FS/FT 1988/9 MIJ Fender Precision (black/maple) SOLD!!!!

Having now left the Jam/Weller tribute band I was in, this bass is surplus to requirements.



NB: The fretless underneath is NOT for sale.

It's a "Made in Japan" Fender with an H serial prefit, so from 1988/9. Overall condition is good: the body does have a few bumps and scratches, but nothing through to the wood. The main scratches are at the top of the scratchplate, where a previous owner used to push their pick in for storage, and there is also a small, shallow dent in the top under where your right forearm would rest. The neck has one small scrape on the back that is through to the wood, but it's smooth under the hand and doesn't affect playability at all.





You can also hear it being played in my LB30 review here

All original, as far as I can tell, apart from the saddle adjustment screws, which I have swapped out for shorter ones so they don't dig into your arm. I still have the originals and will include them.

Weight is a shade under 9lbs, and balance is good.

Comes with a standard Fender gig bag.

[b]£450 firm[/b] collected from NE Hampshire or Central London (WC2).

Cheers

Gareth

Not to worry.

I've got a 1993 build on the way from Japan at the moment as for the first time in 25 years of playing, I am falling in love with Precisions. I'm wondering if I need one always loaded with flats, and another with rounds, maybe the same again but with different 'boards....

Where did you get the shorter bridge screws from by the way? I could do with some.

I got them from [url="http://www.westfieldfasteners.co.uk/A2_ScrewBolt_GrubCone_M3.html"]here[/url]. 8mm for the E and G, 10mm for the A and D if I remember correctly.

It's a very good looking bass, but not for me thanks.
