Thanks Karl, sorry to see it go but needs must 😪

Up for sale is my 2012 American Vintage Reissue 57 Precision bass in white blonde with black pickguard the gold anodised one was taken off but will come the bass, maple neck, vintage correct cloth wired 57 pickup with raised A string pole pieces, threaded saddle bridge, serial number on the neck plate, finger rest and bridge cover. This has a one piece ash body with one piece maple neck so a real bit of work from Fender here. I took this in a trade but moving it on as I have something coming in and nee to balance the kitty. It’s in great condition with just a few dings in the finish on the bottom edge. The neck is a 7.25” radius with 1.75” width at the nut. It sounds and plays great and having the thin nitro finish is very resonant. I don’t think there’s a better looking. it weighs in at 4.3kg and has standard strap pins on.

I bought this lovely Fender Musicmaster bass off Greyparrot. The original white finish had been striped back to bare wood and I think some kind of varnish had been applied but I sanded this back again to bare wood and put on 5 coats of Nitrocellulous white undercoat and 6 coats of antique white which has a more yellowish colour. I changed out the pickup as these were originally guitar pickups that Fender used at that time, I ordered a 4 pole replacement from Mojo Pickups which fitted into the cover nicely and has really improved the sound. Original pickup will come with it, everything else is original. In very good shape for a 43 year old bass Nut width 40mm Weight 3.9 Kgs Neck is not too chunky Nice low action and very little fret wear, I'm really pleased with the finished job, the grain of the wood can be seen but hard to photograph but looks nice Sale only as I have made a few acquisitions recently so Im moving it on Price will include delivery to UK addresses
