[quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1446750943' post='2902104'] Bugger, that was quick Andy, didn't even get time to put my Nate Mendel Precision up for sale [/quote] Sorry bud I'll add you to the list of folks interested if it falls through

[s]For sale...my '77 Fender P, black (not a refin) with some sexy wear spots and rosewood fingerboard. Frets dressed recently by Jon Shuker and new bone nut added at same time. She plays lovely now ...the old nut was held together by cardboard Original wiring loom and pups included but not currently fitted (see pics below). Kiogon loom and Seymour Duncan SPB1 pup currently installed (original pup does work fine so you get 2 fully working pups here and the kiogon 'patented' solderless wiring means a quick switch too!). Original covers and thumbrest included. I've replaced all the scratchplate and pup screws but the originals are bagged and included Includes non-original (but looks exactly right) Fender branded G&G hardcase. Weight...measured using the tried and tested 'weigh self with and without bass' gives a very pleasant 8.4lb Currently wearing Labella flats (45-105). Bass is in Sheffield. Happy to consider part trades with cash my way, 4 string fretless, or a Gibson Thunderbird (burst or natural mahogany preferably)...

Holy smokes! This is my dream db!! aaaaarrrgghhhhhhh!!!!!

Absolutely superb rig, I loved mine, sounded amazing!

Sad times matey but what a glorious rig!

I do rather want this so I can give it a whirl with the band! Would you consider trades with you adding some cash to make it work?

well that's the first Sandberg I've ever liked the look of deal with confidence, Guillaume is a top chap

[quote name='Truckstop' timestamp='1446401754' post='2899120'] Fretless Precisions always sound great. I had a bitsa once made from an '83 neck and a no-name body and really liked it. Lovely soft, articulate, expressful tone with a subtle mwah that you o my get from a P pup. I have no doubt that this one would sound even more lovely! I'd gladly have this one if funds allowed and I'd use it every day. A bass this gorgeous deserves to be used! [/quote] Thanks matey, if it had a j pup at the bridge it'd still be perfect as I love the feel of it and the tone from the p pup...I'd just like a bit more j with my p

Quite tempted to have this back, I had the bassdoc neck fitted

[quote name='JamesTun' timestamp='1445894952' post='2895219'] PM sent^^. [/quote] What are the controls on the preamp please?

[quote name='JamesTun' timestamp='1445892195' post='2895168'] This weekend would probably be the best if you are available, then it could be possible. [/quote] Sometime Sunday evening might work as we get back from Northumberland Saturday evening

[quote name='JamesTun' timestamp='1445891384' post='2895155'] To be clear, it is probably likely that the bass will be in Sheffield from Thursday but I do not have capacity to allow to try it at mine for the time being. Regards, James. [/quote] An acoustic test is sufficient to see whether it has the character I'm looking for, I could also bring my headphone amp and phones to check the sounds

If this is still around at the weekend when am home in Sheffield I may ask to come and meet it
