I've owned this good old Squier 5 string P-Bass for over 9 years and I love it. I was planning on refinishing and upgrading it for many years now.
My good mate, Andy Ferris (TheGuitarGeek) borrowed it and secretly stripped the thick poly finish off. So I had no other choice: I had to start this project right now! haha!
This time I'm relicing the shell pink over sunburst finish on the p-bass.
