Listen to the different tones you can get from this bass: 4:53

What's great about building your own is not necessarily saving a lot of money, but rather getting exactly what you want. For the "under $500" crowd; I put together a J bass with a Squier body (black), jazz neck and a loaded Geddy Lee pickguard. I put on Rotosound swing '66 strings and it is the sound I expected and hoped for. The bass you built here is fantastic in sound and looks (love the classic rosewood neck) and I'm sure that I will do a P Bass someday and I will keep the choices you made here in mind.

I’m really looking into this because I love fender P basses, but the hardware has always been lacking imo. I love my hip shot tuners and bridge on my Carvin and I would need them on a P bass for my own sanity.

[@kuntakinte1303]

thats a badass looking bass sir. that decal looks like a solid job, you cant tell that its a decal at all. Did you do the decal job or a luthier?

[@OnlineBassCourses]

Thank you. It looks good precisely because I didn’t do it! Matt from Monty’s Guitars in London did it.

[@Crescent_Audio]

Lovely black p bass, I dig the black hardware and the tone you’re getting out of that bare knuckles!

[@OnlineBassCourses]

Thanks Nick! I had to sell it as I moved across the world but it was a great bass. I'm going to do a new studio tour soon with my current rotation...

[@Crescent_Audio]

Online Bass Courses I’ll be looking forward to it, cheers!

[@drewlewis9412]

Dan, how’s the neck profile on this P Bass neck? Chunky enough? Great look and tone

[@OnlineBassCourses]

Yes - probably too chunky for me (I don’t actually own this bass anymore).

[@drewlewis9412]

@@OnlineBassCourses thank you very much! I have one on the way.

[@Hexspa]

How you like those Neumanns

[@OnlineBassCourses]

They work perfectly fine for my needs!

[@Hexspa]

Thanks for your reply - that's good to hear. I've got some KH 80 or maybe Genelec 8320 on my radar. Cheers.@@OnlineBassCourses

[@OnlineBassCourses]

Enjoy!

[@cperch37]

Very nice! Think i will get some flats.

[@OnlineBassCourses]

Can't go wrong!

[@cperch37]

Thinking of building one myself, how did you get the logos for the headstock?

[@trevorblair5552]

Nice tone! 👍🏾

[@OnlineBassCourses]

Not bad for a home made bass!

[@trevorblair5552]

Online Bass Courses I have a P-bass Daphne blue that was all parts has a push/pull on the tone for single coil slap tones. 👍🏾

[@OnlineBassCourses]

@@trevorblair5552 Nice. That's a cool upgrade. And a great color!
