Members misterhinkydink Posted March 6, 2009 Members Share Posted March 6, 2009 It looks like agave blue not sonic blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Emprov Posted March 6, 2009 Members Share Posted March 6, 2009 Anytime someone comes onto this forum asking if they should buy a bass, and it's not hugely over priced, the answer is always going to be yes. Let us know how you like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dDigitalPimp Posted March 6, 2009 Members Share Posted March 6, 2009 yes, esp. because fender raised all of their MIM prices to over $600 USD for a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Poltergeist Posted March 6, 2009 Members Share Posted March 6, 2009 yeah, you should always try to get him to lower the price a bit, but that's a good price! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members hawkhuff Posted March 6, 2009 Members Share Posted March 6, 2009 Mint-condish Mexi P-Bass, Sonic Blue (gorgeous if you ask me). $250 CDN. Should I? Have you played it? That's a big big factor when buying a MIM Fender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members punkicidal Posted March 6, 2009 Author Members Share Posted March 6, 2009 yeah, you should always try to get him to lower the price a bit, but that's a good price! I'm going to email him and be like "i've got $200 cash in pocket, deal?" I already have a Squier P-Bass Special, and I love the sound of it, but I hate the jazz pickup. This is the first "real" Fender I'll be owning, and I was gonna go for the Squier Classic Vibe '60's P in Sonic Blue, but I saw this and figured, for $50 cheaper, I'd get a real Fender.

Members sludgebass69 Posted March 6, 2009 Members Share Posted March 6, 2009 If it plays good and fits you well, then hell yes. Really it could be the only bass you ever need.........if it wasn't for that evil condition know as G.A.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just have to wait till I get paid, then I'm going to email him and be like "I wanna come play it" He lives on the other side of the city, so it's not exactly some where I can walk, and I'm broke-assed, so bus'ing it is a no-go right now haha.. If it feels anything like my P-Bass Special, I'll love it.. I've always loved P's.. And the SD 1/4 lb'ers sound {censored}ing TITS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Reverend179 Posted March 6, 2009 Members Share Posted March 6, 2009 Quarter Pounder and a Badass Bridge and you're done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members punkicidal Posted March 6, 2009 Author Members Share Posted March 6, 2009 Any reason for the BadAss bridge? Out of the 12 years I've been playing bass, I've seen them everywhere, but never really saw/heard the advantages of one. My P currently is stock and I have no problems with it.

Members Poltergeist Posted March 6, 2009 Members Share Posted March 6, 2009 they're high-mass bridges, they give you a better tone... the Gotoh bridges are great too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of the 12 years I've been playing bass, I've seen them everywhere, but never really saw/heard the advantages of one.My P currently is stock and I have no problems with it. Higher mass, ostensibly more sustain and more harmonic content due to better coupling. I just know I like how they feel on my hands, the adjustments are more precise, and they're just sturdier all in all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are fixes for it like Locktite, but a better bridge is nice if you can afford it. I like to replace the plastic nut with a bone nut too.
