You all know this one but then better and in Closet Classic.
It came with a rosewood fingerboard and a nice light used and old
finish.
They stamped Relic under the gold anodized pickguard for people who are trying to sell it as a original.
The tweedcase is poodle plushed I've never seen this one before.
The guys from Bass Central (Hi Perry) still miss this P-Bass because
it sounds so good.

What would you say?? It is a Closet Classic P-Bass which means that it is like if you find a nice bass on your Grandma's attic which has been in it's case all those years. Very nice finish.
It plays very well because the guys of Bass Central did a good job.
With UPS it came right on time and with no flaws.
Reliability/Durability

Well, you see..........it's a bit of a tank in stainless steel.
So it will last for 200 Years max.
Note: this bass is so light, I never had a more lighter bass than my
good old Hofner violin bass.

1st Fender:
Let's say nothing about them.
There are enough stories around to fill a book: i.e. The 60th aniversary bad-aftersales story. Still good guitars.....can you believe this?
2nd Bass Central
I can only tell you that Bass Central makes up for them.
Great service, nice people, fair prices and most important of all:
allways there when you phone ore mail them. They must have a some sort of a 2 hour reply guaranty.
