One thing P-Basses have which other basses lack is simpicity. There is no elaborate active circuitry, preamps, batteries, EQ controls and the like. It's just a single pickup, volume tone and jack. That also makes them easier to mod.
P bass is all I know. I started with a squire 60s P that was great at the time but mediocre compared to my Fender vintera I 50s p bass, I got a good price for it right before the vintera II came out. That single bass has given me the sounds I want, and I don't think I could bring myself to use anything else, although I do want to try a jazz or stingray at some point.
You are correct! They do have set screws in them, however they don't sit 100% perfect on the shaft and with enough use come loose. I've had this happen twice after using the bass a ton. I've started carrying a small flathead screwdriver because of it... However I have heard some locktight does solve the issue so it's far from a deal breaker.
So nobody has claimed their upright yet I see 🤔. That's convenient for you. I would also suggest your videos would sound more adult-like if you didn't drop the f-bomb all the time? I'm not a square or anything but you want to cater to all demographics, don't you? Just some constructive criticism. Buttercream is one of my favorite as well
Agree on the language. Lose the naughty words and let more of the unique and attractive personality come through. I've seen other channels suffer because of this (I'm thinking of a particular luthier). It's hard to share a video full of great stuff with someone else, especially a younger player, when it's got rough language in it. The Floof perspective is much like many bass players and not like other TH-camrs in that Floof doesn't have an unlimited budget. He thinks about, "What if I have to sell this later?", "How can I get the most quality and flexibility for my money" etc. Other toobers mention this but Floof is living it (at this time). More Floof, less F*** and S***. Great stuff Floof. All the best to you!

Own that bass, too. Swapped the pickup for a 60s Aguilar and the tuners for Hipshots, love it 😁
Like the script, very entertaining and interesting.
Thank you, I will slowly get better at not looking like Floof - The Ipad Kid

Stingrays are great with flats.
Agreed!@@estebanb7166
Boring in the bass world is generally good (at least on the recording side of things & working with producers & artists).
Are my eyes deceiving me or do those knobs that are loose have set screws in them?
