Jebo1 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 (edited) Here is my delightful Precision Affinity Bass which is finished in a delightful black. It's strung with round wound strings, plays OK and was made in Indonesia. Everything works perfectly well. The action is slightly high, although I think a decent turn of the truss rod and the use of an appropriately sized Allen Key will sort that out. It might sound stupid, but I am learning to play DB and I thought this having a high action might be a bit like James Jamerson. Well, I can play all those lines despite of, not because of this bass. The aesthetic is questionable. There are a couple of marks on the bass (pictured) and the bottom strap button has taken a whack. I've got the button and will include it of course. The neck is nice and straight. Few marks here and there, but nothing major. The previous owner tried to colour in the scratch plate with a black felt tip. Who knows why? It's a bit, well, rubbish. I have a spare black one but I think this might take some fettling to get on. I'll chuck it in with the package so you can always sell it on if you don't want it. I can't really say a huge amount about this guitar, only that it's in average condition and plays in a similar fashion. I bought this as my 'downstairs' bass. My music room is in the loft and some days I just get lazy. However, my wife has told me that I need to stop being a baby and walk upstairs, hence this is for sale. I've priced it at £85 delivered, but I don't know whether this is a reasonable amount to ask for or an absolute travesty. Fingers crossed it's the former. I will consider breaking this into bits if you want bits.
