Gave up on the relic P bass...
As much as I wanted one, they were all pretty much mail order. While I guess they are awesome, I have this thing about buying before I feel/play it.
Anyway, I went a different direction and bought this yesterday...
2008 Lakland Skyline "Duck Dunn" signature series. (pronounced "Lake land...just found that out myself) Classic P bass sound with a Jazz bass neck for all you P bass neck haters (Brandon)

Re: Gave up on the relic P bass...
The weird thing I always wondered about was these builders who are basically trying to look like Fenders but cost MORE than a Fender. I mean, I understand cheapies trying to cop Fender styles, but high-end stuff?PABassPlayer wrote:As much as I wanted one, they were all pretty much mail order.

Either way, A P with a Jazz neck would be kind of interesting. There are only like a handful of things I'd ever need a P sound on though. I should just get a cheap Squier P for those situations.

Re: Gave up on the relic P bass...
PFloyd, this really has a wider range of tone than my standard P bass has, which is one of the reasons I bought it. As far as price goes, the Skyline series go for 50.00 less than a USA P or J Standard (Paid $1049.00). My band is doing some Clash, Sex Pistols and 80's rock that I need a crisper twang sound that lacks with the P, the Lakland fits the bill nicely.Pfl?yd wrote:The weird thing I always wondered about was these builders who are basically trying to look like Fenders but cost MORE than a Fender.

Why are you in here? You play no instrument. And since you are, allow me to add that we have a little unspoken rule here. We keep all of our bullshit from the other forums out of this one. Have a little respect.
