Hutton replied to Sarlscharisma's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
You are in the wrong forum my friend. Get a moderator to shift this to 'amps and cabs for sale'. This forum is for basses only. Good luck with the sale! -
Sunday Bump! -
Thanks for the kind comments gents. She is a beauty! I didn’t go as far as drilling the wall. You can see the legs of the Hercules stand which I used. The wall does make a good background as it makes the bass stand out.

The official Fender colour is ivory.

I hope you’re wearing as well as the Precision Andy!😂

The precise date is February 14th 1984. That’s what is stamped on the heel of the neck.

I have for sale my Fender USA Standard Precision from 1984. The Bass is all-original apart from a sprague orange drop capacitor being fitted. The original capacitor is included. The bass is almost unmarked apart from a very small mark in the lacquer on the top horn which I have tried to photograph next to a one pence coin. This mark has been on the bass since I got it about 8 years ago and has not got any worse. The condition is superb considering this is a 34 year old bass.The bass will come in a non-original Fender G&G Deluxe Brown Tolex Case. The bass is currently strung with Thomastik Flatwounds. I had to think twice about putting this bass up for sale as I have grown rather fond of it but I have one too many precisions so a choice had to be made. The asking price of £1200 includes delivery to the UK. I am not looking to trade. It is sale only I’m afraid.

I've just ordered one. The wait begins!

I am about to join the Limelight fraternity. I have just ordered a ‘57’ Precision in candy apple red with gold anodised pickguard. The waiting now begins.😎

We can’t all be perfect!😂😂😂 -
I’m not judging. I would just rather not be subject to the same sort of experiences which have been expressed here. I can now perfectly understand why sellers want a collection in person only. I would not want someone selling me a bass to be put in an awkward position with a courier. By buying from a shop I would have some sort of comeback without having an awkward situation with a fellow bass chatter. The good thing about this forum is that through the experience of the members one can learn the best way forward.
-
You must be kidding after the horror stories on this thread. Private deals are definitely not a good way to go if couriers are involved.
-
You're absolutely right. I'll stick to buying from the shops.
-
Just for the record to state an opposite experience. I have never had any problems with parcel force or any other couriers. I once had a bass delivered two days late and was given a full explanation why. Maybe it is only the bad experiences that get written about.
-
Many thanks for this Karl. I would certainly travel to Edinburgh. I’ll view your ads with increased interest. You always have great basses for sale. You’re a top man.
-
Is this the middle of England or the U.K.? Also, Karl would you come halfway to meet me?
-
This is my position exactly apart from the different location.
-
Ok folks I surrender. I seem to be alone in my thoughts. It is perhaps a geographical problem which is mine alone. All I will say is that when I have advertised basses on here I have been told by many folk that they are interested in the bass but that I am too far away. If they are far away from me then I am also far away from them.
-
I’m happy to agree to differ.
-
Pardon me but this is an unfair comment for the reasons I state above.
-
Return rail journey costs from Aberdeen are prohibitive. It would add far too much on to the price of the bass. I also should say I have never had any problems with couriers apart from late deliveries. Just lucky I guess.
-
Very good!🤣
-
Meeting halfway is all very well but I live in Aberdeen.
