This is a Squier Classic Vibe (first series) body in Sonic Blue purchased from @Jono Bolton. The neck is a Status P flavour purchased from @Cuzzie. The body had the original CV high-mass bridge removed and replaced with a bbot, with the original screw holes plugged and new holes drilled. The electrics had been replaced with CTS pots and a switchcraft Jack socket. I fitted licensed Hipshot Ultralight tuners to the neck and bolted it together but was never entirely happy the neck was solid enough, as the screw holes in the neck were a little slack. Fast forward a few months and I decided to get the job done properly, so took the bass to Jon Shuker who plugged and filled the holes in the neck and re-drilled them, refitting the neck more snuggly than a really, really snug thing. While we were at it, I also asked him to refit the original CV high-mass bridge, plugging and re drilling as required. So, it’s now a very pretty, very solid, well playing bass that I could quite easily keep (as it’s worth far more than the sum of its parts now Jon has breathed on it) but I’m on a mission to clear out most of my gear as I no longer gig (nor do I really have a desire to). There are a few marks on the body (the worst one being to the left of the bridge) that I’ve captured in the pictures. The neck is in beautiful condition save for one of those weird carbon scuff marks that is under the lacquer (so you can’t actually feel) and a pin prick sized indentation. One point of note is that now the original bridge is back on, the holes for the bridge cover would need to be altered slightly if you were wanting to refit one. EDIT - Weight on my trusty luggage scale is 4.08kg (or pretty much 9lbs in old money). Collection very much preferred although if no collection buyers are forthcoming after a couple of weeks, I may well decide to ship.

£760 £700 collection/meet up or will ship at buyers expense I bought this off Ash last year but it's now surplus to requirements. It's in the same stunning condition as when I bought it. If you like your P basses with a chunky neck, few are chunkier than this! As you can see it currently has a black/white/black 13 hole plate fitted instead of the original black single ply 10 hole plate (included). I've also fitted a chrome BBOT bridge and some silver knobs instead of the stock black ones (again the originals are all included). It really is in beautiful condition and plays and sounds great. Fender Roger Waters Signature Precision Made in Mexico 2018-19 Neck Shape: Thick "C" Shape Number of Frets: 20 Fret Size: Medium Jumbo Position Inlays: Black Dot Position Inlays Fretboard Radius: 9.5" (24.1 cm) Fretboard: Maple Neck Material: Maple Neck Finish: Gloss Urethane Nut Width: 1.75" (44.45 mm) Scale Length: 34" (86.36 cm) Neck Plate: "F" Stamped Neck Plate with Rubber Spacer Truss Rod Nut: Vintage Style Slotted Tuning Machines: Vintage '70s Fender Stamped Open Gear Tuning Machines String Nut: Machined Brass Pickup: Seymour Duncan SPB-3 Quarter Pounder Weight approx 3.8kg (8lb 4oz) Original fender gig bag included Edit - Now sporting a set of Labella low tension flats 😎 £700 collected or meet up within an hour or so of me. Can now ship to GB at buyers expense. Thanks for looking.

I’ve often thought of getting a YOB precision, in my case 1973 but I would be scared to death to buy anything other than a bass that was either known to this forum, or from someone such as Andy Baxter. 😬

Really enjoyed this concert (and the album) and can’t wait to see them in Nottingham in a couple of weeks 😁 -
And I think I’d want all the sliders in place for that price.
