Fair enough. It seems to be a specific Gumtree scam where the first message received says, my [insert family member] would like to buy this, email him at.... I tend to get at least one per advert. Unless their cousin Barry really did want that old washing machine?! 😆

There are a couple of variations on this but they are all scams. Just ignore next time.

I'd get the performer, nice basses. I wouldn't look past the player series personally, they deliver everything you'd need from a passive bass.

I've played this bass and it's great, a really comfy neck too.

Beauty! I was considering this myself, glad you got there before me!

I've tried two performer precisions and loved them both. I'll be looking into getting one when funds allow.

This is dangerous!

Tried one at the weekend, it was ok. I didn't really like the complete lack of finish on the neck.

I'm in the same boat as the OP. I've owned US Fenders and a Shuker in the past but I always feel unworthy of them, like I'm trying to compensate for a lack of talent. I'm currently using a player precision and feel much more comfortable using it.

Because we all know the US versions turn you into a rock god! 😉

Nice bass, I've got the exact same, minus the cat.

No issues with tuners either. I don't know whether the jazz is different but the edges are definitely not rolled on the precisions.

I've got the precision player, it's excellent. I'm on the lookout for a player jazz myself as soon as a reasonably priced one comes up. Series is recommended.

I can see a trip to Andertons happening when the v5 are released.

I was looking at this when it came up, thankfully you saved me from myself! It's a beauty, enjoy it!

For sale is this pickguard which came on a previous bass but not needed now. It fits my former Squier and now my Fender player. It does have a slight flex in it but its fine once screwed in. Willing to swap for a black pickguard. Includes postage.

I've literally been considering this point in the last few days. From my perspective, the rise in streaming has meant people buy less physical items but there does seem to be a special place for records now. The costs incurred for recording are relatively high so it's always nice to be able to claw back that cost where possible.

And another! https://skurvi.bandcamp.com/ https://open.spotify.com/track/1DjlAIZa0BI3D39HQf014q

Nice!

I love a set of Pro steels but quite enjoying the Fender nickels that came with the bass currently.

And now another new one! https://skurvi.bandcamp.com/
