Just finished assembly and setup.

1978 Fender A-width P maple neck
MJT lightweight alder body (4lbs. 5oz)
Tonerider "The Duke" overwound pickup
Total of $1,288 in parts
7lbs. 12oz

This is the third bass I'm building this way. I love 70s P's but hate the weight, so I'm pairing a nice 70s Fender neck with the lightest body I can get from Mark Jenny. Very happy with the results.

Tha one looks really cool and it matches the garden chairs well. The cat doesn't seem impressed, though.

Good looking bass, and lovely weight!!

I have a 1963 P and it's one of the lightest basses I own.
