Price drop to £525 bump.

Bumpity

Random bump.

I got my new Barefaced cab yesterday & this sounds pretty sweet through it, so I've decided to keep hold of it for now. Withdrawn from sale, sorry guys! Thanks for all the messages & PMs.

Bump

Up for the chop is my Japanese Fender '62-US Reissue. I bought this as a backup for my US Precision, but since then I've bought a Lakland which has taken over the CIJ's spot. As I'm looking at moving house some point next year, I need to thin the herd! The bass is about 4 years old. It's had a little bit of work done:[list] [*]Pots have been changed to CTS, with wiring changed to cloth - to make it a re-issue internally as well as externally [*]Tuners have been replaced for reverse style Gotohs, again to be period correct (stock ones were normal) [/list] I can't remember if the guy I bought it from (Bassman Steve on here) replaced the pickguard with one built by the The Bass Doc - I'll try and find that out. It's been played a lot before I took hold of it, so there's a few dings & scratches - I've tried to capture them all in the pics. There are some very light scratches on the front of the bass - pointed them out with the arrows. Also, two of the tuning pegs are slightly bent at the elephant ear part - this does not affect the ability to tune, or for the instrument to stay in tune. They could probably be bent back to straight, but it didn't bother me so I didn't bother with it! It's a lovely bass, and needs to be played... But it's just not with me I'm afraid It's currently strung with Rotosound Tru Bass black nylon strings, I can throw in a set of stainless roundwounds too - not used, but taken off another Japanese bass when it arrived. Link to the Fender Japan site: [url="http://www.fenderjapan.co.jp/pb62-us.html"]http://www.fenderjap...jp/pb62-us.html[/url] Some specs:[list] [*]Body: Alder [*]Neck: Maple [*]Fretboard: Rosewood [*]Radius: 184R (No idea what that means!) [*]Frets: 20 [*]Nut width: 42mm [*]Bridge: Spilal Vintage [*]Pickups: PB Vintage USA [/list] Looking for [s]£575[/s] £525 + shipping. Comes with generic hard case that has been used once - Stealth bought it to go with the Lakland he sold, but I prefer soft cases! Any questions please ask!

I'll take £650 (exc. delivery) bump.

If it doesn't sell, let me know & I'll give it some thought - might be willing to sort something out as the bass I originally bought was a '74 reissue from the same series, but had to take it back due to a poorly fitted bridge cover. (If you are interested in a trade that is!)

I'm guessing you're not interested in a '64 AVRI Jazz for a trade? http://basschat.co.uk/topic/221170-fs-feeler-fender-amvri-64-jazz-bass-2013-series/ I know it's not a R****, but it's at least worth asking Cheers

I didn't get a chance to ebay it the other night, but definitely will this weekend, so a final bump for nearest offers...

I don't suppose you're able to get a rough measurement from the string end/tailpiece to the nut on the bass you used them on? I'm looking for new strings for my Stagg EUB, but apparently 3/4 strings don't fit. No worries if you can't! Cheers

Those blast cuts - are they 4/4 length?

I wasn't going to trade this, but I have a MusicMan Sterling I'd be up for trading: http://basschat.co.uk/topic/217641-fs-usa-musicman-sterling-l700-price-drop-again/

Final bump, before it's on evilbay tomorrow. Straight sale only I'm afraid, no trades

One more bump, as I need to cut the collection down within the next couple of months

Still available - last chance before it goes on evilbay in the next couple of days, so reasonable offers considered. Able to ship, but UK only as it only comes in the original softcase (though a well padded one) & I don't wish to risk international postage.

Again, are these 4/4 length / suitable for an EUB? Ta

[quote name='andydye' timestamp='1384868445' post='2281600'] This is a mega bargain for a £140 combo!! [/quote] I was trying so hard to resist it, did you have to post that & convince me?!? PM'd

How old is the amp? Cheers

Final bump, after this I'm keeping it

Bump I might have trade interest in anything P-bass related...
