    Guys, this is my friend's bass and I had played many hours on this instrument. 
    I'm not a fan of this type of guitars, but THIS is a SUPERB instrument. 
    It's sounds like a GRAND PIANO. 
    I really think about to buy this one despite the Fender-oriented habits because this bass sounds NOBLE.

    I see 4.5kg (about 10 pounds) on my bathroom scale :) Hardware is very very massive, knobs, bridge and thumbrest are made from brass.
    It's rather normal ash body weight and it resonates perfect.

    Oh dear lord.

    Do you know what the weight is?

    Yes, it's a first active Fender bass. It has an active/passive switch. I use only passive mode.

    Controls from left to right:
    - passive mode: volume, tone, nothing
    - active mode: volume, treble, bass

    Am I right in thinking that this is an active bass? What do the controls do? :gas:

    Hello again!

    Not really sure but... I'll have to sell this beautiful bass.
    This is all original Fender Precision Bass Special from 1980.
    I bought it from well known forum member some time ago.
    It's super clean, in really good condition (in my opinion is near perfect condition - look at the pictures).
    Frets are polished, bass is professionally set by luthier.
    Original case isn't perfect (as you see at the photos) but is fully functional and it protects instrument really well.
    Neck is perfect (similar to jazz bass, very comfortable, also fretboard is super comfortable in my opinion).
    I have an original thumbrest too.
    Sound is excellent, just like vintage Fender Precision with ash body, you know it well !
    Color is awesome, it looks better in reality than in photos.
    Bass is in constant use! I'm a full time musician and reliable seller (Check my feedback).
    I can record some sound samples if you want - just let me know.
    Bass will be well packed and sent with full insurance (via DHL or DPD or something <from Poland>).
    Feel free to ask me any question.
    Cheers !

    PRICE [font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][size=4][b]£[/b][/size][/font]1100 + SHIPPING

    Hello Nate. Yesterday - another great bass player Lars Erik Dahle recommended your album on Facebook :) I've checked it of course.
    It's a great piece of soul music which I really like. Sweet sound and great vocals. Congratulations ! We will have to buy it :)

    Thank you, so kind !
    Electric Sheep is a very old one :) I had much fun with this remix because I've recorded drums to this song (I had an old, creepy, terrible, moldy drums).
    But I like that "bad" vintage tone.
    Cheers !

    Hello bass colleagues ! It's my first post here (except 'basses for sale' :) ).
    It's my first recording with bass solo. I want to share it with other bass players so it's why I'm writing here.
    What you will hear is a Fender Jazz Bass 1974 with EMG J set pickups.
    Cheers !
