Yes, welcome ET - that's a fantastic looking Precision. I'm looking forward to hearing how it plays/sounds when you get it. The early eighties were an interesting time for offshoot instruments like the Specials and Elites. Fender were forced to introduce preamps and other additions when other makers suddenly burst into the eighties with more 'up-front' powerful basses.

Thanks for the link Geek99. I just saw a link to one on Reverb that sold for 150 just a few months ago, which seems a good price for something so rare. Could double for playing horseshoes with too. -

Kahler-made add-on to increase sustain and possibly reduce neck-dive. Never fitted by fender from what I read https://www.ultimate-guitar.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1584071 that’s why you’re not seeing it in marketing from the time. Quite rare apparently -

These are colloquially known as "claw" bridges, try using that as a search term. I don't know a great deal about them but from what I understand they're quite rare and sought after. I don't think they were produced for very long. -
Never heard of the builder before but I can see me doing some research, that's a great looking bass! Lime green metallic looks a lot better than it sounds. How did you get on with the pickup?
