Rest assured that any changes that Graham ( early adopter and pioneer of the 5 string!) has made will have been well executed/ well thought out and will have improved on the original bass. As ever, very fairly priced...I got great use out of the G&L I bought from Graham prior to switching to short scale, GLWTS

Oh my.... I've wet myself.

Something I was putting together as a backup but ended up with something else…… Slab Precision 66 type body. The paint is thin and not the best finish but not embarrassing. I didn’t paint it, it was like that when I bought it from here. It’s fine when it’s dressed up though. The neck pocket is bit oversized but when I fitted the neck (that I bought from here separately) , the holes lined up perfectly. I presume they are drilled for a standard Fender neck fitting. The neck is quite nice. It has Fender decals but it’s not a Fender. The decals have also been lacquered over. It has black Schaller tuners and a Geddy Lee neck plate. I think someone was building a Geddy at some point. The pups are Fender. They came out of a Mex Deluxe I believe. i was going to change the harness as it sometimes makes a crackle noise, not all the time, just now and again. Never got round to it as it’s so infrequent. Plays well enough and the neck is quite skinny. I haven’t weighed it but I would say it’s between 8-8 1/2 pounds. It could be a lot nicer with a bit of tlc but I’m not going to use it now and thought I may as well pass it on to someone. Collection and trial much preferred but I will post if the buyer arranges their own courier. I’ll throw in an old Gator case to ship it in. It’s seen better days so don’t think you are getting a posh new one 🤣 It’s a freebie!

I owned the BP1 Compact but didn't like the tone as much as its big brother. The compact has a very different tone with a significant bump in the upper mids.

A lot of pedal for not much money.

I would be interested in the actual weight.

1983 Fender Squier JV Precision in black Original pickups have been changed out for Seymour Duncans by the previous owner New chrome knobs Weight is 4.0 Kg's which is just perfect Nut width is 42.5mm Body in great shape with some play wear and a few dings but nothing drastic Frets have plenty of life left, back of the neck is super smooth with no dings, nice and straight, truss ros works as it should The pickups sound great and in my opinion are much better that the stock ones, These Squiers are brilliant bass's and very much sought after I have priced this fairly given the changes..Price to include delivery to th UK Any question please fire away

Aargh I sold mine and still regret it. Sorry to hear about your situation. Amazing preamp.

Great basses. I traded my black XL2A a while back to a fellow basschatter in return for a Yamaha BB5000. I still have my white XL2 and will never part with it. Great travel bass too, not just because of size, but because they just stay in tune. CB

You thought about going the BP1 Compact route?
