The new version is c. £350 (c/w bluetooth) and this original one was £200+ when new. 48 x 40 x 30 cm and c. 17kg. Has handle + castors; and excellent side handles. Mic/s 1 & 2 + Level, Line-in (for aux/phone etc.) + Level, Bass & Treble Boost (EQ), Master Volume. Uses GS12 V7Ah battery (lasts ages but available on ebay etc. if future replacement required). + it's also OK as a portable (or AC/fixed) practice amp (really useful if 'meeting-up' to test a bass)

Can I ask a question about it?

Here is my Mexican Fender Precision that I have upgraded from stock (info below). I purchased this second hand locally to me but it has been barely used. It is a standard 2022 Mexican Player Precision as its base and the serial is available on the official lookup. Firstly the bass has been given a professional set up and once over by one of the best in Staffordshire. The neck / truss rod fully adjusted and it now has a nice mid-low action that is great for fingers and pick. At the same time the pickups were upgraded to Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounders. These give it that significant thump that you know and love. Additionally, the stock wiring loom was swapped out for a Bloodstone Guitarworks bass loom which has significantly improved the tone. I have also added a vintage style tortoiseshell pickguard to complement the lovely polar white finish. Finally I added a brand new set of Fender 105 nickelwound strings. As you can see from the pictures, the maple fretboard has a lovely flame to it and it is a standard C shape neck with 41.3mm nut. All hardware is in great condition as the photos show. There is a slight ding on the lower part of the body that you can see in the pictures, this was in place when I purchased it and a very quick, but tidy, patch job has been done in white. It genuinely looks a lot worse in the pictures than in real life. There's also two very very light scratches on the rear in the buckle rash region, only a centimetre or so in length and barely noticeable unless you catch the light perfectly. Weight on the bathroom scales is 8lb 6oz. No case supplied with this one. This is the perfect rock / punk bass in waiting. I'm happy to supply more pics if needed or answer any questions. Can also DM you a recording of it being played. I'm based just a few minutes from Junction 10 of the M6 (Walsall / Wolverhampton) and collection is preferred but I'm willing to travel a reasonable distance and maybe meet halfway. Happy for you to test it out on my practice amp at my place too. Not really looking to mail this as no case but DM me if you think you have a plan. Cheers.

This fantastic bitsa bass was purchased off a fellow Basschatter a number of months ago but I have further enhanced it as you will see below. For complete transparency, the original advert is linked below. Gunnar did a great job in the build but when I received it I decided to take a it a few notches up. Firstly the basic specs: 2023 Fender Precision American Original Neck, purchased from Thomann. Note these necks are manufactured true to the AO specs - this means in this instance the logos / decals are applied ON TOP of the lacquer finish on the neck. Also the truss rod is located at the heel of the neck. Custom Solderless P Bass harness, Alpha A250k solid shaft pots. Fender Pure Vintage '63 Precision Bass Pickups - these sound lovely btw, that true classic 60s Fender sound 2 Piece alder American alder body with custom nitro sunburst finish - note that due to the nitro finish the body has a few dings and wear on the body but these fit in very nicely with the overall aged look of the bass. There are no major dings / bumps / scrapes. Aged vintage tuners. Ash tray and pick up cover Since I took it the following has also been done: A full setup by one of Staffordshire's best. A brand new semi permanent shim has been added to the neck pocket to balance the neck out. The action was quite high, the old shim was removed and this new shim has brought it signincantly in line to a very playable low / medium action. A full truss rod adjustment with the new shim in place Internal cavities have been fully copper shielded with tape - this has virtually removed any buzz that was present (even with treble maxed out) Neck cavity screws have been replaced with official Fender screws Minor hardware adjustments including reseating the tuners and replacing pickguard screws with official Fender vintage Strings were replaced with Rotosound 105 nickels It's now in a position where it is a very playable bass. As you can see from the specs, the cost of the sum of the parts far outweighs the asking price and it now plays very much like a complete Fender. Wesight on the bathroom scales is 9 lbs. I will also supply the original pickup box which has the original brass base, this didn't fit this particular body so a different one was added, but I'll include the original. This also comes with a Gator hardcase as you can see in the pictures. I'm based just a few minutes from Junction 10 of the M6 (Walsall / Wolverhampton) and collection is preferred but I'm willing to travel a reasonable distance and maybe meet halfway. Happy for you to test it out on my practice amp at my place too. Potentially could mail this due to the hard case and I have a suitable box, but at a cost to you - lets have a chat about it via DM. Cheers.

Thank you.
