Hi Guys,
The band I've been dragged kicking & screaming out of retirement to stand in with - (when the local Yoda of fat wires is busy with one of his other umpteen bands - 'cause unlike me he's 'that' good) - requires me to play both fretted & fretless - eeeek! - Basses & so it is with much regret I need to offer my Custom Shop '59 Precision - d.o.b 14th of January 2000 'Time Machine' Relic thing of beauty !! - grooved bridge saddles, reverse tuners etc & as stated by Bass Guitar magazine - 'the attention to detail is quite stunning'!
I was 'really' hoping to hang on to this for 'the duration' but needs must!
For trade initially for a less expensive bass & some dosh my way - but I'm a sucker for a really nice bass if you have something 'special' - Status - preferably headless & must have a truss rod, 62 P Bass Sunburst reissue, Steinberger with a body, USA Sunburst P or preferably PJ Bass - even a Hohner Jack - black if possible or maybe natural - so who knows - eeeek! - but no maple fingerboards - sorry & a mega low 'playable' action 'has' to bepossible for my old arthritic fingers ??
It is currently in what I term as 'playing livery' with a tort scratchplate - but can be reverted to it's original guise in a thrice - i.e. - Anodised Scrathplate + Bridge & pickup covers!
It looks like a 'one piece' Ash body through the Trans Blonde/white finish - but I'm definately no expert & the neck is as straight as they come facilitating an incredibly low action - the Premium, selected Ash body may explain the incredibly low weight of only 8lbs on my digital bathroom scales!
