bump!

thank you Chris!

It´s a great instrument and I am not easily letting go, because I don´t think, I will find another for that kind of money.
I´ve had my fingers on many Precision basses - hm, after all those years it obviously turns out, this must be my favorite model . I still check them out, every time I´m in stores buying strings or stuff. But it seems, I was only lucky once with an instrument of the wall of a guitar-shop. Thinking of it, this actually was the only bass I remember buying new in a shop.

Though I guess that little Hohner I got for X-mas in 1988 was probably bought new by Santa Claus as well.

[color=#696969][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]Hi,[/size][/font][/color]

[color=#696969][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]up for sale is my wonderful Precision.[/size][/font][/color]

[color=#696969][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]In its 13 years the Olympic White nitro-lacquer has darkened beautifully to a slightly warmer shade of white, which adds emphasis on the nice grain of wood. And looks so much better than when new. Fitting this natural ageing process in color, I had a luthier age the lacquer even more, to have the look and feel of a much older instrument. [/size][size=3] IMHO new or as new instruments always lack vibe and personality. This one is just the opposite, it feels part of you immediately - and that´s not only my experience. [/size][/font][/color][color=#696969][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]Also, you will not anymore mind those new little dings & dongs that you can´t avoid anyway. They will just fit into the picture [/size][/font][/color][color=#696969][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=3] . Have no hesitation to use this bass as intended - and play it as hard as it deserves it. [/size][/font][/color][color=#696969][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]And leave your silk-gloves in the bass´s tolex case. [/size][/font][/color]

[color=#696969][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]This one is not to be hung on a wall and just looked at.[/size][/font][/color]

[color=#696969][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]Well, there is nothing like a good sounding Fender Precision Bass, but I should guess, you know that! In fact, I always thought this one to be the best sounding Precision of the countless I´ve tried in shops over the years - seems that´s why I bought it back then. [/size][/font][/color][color=#696969][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=3]You may expect a woody, resonating and punchy sound, up the neck being a bit more mellow. Very sweet. [/size][/font][/color]

2 cool Trace Elliot Rigs I own.[color=#000000][font=Helvetica][size=3] [/size][/font][/color]
But I might be parting with them... [color=#000000][font=Helvetica][size=3] [/size][/font][/color]

[size=3][u][color=#232323]Trace Elliot MP11 & RA 500 SuperX: [/color][/u]the legendary and rare programmable preamp with foot-controller plus its matching 2x250 Watts stereo power amp. Very loud. Not a digital little noise making box.[/size]
[size=3][u][color=#232323]Trace Elliot VA350 Valve Head: [/color][/u]an all tube preamp + the unparalleled GP11 preamp controlling a switchable 80/160/350 Watts all tube power-amp. The most versatile and reliable tube-amp built by TE.[/size]
[size=3][u][color=#232323]Trace Elliot Multistack 2102 & 1182: [/color][/u]hard to find wedge shaped cabinets, to be used stand alone or in any combination, providing punchy sound from behind when stacked or in front of you, used as bass-monitors. Versatile in set-up and much easier to move around than a 4x10.[/size]
