Looks great

These were & are great basses I wish I'd bought one back in the 80's, the CS 62 pickup is a great pickup IMO & the reason why I bought the American Standard Precision.

Very nice indeed

[quote name='Highfox' timestamp='1442774147' post='2869387'] I'm sure there are a few about, I have a 1970 like so as well..¨in the hands here of a certain fella. [url="https://flic.kr/p/jjP3nq"][/url] [/quote] I like the look of that Precision

All I added was a set of Fender flatwounds & straplocks,really into the whole Precision thing now

[attachment=201033:2014 Precision.jpg]It took me over 20 years to get & understand, just how good the Fender Precision is with just 1 pickup, volume and tone. Since I got one in January it's all I need.

Had a 5 string SB315 IIRC it was a nice bass, should have kept it

Wish I'd been able to keep mine,great basses.

[quote name='Telebass' timestamp='1439365897' post='2842119'] I don't see anything wrong with having loads of basses. It's just become unnecessary for me. And I'm impressed by all the extra space I have! [/quote] Same here at one point I had more basses than space to keep them,especially since I was not playing live, and with a family that needed the space a bit more. So now I'm down to 3 my 1964 Hofner Violin bass & my 1989 Squire precision, both of which now have been stored away (just sentimental value now). And my 1 bass that I play now is a 2014 US Precision and I feel better for it.

That is a very nice looking bass you have there.

Easy Line 6 bass.

+1 for how good the Custom Sop pickup sounds

What a good find nice one enjoy it

I had the "Jack" bass in the 90's as well, wish I'd kept mine

Had a few bargains though maybe when I bought them the going price was not far off. 1964 Hofner violin bass £175 November 1988 1992 Rickenbacker 4003 £650 August 1998 2003 Musicman SUB £89.99 2012 I THINK. 2008 MIM/MIJ Fender Precision £150 2012 There have been loads of others but these stick out.

Looks good.

You have 2 great basses there ,

Great look with the black scratchplate & the white pickup covers very cool

Amazing work you had done with amazing results, it looks brilliant .

[quote name='grandad' timestamp='1434276267' post='2798170'] Put flatwounds on and never change them again! [/quote] Done just that and for that very reason.

Absolutely stunning

The bass looks great hope when you finish the setup, it's everything you'd hoped that it would be . For my 21st birthday my Dad bought me a secondhand Peavey T-40 (stolen years ago ), often thought about replacing it but the weight of it was heavy then I'm 48 now don't think I could wear it for long .

[quote name='theyellowcar' timestamp='1431791267' post='2775065'] Win win! [/quote] Same here nice one

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1431605881' post='2773065'] I found that, despite liking MIMs, Squiers, CIJs, Sig Series etc, the ones for me are the US Standards. It may be "label-conciousness" or something, but I just feel more comfortable with them. Nothing wrong with the others, but to me there is always something, that I can`t specify mind, missing with them. [/quote] It took me 27 years & a few attempts to love the Precision bass, but like Lozz196 the new American Standard Precision changed all that for me .
