    • Ready and rock steady.
Color: Candy Apple Red Style: Pau Ferro Fingerboard Pattern: Bass Only Configuration: Right-Handed
Came half a week ahead of schedule. It came the morning of my gig and I wasn’t expecting to have it so soon, but it sounded great almost right outta the box. It was almost in tune too. Great tone for the show, even with the original strings. No buzz and great feel to play. The band had tons of compliments, as well as people coming to me after the show. It’s looks great and has the sound to match. ... show more

    • Overall, great, but a few weak points.
Color: Black Style: Pau Ferro Fingerboard Pattern: Bass Only Configuration: Right-Handed
I'd heard mixed things about the old MiM Fenders, but I knew they'd stepped it up and made the Player Series great instruments, so I decided to try one out. Out of the box, it played fine and would be a solid instrument for many gigging musicians after a string change and a setup (which I recommend on every new guitar). I was expecting the electronics to be sub-par, but the pickup sounds pretty great so far. I'll play it alongside my other basses to see if upgraded electronics are needed. What I think does need upgrading is the hardware. The bridge is the standard Fender vintage bridge. After removing it, the pieces felt flimsy and cheap. I'm not sure what effect that has on tone, but I prefer high-mass bridges over the vintage-style bridges, so I swapped mine out with a Fender high-mass that I got on Amazon for around $60. The notes all sounds much bigger and there's more sustain, although there's a bit less of the woody sound you get since the bigger bridge is absorbing more of the vibrations and leaving less for the wood. I highly recommend a bridge upgrade, if not now then somewhere down the road, but the stock bridge will be fine for many players to start with. Note that, if you change the bridge, you will need a setup. This is something you can do yourself with the right know-how and a few tools (some of which come with the guitar and bridge). It honestly took me a while to be comfortable with anything other than small adjustments, so this is actually my first full setup, and it's going great. The tuners also felt a bit cheap. I haven't encountered any issues with staying in tune yet, but that's a possibility with cheaper tuners—just take that with a piece of salt, as I haven't experienced it yet. I happen to have some nice Hipshot tuners on an old bass that I'm not using anymore that I want to swap in, but I didn't feel comfortable doing myself. I'll have it professionally done somewhere down the road. I put flatwounds (D'Addario Chromes) on the bass and played on it with the upgraded bridge. It has a great vintage tone that P basses are known for, good for a wide range of music from Motown to punk rock to indie folk rock. Sounds smooth, but there's enough power to drive upbeat songs. You don't get the articulation of a jazz bass, but this can fill a room in a way that those have trouble. I find myself reaching for my jazz basses when the band is small and I need a lot of articulation. For larger bands or sets where I just need to fill out the bottom end powerfully, this P bass is what I will be reaching for. This bass is totally playable and giggable without upgrades, but those upgrades would make this a 5-star bass. If you end up being less than 100% happy with the sound, you can easily swap in different after-market pickups (or pay a professional) to change or upgrade the sound to your liking. That's what I love about Fenders: they're so easy to modify. I actually got mine used from Amazon Warehouse, and, while the packaging was pretty beat up, the bass itself was in pristine condition with no cosmetic flaws. Plastic wrap still on the pickguard and everything. If you're looking for a nice bass that's not going to break the bank, this is a solid bass. There's a reason the Fender Precision bass is the most popular bass in recording and you'll find one in just about any studio in America. There are some flashier options like the Stingray that really shine in certain situations, but the humble P bass will do at least pretty well in just about any situation. ... show more

    • Fender Player P Bass
Color: 3-Color Sunburst Style: Maple Fingerboard Pattern: Bass Only Configuration: Right-Handed
Bought the sunburst body / maple fretboard combo. Pros: - Fit and finish is nearly perfect. Set up out of the box wasn't bad. Intonation was pretty close. Only some minor tweaking of the truss rod needed and action was perfect. - Sounds great! Classic P bass sound and there is a lot of range in the tone knob. Cons: - Not shielded very well... There's a little bit of hum when your hands aren't touching the strings. - Nothing to with the bass itself, but the pictures attached to the listing show a gig bag. The listing itself does NOT mention that a gig bag is included and the bass was shipped without it. The bag pictured looked to be cheap / low quality anyway, so this saved me the trouble of throwing it away. Just thought it was worth mentioning. Overall, very pleased with this purchase. ... show more

    • How sweet the Buttercream! Buy this baby.
Color: Buttercream Style: Maple Fingerboard Pattern: Bass Only Configuration: Right-Handed
I am an average bass player, owing 12 basses now. This buttercream FAR surpasses my expectations. Quality build: a 10. The neck is thin, permitting incredibly easy movement up and down it. The craftsmanship of the bass is just beautiful. The maple neck, front and back, is something you must see in person. The P-Bass pickups are typical, and nothing hugely special, but they pound out highs and lows. The tuning is also typical. The volume and tone pots are above average and turn tightly/smartly and smoothly. I did change out the strings to nylon tapewound and get a deeper "Motown-like" sound. The buttercream body is just amazingly beautiful. The bass is actually light in weight, compared to a Yamaha 500 or Schecter series, both of which I'm comparing this bass to. The turning keys are high quality-open design, and function tightly as well. The bridge is a standard P-Bass bridge, and it functions tightly as well. It's quality is very good. The finish on the body (buttercream) is beautifully lacquered, with obviously many coats applied to give it a deep luster. The fretboard is also well lacquered and just beautiful. The combination of maple for the neck compliments the buttercream body; oh man, this is one beautiful instrument. My fretting hand glided effortlessly up and down the fretboard. I would have expected a bass of this high quality to sell for a thousand, so the price is a steal. The bass arrived so quickly I was blown away. Now: one word of caution: My bass arrived in perfect condition, but I view I was very fortunate. The cardboard box it was shipped in had zero padding inside for the bass (IE, bubblewrap, etc. ), If the gorilla's at the distribution centers would have tossed this around, the bass would likely have been heavily damaged around both the neck and body. Otherwise, this bass is simply and completely at the top of the chart. It sounds incredible, is extremely of high quality craftsmanship, arrived lickety-split, and I am one happy camper to recommend it to you completely. Hats off and a big thank you to Cream City Music in Wisconsin. You guys built a tremendous bass. Thanks all. ... show more
