A friend of mine has a pink fender precision which may go up for sale. I am trying to get some information together about it. I know that these bass guitars were made in small numbers and I believe in the following colours ---- - pink - orange - blue - yellow The colour finish on these basses had a thick plastic type of colour to the body. Are there any 70's / 80's fender experts that know anything about this range of bass guitars? Cheers Chris

I didn't know that aluminium could rust Where has he stored it ? ...................... In his salt water fish tank ?

They all know that I play bass My work Boss is also my friend Who plays keyboard and is also the MD of "Callington Community Gospel Choir" I play bass with them when the require a bass player

When finished , How much roughly do you think that it will cost to put together ?

Great looking basses. I love the wood grain

I do the same as Rick. When playing I only have the bridge cover on the bass

Wow , the bass is looking fantastic Rick ! It will all come to life when the strings are on What a thing of beauty

[quote name='rodney72a' timestamp='1354418791' post='1885803'] Seems to have disappeared from the website... Sold already? [/quote] I'm glad it's not just me that spotted that. I thought I was going mad

That is an incredibly good looking bass !!

[quote name='jonthebass' timestamp='1354311469' post='1884824'] The DeTemple guitars are eye watering amounts of money (US$6k and up!) so this bass will be a pretty penny! [/quote] Wow, that's serious money. You could get a very nice vintage fender for that kind of money Does look nice though
