This is killing me Max, I’m in Stroud too....I’d need to thin the herd first though

Feel free to DM me if you’d like to try it out!

Price dropped to £2,250 (will not accept any offer below this)

Hit me with some offers for Xmas. Was going to withdraw but have decided I’ll entertain some offers again...

Great playing! Sounds lovely. What's the make of the round-wound strings you have on it, they do sound like flats. I'm interested in the bass as I was born in '61 and always wanted a year-of-birth Custom Precision.

Thanks a lot! I’m not actually sure what the strings are. They’re whatever Fender stick on their instruments as stock. I used to have a Pino CS with flats but I’m preferring the versatility of round-wounds on this bass. Tone is rolled off by about 75% and palm muting gives the flat-wound sound.

Very nice indeed.... how wide is the neck at the nut? and why do you choose it over the Pino?

It’s 1.75” width at the nut and I chose it over the Pino as I couldn’t see the difference for an extra £300 when trying them both out in Bass Direct. I also think this bass has a more classic look for pop gigs etc.

You sound wicked on that beast, flats or rounds?, and what are you running it through.... it's just about the perfect sound.

Thanks a lot! 

I’ve got rounds on, have preferred them over flats for a while now. 

And that’s just direct in played on Logic and using OBS to capture the sound.

Beautiful.. specs for the ones who are interesred as well.

Thanks a lot for posting this David 👍🏻

I have to say I’m having second thoughts of selling this as I’ve been playing it more recently for some shows... 😖

Price negotiable, need gone ASAP

*PRICE DROP* £2,250

*NO TRADES. CASH ONLY*

No trades, please don’t ask... After the 20th “how about this”, it gets really annoying.

Bought this brand new back in February for £3,199. Need yet more money for my house renovation so another has to go! Played only a small number of times, predominantly in the studio. 

Fantastic bass, I opted for it over a Pino CS (which I have also owned previously). 

It weighs 9b/4.0kg (according to the original listing with Bass Direct), however it feels lighter than this when playing it. 

Here is the original listing:

Video of me noodling on the bass:

I am located in Stroud, Gloucestershire. Collection preferred but I can also send if necessary. 

OHSC and case candy all included. Only mod I have made is sticking some Dunlop straplocks on it. 
 

Thanks!

My Favourite Amp ever! Absolutely love mine ❤️

I never thought I’d be selling it. It’s the only amp I’ve ever been truly happy with but I need the extra cash at the moment and with more gigs coming in, I’m after something lighter! ☹️

Bought brand new 11/2017. Comes with the Aguilar hard carry case which cost £250. 

Amp is in perfect condition, case has slight signs of wear. I will post some proper pictures soon but am just providing screenshotted photos from gigs/studio for now. 

Located in Stroud, Gloucestershire. Collection preferred but could sort out delivery if necessary. 

Only trade I will consider is for an Aguilar AG700 + cash. Shoot me a near offer to listed price, need the amp gone quickly.

Cheers!

On hold with someone via Facebook

SOLD ELSEWHERE

Tentative sale! I may back down from my decision to post! (I have done before)

Not much I need to say on this, you know how good they are...

Weight is around the 4.2kg range. 34” scale. A few minor defects but still in very good condition. Bass comes with non original Fodera teardrop case and case candy.

Victor Wooten signed the battery cover plate for me when I saw his trio in London a few months ago. The pictures provided were taken before the signing but I can provide more photos if you require, just PM me. 

Victor Wooten also played this bass back when it was at Thomann. Again, video can be shown if required. 

I will only entertain trades with early-mid 60s precision (plus cash if not all original etc), pino palladino CS + cash or low 60s CS P bass + cash. 

I am located in Gloucestershire. Pick up or can split cost on delivery. 

Cheers!

Please, please stop messaging with trade offers. I have quite clearly stated no trades and as is the case with every advert I post, I get bombarded with trade offers... I won’t be replying to anymore trade offers. Thanks.

The older and more decrepit we become, the more important the weight is! 

This is true!

Looks good, and weight info?

You guys and your weight requests... I don’t know the specific weight of this bass as I do not own any scales (I am happy with my oversized body). However I have looked up the average weights of these basses and they are around the 4.6kg range. Not the lightest!

Bought the bass a couple of months ago from Andertons. Great basses for the money. I bought this as a replacement for my Fender 5 Elite but ended up buying it back as realised I made a mistake! 

Bass comes with a Fender deluxe vintage style case (originally came with my old US Marcus Miller jazz V which I sold a while ago but held onto the case). 

I am based in Gloucestershire. Collection preferred but can send with insured courier at buyer’s expense. 

No trades, thanks.
