The '58 is the one. Some day.

The 58 sounds better to my ears

I can’t pick between this and the fender vintera 2 60s

Doing some homework; great demo buddy! Thanks!!!

What does "left of center " mean? Socialist vs communist? Really liked the 000. Thanks, Anthony.

I’m always looking for new music where I can focus on bass. The work in Tropical Feel is nice. Love those Martin guitars.
