    Absolutely loving that & very surprised it's not gone yet. A Wife with a playable neck for us lesser mortals. ❤️

    The scalloping is more to help string bending. 😋

    Absolute steal for a 25th ♥️

    At that price it's a bargain restoration job! Just wish I had the skills.

    I've strayed away from commenting but sadly can no longer resist. This bass is crying out for a skilled & sympathetic restoration back to single pup 4000. Originals in used, gigged condition are now hovering around the £3k mark. I doubt they will get much cheaper. The 4000 single pickup is a wonderful bass imo. I have never been able to get one but I have an amazing HW built to 1974, 4000 specs. VERY different to modern Ricks. Much slimmer beautiful neck, body slimmer back to front and what a sound from that single pickup! If I had the skills I would rip your arm off at this super price. Good luck but really you shouldn't need it.

    Damn, missed that one. Could you edit your title to SOLD please, so I don't get my hopes up again.😢

    Excellent, great looking bass. HOWEVER!!!!

    Bought, never used, stuck in drawer. They've reduced the price since I bought it. Hey ho. Price includes 2nd class postage to mainland UK. Link to spec https://www.rickysounds.co.uk/product/4003-4001treble-bezel-cove-chrome/ Cheers, Karl.

    Reason for sale. A car park, a senior moment, a £650 excess. I only use my Elite Jazz & HW Rick 4000 now, so this is the first on the block. I've seen these up from £400 to £1000 (loony). Discontinued in 2016 Squier Signature Series, one of the very first run from 2008. SUPER condition. Factory jazz neck, Precision body, Duncan Design pick up. HARD to find that in any Fender or to a slightly lesser extent Squier. Tuners replaced with better torque adjustable version (original tuners included). I considered replacing the pup, but it's excellent. I considered putting tone rotary & loom, but my fingers vary the tone. I considered flatwounds, but I don't like them. I considered getting a less erm, bright scratchplate but I couldn't be arsed. Light at 8lb 4oz. This really is an excellent bass that I've gigged quite a lot. No gig bag or case, but for another £25 I will provide a tatty hard case. Collection from Darlington preferred, but will look at other options. LINK to full spec https://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/Squier-by-Fender-Pete-Wentz-Precision-Bass-Guitar-Black/JVU Thanks for looking, Karl.

    Same here. Good luck, terrific bass which would be mine if it was a maple board.

    Nice bass with sensible, good quality mods. Looking at what some folk are asking for Squiers, this seems a good deal to me. Mike's a great bloke to deal with. GLWTS Mike.

    Tech 21 Fly rig, V1, with original (slightly bashed) tin and PSU Super condition, I rarely used it. Prefer collection from Darlington. Extra £20 for 3/4 day mainland UK insured courier delivery. Feedback available, cheers, Karl.

    Awful lot of good bass for that money, someone is going to get a bargain.

    Just to point out, this is not going to be a replacement for the Flea. It's only me pointing out some shared features. I bought it; because of some shared features (dual concentric, Pure Vintage 64 Jazz pups) which I like. And some not shared features, especially matching headcap, 9.5" radius & medium jumbo frets, which I like.

    The Pacific Peach Ltd Ed comes with 3 ply parchment. I bought the tort aftermarket as I'm not a fan of the parchment white.
  19. karlfer
    I've had a couple of the Fleas. Moved on because I couldn't get on with the radius or the frets. Pacific Peach is one of "those" colours. Under stage lighting anything from white to black. Under real life lighting, from Orangey, through to Salmon Pink, through to Blackpool Horse Drawn Princess Barbie Carriage Pink.

    The new Aerodyne Precision Special has the best pickup I've ever had on an Aerodyne. Coupled with stuff like 12" radius, Babicz bridge, chamfered arm bit, torque adjustable tuners etc, very different beast.
