lynxus69 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 (edited) For sale Fender Precision made in USA in 1995 (or early '96) with upgrades. Strings through the body. Color: Black Cherry Red, darker and metallic on the edges and a bit brighter and see through to the middle (but a little less contrast then my camera picked up) Upgrades: BadAss III bridge, DiMarzio DP122 pickups, black scratchplate (original Fender) Sale also includes original bridge, pups and white scratchplate. Also original hard case. Condition: well...see the pics. There are few dents (mainly at the bottom back, one above the neck plate and small one on the back of the headstock) and a bit of buckle rush. There are to small dents on the bottom front, close to the pots, but except that bass looks [b]very good[/b] [b]from the front[/b]. I bought this bass in such condition already, so I didn't have to worry about removing my belt when I play. People pay hundreds of pounds extra for "road worn" treatment. This one is genuine road worn Pics: [url="http://www.flickr.com/photos/40700046@N03/8395713495/in/set-72157632560066717/lightbox/"]http://www.flickr.co...66717/lightbox/[/url] Sound: Full Precision Thump, woody, nicely matured with great sustain. Price: £570 with BadAss bridge or £530 without. I could also remove DiMarzio's (-£25). However.. the bridge is great and the pups even better (precise with nice growly mids, just perfect ) , so I wouldn't recommend downgrading! I'm based in London. Already sold few items on BC (MM Stingray last week!), so check my feedbacks Edited January 28, 2013 by lynxus69 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassman Rich Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 That is a great looking bass, and if I didnt have a 2003 one in Light blue, would have it. Its amazing that these fantastic sounding and playing basses can be had for such a low price, I know I thought about selling or trading mine but once I got it out of the case, photographed it with all the case candy etc just couldnt do it!!

Ashborygirl Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I actually don't mind the damage, it's all use not abuse. Reminds me of the Nate Mendel (sp?) signature bass, good price too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't like white scratchplate, black looks more mean \m/ . Then BadAss bridge was absolute must have. Believe or not - initially I had put Seymour's on it (as Nate) but wasn't happy with the sound (you don't need extra bottom end on P bass) so then swapped them for DiMarzio's (which give nice midrange growl and more detail) and couldn't be more happy I guess me and Nate have similar taste (I discovered his model just recently) Also thanks for "it's all use not abuse" comment. All these dents were done by the previous owner (I did just the buckle rush) but I think too that guitars should be used not just polished Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lynxus69 Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 Dear Basschaters! Am I selling this bass too cheap? It took me good 4 weeks to sell my Stingray in mint condition (2 price drops!). And now after just one day I've got 3 comments and [b]5 [/b]buyers for this Precision! I'm shocked Thought the market was dead. Anyway - [b]SALE PENDING![/b] I'm sorry to disappoint all of you who missed it but it looks like the bass is going to [i]Richardd[/i] with whom I had pleasure to deal with previously. At least I know she'll go into good hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynxus69 Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 Richardd changed his mind as he needed bass for tonight and I couldn't be sure would it be delivered in time. Therefore - back on sale! This time on first come, first served basis though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
