Fender MIA P Bass - old or new

[pjmuck]

Looking for a P bass, specifically with a rosewood fretboard. Can be a newer AM Std P or older model, but lighter weight (under 10lbs). Vintage is fine, but my intent is to find one that I can gig with often. There's tons of late 70's, boat anchor, maple board Ps out there, and that's not what I'm looking for. Lemme know if you've got one for sale or trade.

Thanks

Do you prefer rosewood for the look or tone?

[pjmuck]

Both. I already own a '73 maple neck P but this band I'm in now needs the old school thump of a rosewood P + flats. The flats on my '73 work too, but it's still a bit of an edgier, scratchier sound than I'm looking for. it's a tactile thing too, as rosewood + satin neck will feel different too.

Looking forward to hearing more.

I got a smokin deal on my 8.5 lb. 2011 AS P and I love it.

I'm very tentatively thinking about letting my 2015 built G&L Lb-100 go because I have a bad itch for another SB-2 or JB model.
It's bel-air green on alder with a rosewood board and possibly the fastest neck I've ever played.
