Timus Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Hi folks, I have a 2002 MIA Fender Precision (tobacco sunburst) that I bought in the US a few years ago. It is in excellent condition, it still has the original fender hard case, and even the original labels and receipt. I'm just wondering what's it worth? Thanks in advance, Tim R Scotland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timus Posted April 19, 2008 Author Share Posted April 19, 2008 To be honest I'm not sure weather to sell or not at the moment. Truth is I started life as a drummer but after band practice we used to swap instruments and I always played the bass - and wasn't too bad. When the band ended I sold the kit and got on with life but a few years ago I decided to see if I could learn how to play bass properly. While I did learn how to play 'a bit' I also learned I was nowhere near as good a bass player as I was a drummer.. So to sell or not to sell. I really don't know, either way its too much of a bass for a lightweight player like me. Not the best pic - but here one I took earlier: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparky Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Haha! I know I know beedster - just angling for some porn really! It might not be cricket from a marketplace point of view, but a free bump for Mr. Timus can't be a bad thing?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannybuoy Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Funny setting these quotes from just a few years ago, you're lucky to get one for less than £600 these days since Fender put their prices up, and when somebody recently put a wanted ad up willing to pay £500 for one all he got was 'good luck' type responses!

Gordon Thudmaster May Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 If it's a good Usa Fender P/bass with doc's etc, don't let it go for less than £750, there's examples on here! Just look! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truckstop Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Innit! I saw the post that said "....oh, about £700 new..." and immediately knew that this thread was at least 3 years old! Can't believe how much they cost these days, I'm amazed anyone's bothering to buy them new when there's so much out there for the same or less money!

paulmcnamara Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 I'd say worth £700 minimum here and other places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
