B for me, I like the way the grain runs outwards , but both very nice pieces of walnut indeed

Yes I agree, isn’t this what Sean Hurley does with his 61 and 66 in the studio and sometimes live, and I know he uses his custom shop also

That’s not the reasons I have them or anyone I know, I just like the whole vibe about them and enjoy playing them ,but I do agree that some just buy them simply for their value

I’m glad in a way that don’t prefer the wider neck on the early 60s precisions or I would be in a bit of trouble 😁, although I do have a bit of a liking for a few 66s I’ve seen at the moment

Imo the 60s and early 70s basses do sound different, I’ve got 6 precisions and 8 jazzes and nothing plays and feels like a good vintage fender , to me they also have a history and certain nostalgia, I’ve also never had a so called dog, I guess there are some bad ones out there and some are better made than others just like they are now but I think a lot of that is just bad publicity from the fender haters who’ve probably never even played one , they are crazy prices now and I wouldn’t drop 18k on one unless it was love at first sight 😁which hasn’t happened yet, I don’t think the prices will go down either so still investable

Forgot about this thread, I’ve been trying a few songs that have that great African vibe which has taken me to learning something new to me which is Seben bass along the lines of this, quite a lot of the songs are based around a 1-4-5 progression but getting up to speed is pretty tricky

That’s some collection, Vintage wise ,sunburst is my favourite for a precision, and Olympic white for jazzes, but I think there’s something special about the candy apple red , I’d happy have that P or jazz especially with the matching headstock, be interesting to see how the bidding goes

Ooh thank you Rick

Nice job, I’ve got the same pickups in one of my precision’s, I can’t remember how much I paid but it wasn’t a big price, really great aren’t they

Absolute Music Have got a lovely looking 63 P in, lots of wear on it , looks pretty cool , shame the prices have gone up so much https://share.google/Leijlry2koONTRuhQ

I don’t have instagram but from what I can see that CAR precision looks nice, don’t think GH auctions site is open for viewing yet

That Bassline is funky

Just had a thought, I was thinking right handed, perhaps it’s right with a lefty

This doesn’t sound right to me, all my P basses which are up to 72 work clockwise to increase the volume and tone, don’t know why they would work in reverse
