sold!

I hear you, seems like you're doing the right thing then. It's a very cool bass. I'm sure there's another lover for it out there somewhere. Good luck!

I'd say you've lost you're head! Seriously, nice bass. Shame we can;t have them all. Hope you don't regret it mate.

Hello neighbour! I'm right by the Kodak factory and surrounded by beautiful basses!

[quote name='Chris Horton' timestamp='1377535690' post='2188579'] Yep , im back looking at this lovely bass again Do you have any pictures of all the date stamps ? neck heel , pots , pickups etc.? [/quote] I hear you brother.....Please PM me with your email address and I'll send lots of detailed internal pics over to you tonight. Thanks.

[quote name='Gary Williams' timestamp='1377511003' post='2188212'] Good God that is gorgeous - good luck with the sale [/quote] Thank you! It looks like you have some great basses. If you fancy moving on to this beauty then you'd be surprised what cash price I'd take Cheers!

[u][size=6][b]Now £2500[/b][/size][/u] 1969 - All Original - Precision Bass in Sunburst - Great Condition- Original Hard Case - Slim B shape neck! In excellent all original condition with a gorgeous B shaped neck. The bass is 'virgin', it has no changed parts or issues and comes with it's original hard case and metal covers. Weighs only 8.20lb. This bass was bought from, and is listed as 'sold' on the great Andy Baxter Bass website, up for £3150 if you'd like to take a look. I got this bass as i love excellent condition vintage Fenders and the slim B shape necks that became standard after 1968 (but later became fat in the 70's). I fell in love with the bass immediately, it's got a warm vintage tone and is light and comfortable. Plus, as well as being a great player, it's better than money in an ISA these days! Sadly I just can't kick the love of my '66 Precision, and having always played '64 and '66 Precision basses I just can't change my mold. It is now just sitting under the bed so I'm going to sell it to pay for my recently acquired Custom Shop Jazz Bass. , For those of you who are eagle eyed, Fender used orange and green cloth wiring in the 60's for their amplifiers. CBS began to use up this wire on guitars from around 1968 when they changed amp wiring from cloth to plastic, hence the great colour of the wires on this bass. They also used up old stock of pickups, hence the two tone. The solder joints are completely virgin, all components are completely original, as verified. Sad to see this one go as I love the style, tone and slim neck option. I am based in Harrow, NW London/Middx. Posting now possible, please email me if interested.

[quote name='hiram.k.hackenbacker' timestamp='1377356254' post='2186666'] Do you known what month the next stamp is? [/quote] I'm going to guess at May. The stamp is bearly visable and looks like it could be May or March. However the pickups are June as the date is 6.9.66 so in American fashion that;s 9th June. The pots are dated to the 11th week of '66, though that doesn't help us much either! [b]EDIT: The date is May, my other '66 is from May '66 and when comparing the faint date stamp lines on both [/b][b]stamps they match up.[/b] Thanks for the interest

[quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1377349786' post='2186571'] Three 60's P basses on the same day That's an impressive collection you have. Good luck with your sales. [/quote] Well, it is raining today so here's some sunshine! Cheers again mate.

Yeah, puts me to shame... Thanks

[size=6][b]Now £3500[/b][/size] I'm still not 100% sure if I should sell this, so I'm putting out the feelers here to see if you can twist my arm. I have two basses from this period and whilst as a Fender fan that's pretty cool, financially it doesn't make much sense anymore as I can't justify having two. This bass was bought from, and is listed as 'sold' on, the great Andy Baxter Bass website, up for £4500 if you'd like to take a look. It sold for that amount to my friend, who sold it to me when he decided to buy, yet another, 1957 Precision. It's in stunning condition, just a few subtle knocks and small scratches that you really have to look for, it's practically lived in it's case yet sounds and feels absolutely gorgeous. The neck is stunning and the tone is crystal clear with the kind of warmth only the old ones give you. The bass is 'virgin', it has no changed parts or issues and comes with it's original hard case and metal covers - including the muting foam on the bridge cover, which is quite rare. Weighs only 8.42lb, very light for a Fender. I am based in Harrow, NW London/Middx. Posting is not recommended but may be possible, please email me if interested.
