This body is a from a 1993 Japenese Fender P-bass "P-43" and the serial number on the original neck was Q055752. The body is not in the best condition to be honest... There was a pickup that was put in near the bridge, and the routing for the pickup was not done that well. It was for a Seymour Duncan SMB-4 pickup, so the hole is quite big. I tried filling it in with filler, but failed miserably when it all crumbled out! So I have taken all the filler back out. Other things include a hole for a side-mounted jack intput was made, and a small bit of wood was removed from the hole where the volume pots are. There is moderate scratches over the body, and the back has some pretty severe buckle-rash.. I would think that this is most suited for a new paintjob and some TLC. £100 collection in Brighton, or I can post for an extra £10. I would prefer bank transfer if posted.

Very straight neck, the truss rod nut is fine, and not rounded out inside. Frets are perfect, no dead spots or lower frets. I've cleaned the fingerboard and buffed it all. The back of the neck, and the tip of the headstock has some small dings and surface scratches as you'd expect from a 21 year old neck. Serial number is Q055752, and it's "Made" in Japan...not crafted. Comes with neck plate (bit of buckle-rash) and screws. £150 cash in Brighton, or I can post for an extra £10. If posted, I would prefer bank transfer.

Great sounding pickup. Really warm but with lots of low-punch guts. The casings are a little worn and have some slight scratches that can only be seen in the right light. Complete with the screws and springs. But no foam I'm afraid as it ripped to bits when I tried to take it out. Collect from Brighton £35, or I can post for an extra £3. Would prefer bank transfer if you want it posted.

please remove...mistake

Sounds great

So tempted....looking for an amber P body right now. Don't suppose you'd sell the body on its own for £100...?

Hi. I'm "John Deacon" in a Queen tribute... I've already got the Black P-bass with brass hardware ect...which is my main bass. Looking for a spare, but that is also Deacy-esque....I can't really tell from the photos, but would you definitely call this "orange", or does it look more of an "amber/natural" in real life? I have a Seymour Duncan SMB4D pickup that we could trade? Matt

Genuine pickup...the logo on the front has 90% rubbed off, but as you can see in the photo, the model number is stuck to the back. Great sounding pickup even when used in passive bass. Very clean casing and poles. The A and D poles are raised slightly higher than the others. Comes with the 3 screws and springs. £40, (I live in Brighton), or add another £3 for postage. Bank transfer over Paypal if possible please. Cheeeeers.

£100

AMAZING little pedal...so many awesome sounds to be had out of this...even my mate's crappy P-bass rip off sounded good through this! A few small scratches on the metal, but hardly visible really. I still have the tin that it came it, but it's a little bit battered...but keeps the pedal safe from being crushed, or knocked. Works totally 100% perfectly. Please note that this pedal didn't/doesn't come with a power supply. Any 9v supply with an appropriate current will be fine. I'll throw in a couple of 9v batteries too. £100. I live in Brighton. Pickup yourself, or £5 postage. If you want to pay electronically, I'm happy for you to do a direct bank transfer to avoid fees.

[/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Times]The neck is from a 1998 Fender Jazz bass. It has wear along the topside of the neck but looks nice and used (if you like that kind of thing).[/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Times]There is a small cut/dent on the underside of the fretboard...can not be seen and has no effect on the playability. [/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Times]The original neck has been sold elsewhere. [/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Times]The butt of the neck fits perfectly in the body, and the truss nut has not been worn out.

[/font][/color] [color=#000000][font=Times]If you are buying this as a present for someone, please run it by them first that the neck is a Jazz bass neck as they are obviously slightly different in width to Precision necks.
