Thanks for that. Just checking

Has this sold?

I did gig my classic vibe ahead of my usa on a number of occasions.
-
Guess you went for ebay then?

I own a usa P bass with the S1 switch and its great, I love it. However many years ago before I owned the usa (my bass at the time was a Squier P bought new in 97) I was in a guitar shop on the look out to buy a new amp.
The guy in the shop asked what type of bass I played, I just said a precision and he handed me a usa p. Plugged it in for me and I thought Yes here we go. It was terrible, to my hands anyway. I was really disappointed that I'd got my hands on a usa p and it felt rubbish. I asked if I could try something else and tried a usa jazz which was miles better but the neck was too thin for my liking so tried a mexican p which was no where near as good as the jazz but better than the usa p.
I then saw this red bass, I thought it was a really ugly bass(just my taste-sorry) but thought i'd try it anyway. It was amazing better than all the others but maybe just edged by the jazz. There was no price on it so I thought this one must be really expensive. At the time I had no idea about this brand of guitars so I asked the guy how much it was. He said he didn't know but he'd go and find out. I thought "I'm right, its gonna be pricey. He returned and it turned out it was an Ibanez gsr 200 at £179. Ha I nearly fell off the stool.
Eventually I guess I got lucky and bought a usa p off ebay without trying it first. I have had a few back up basses but no only have the usa as not been playing bass so much recently. The two best back ups I had were a 51 reissue and a Squier classic vibe 60's p. The fiesta red one if anyone is interested. Tried some jazzes and even tried a Hofner bass. Think i'm gonna get another classic vibe p as back up now i'm playing more bass again.

Had one of these but (sadly) sold it. Need to think about whether I need another bass.
-
Tempted....would definitely snap this up if in the natural finish
-
This used to be mine too. Why does no one want to keep this bass :-)
Kinda been hoping i'd get the chance to buy it back one day as I miss it but I don't like bridge and pick up covers generally and without them now i'd either have screws or holes :-(
Have a bump anyway -
Have a free "I want a honey blonde one" type of bump :-)
-
+1 for highway one

Trade with Fender Highway 1 P? Preferably honey blonde if i can be fussy :-)
-
Cheers, I play a usa precision but considering something different as I'm starting to find the neck a bit chunky for some reason even tho I've played them for years. Could get a jazz again but considering something different altogether.

Bump
-
Whats the neck thickness and nutwidth on these?
Cheers -
Price drop bump. £300 or possible trades for a Warwick rockbass corvette or electro acoustic bass
-
Would you be interested in a straight trade for a Hofner club bass?
-
Is this still for sale?
-
Price drop to £350 or a trade with a decent electro acoustic bass
-
Hi
Thanks for interest. Now sold and didn't even get time to put photos up -
Hi
Up for sale is my Classic vibe 60's precision in fiesta red. Great bass, bought on here recently. No knocks, dings etc. Great sounding bass strung with flatwound strings. I gigged with it once.
My reason for selling is that its never gonna replace my usa precision which i'm just so used to as i've had it for years.
I bought it for £200 + £15 p & p so just want my money back. I will consider a trade either with a Squier CV 60's jazz or a decent electro acoustic bass.
I'm sure everyone knows what they look like but i'll put some pics up later
Thanks

Ha no worries Ash, worth a try. If I could sell the club i'd buy it back as I'm not going to be using it now. The project I was gonna use it for didn't work out as planned :-0
Have a free bump :-) -
Some of these are making me laugh but I'm almost sure some of the people being talked about on here are on another forum writing on a thread called Bell end bassists :-)

Don't suppose you wanna trade it back do ya?? :-)
