0353203 Posted October 10, 2013 Posted October 10, 2013 (edited) Hi All, Up for sale is my 1972 sunburst Precision Bass, with original case. Nice light weight at a shade over 8lbs. Overall, she is in very good condition but as you might expect shows signs of playwear with the usual dings, dongs, scratches and scrapes....especially around the body edge and a decent one on the upper horn. Frets also show decent use, although she plays without buzz all the way up the neck. The neck pocket has been slightly scraped, presumably to improve the already low action (see pic). Please feel free to PM me with questions, requests for more pics etc. Cheers, Si [url="http://s906.photobucket.com/user/0353203simon/media/72%20Precision%20Bass/IMG_1563_zps30049e1e.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s906.photobucket.com/user/0353203simon/media/72%20Precision%20Bass/IMG_1571_zpsed2ca0b3.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s906.photobucket.com/user/0353203simon/media/72%20Precision%20Bass/IMG_9470_zps597f3fcf.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s906.photobucket.com/user/0353203simon/media/72%20Precision%20Bass/IMG_9469_zpsfc26d5a0.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s906.photobucket.com/user/0353203simon/media/72%20Precision%20Bass/IMG_9460_zps741060a6.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s906.photobucket.com/user/0353203simon/media/72%20Precision%20Bass/IMG_9477_zps6d384f4f.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s906.photobucket.com/user/0353203simon/media/72%20Precision%20Bass/IMG_9480_zps5e89ede7.jpg.html"][/url] [url="http://s906.photobucket.com/user/0353203simon/media/72%20Precision%20Bass/IMG_9475_zps21004e50.jpg.html"][/url] Edited October 12, 2013 by 0353203
karlfer Posted October 10, 2013 Posted October 10, 2013 Oh sh*t. Wondrous. Couple of hundred quid less and this would have put my Rick 63 aspirations into death spiral. Does the B mean it's a B width nut? Bump. Karl.

karlfer Posted October 10, 2013 Posted October 10, 2013 I'm originally from Darlington you know. You have to make allowances!
bassninja Posted October 10, 2013 Posted October 10, 2013 If you're interested in trades, I have a spare kidney. 1968 model, kept in a soft case for nearly 45 years, been gigged a bit, mind...
BassBod Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 I just got PBass envy...never thought that would happen...

Platypus Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 Dammit Si, I've been on a quest to reduce by little stash of basses and doing pretty well as it happens - then you go and do this!
AgentCooper Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 Good job I've just spent a grand elsewhere. Another Year of Birth Bass that got away

RandomBass Posted October 12, 2013 Posted October 12, 2013 Can't afford it, but have to say there is something so special about the beauty, simplicity and sheer class of a P such as this. Must get out of the Public Sector and earn some proper money again....
