Well ya either like em or hate em - not getting into that argument but hey, here it is, a sordid amalgamation of pawn shop, craigslist, and ebay finds all put together....and it actually is a pretty kick ass rock/blues bass....it is just difficult for me to play it vs the sadowsky and roscoe...i guess ive aged. (at least chronologically)
The dirt;
1999 USA Fender Hot Rod body, string thru - reliced, both real and induced.
Early 80's MIJ Jazz Bass Neck (KILLER neck - a pawn shop find - matches my 80s MIJ jazz bass - these are great necks!)
DiMarzio P/J Combo pickups
Tone Styler Tone Knob
Added Thumb rest and Ashtray
Currently strung reversed - will reset and setup with flats or rounds if need be.
$550 obo.

Re: Fender P/J Frankenbass
Is the body alder or ash?
Re: Fender P/J Frankenbass
No idea of body wood...fender experts weigh in!
Re: Fender P/J Frankenbass
Looks like ash

Re: Fender P/J Frankenbass
The obligatory what is the body wood question has been asked. Let me add three more, if you don't mind. What does it weigh? Are you looking at any trade bait? Where is your location? Thanks in advance. Cheers.
Re: Fender P/J Frankenbass
Body is low 9s on the bathroom scale. Trades would be light mij or USA p basses only.
I am outside Philly.

Re: Fender P/J Frankenbass
Is this bass still available?
Re: Fender P/J Frankenbass
Yep. Lots of interest but no solid commitment.
