Played one of the 50's P's last night. It was pretty cool, but the clearcoat on the neck was pretty sticky.
Also, I couldn't really plant my thumb, because of the uncovered pickup.
Sounded cool, though.

Are the "competition" stripes part of the finish or are they removable?

Hmmmm... I haven't seen a Mustang Bass with a maple neck myself.
There's the actual Fender one here:
Looks real cool. Made in Japan, which is a super-plus. I wonder if it would be worth it to do that instead of a big ass P-Bass... I must admit it's way more comfortable for me with my 30" Hofner. It would be neat to have the grind of the P-Bass with the scale of the Hofner.

No. Clear coat is on top of them.

Drag. That's the only part I'd have a hard time coping with visually.
