Fender Highway One P Bass Midnight Wine 

This is a good basic," Assenbled in USA" bass

The bass arrived with a very good "out of the box" playability, it was strung with a good set of roundwounds, that are pretty flexible, has the so called hot-rodded/modified bridge

The assembly/fitting was good

All in all a very good basic bass

The price point of this bass is excellent, for an American assembled bass

I purchased this bass as a platform to upgrade it, the neck is very comfortable,and the bass is some what lite weight

What I plan to do to this bass is:

1. Upgrade the Tuners to Hipshot HB7's

2. Change out the pick-guard. to a brown tortoise ... looks better than the plain white ...IMHO

3. Upgrade the pick-up to Bill Lawrence's P-46 or Fender's Original 62's ... haven't decided yet

4. Aquire a hardshell/SKB type case ...gig bags just don't protect an instrument ... IMHO

Some people will say, why don't you just save and get the higher priced bass? well ...spending a $1000.00+  on a bass, is just not in the cards ... I got a good basic bass that I can upgrade at my leisure, and not break the budget!!

Excellant- simple, pure, and stands the test of time. all of the elctronics/ bridge are solid.

Nothing has broken, never had ANY problems.

Professional Bass for half the cost!

An amazing bass thtat stands the test of time throuh he years. I would recomend it to anyone who is looking to upgrade to a professional rig.

the P-bass has minimal features by definition. It doesn't need more.

No issues. This bass is well made for a production instrument. I haven't touched a thing.

I own too many basses, including three Cirrus basses, and a Roscoe Beck IV. I won this P-bass in a raffle about three months ago, and it very quickly moved to center stage. This is my first straight P, and I can't get over how easily it plays and the vivid sonic charactistics of it. It has sufficient range to handle everything I play with a quick turn of the single tone knob. 

I've had this bass for a few months now and its been really nice so far. I like the combination of vintage/modern p bass. I have the sunburst, it has a nice flat vintage look and classic sound plus you can see the woodgrain in the neck and body. This is a nice american made instrument but needs a good setup(the action on mine is still pretty high). I've only had to tune the bass a couple times in the months that I've had it. The modern neck is really smooth and comfortable to play. Also, the graphite support rods in the neck are a big plus to me. The pickup is decent but i could see upgrading it in the future. The badass bridge is a good fit for this bass in my opinion. The nitro finish is thin and flat but it does look cool. I have two small chips on top of the body that were probably caused by the plastic piece from my strap. To me its not a big deal but i guess its just personal preference when it comes to the finish. The greasebucket tone circuit works for me. It's basically volume and tone on or tone off, there isnt much in between. Personally, i really like the simplicity of the p bass. If you want more options in tone i would say get a jazz bass. You cant go wrong either way.

I dont yet own this bass but plan to soon. Ive played 4 or 5 times in my local store. sounds great, plays great, and is simple. i love the two knob simplicity and the paint looks good. i must say however that each time i go in to play it seems to have picked up a new scratch. i dont think the paint is very thick but for the price i can just look over that part. looks like a goot simple bass ant a good price. The real seller is that is made here in the USA!
