Raslee Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 (edited) These basses need little introduction and are totally superb P basses in my opinion punching way above their weight. This one is up for sale/trade with a heavy heart but I need to sell on to fund some upgrades to my other basses that I regularly gig with. This bass comes as standard plus the additional upgrades of a tort guard (original anodized gold plate also included) and a hipshot D-tuner (original tuner included). Stock pic (actual pics below): The Fender 50s Precision Bass Features:[list] [*]Body: Alder [*]Neck: 1-Piece Maple, "C" Shape, (Gloss Urethane Finish) [*]Fingerboard: Maple, 7.25" Radius (184 mm) [*]No. of Frets: 20 Vintage Style Frets [*]Pickups: 1 Precision Bass Split Single-Coil Pickup (Mid) [*]Controls: Volume, Tone [*]Pickup Switching: None [*]Bridge: American Vintage Precision®/Jazz® Bass [*]Machine Heads: Vintage Style Reverse Tuning Machines [*]Hardware: Nickel/Chrome [*]Pickguard : Gold Anodized Aluminum [*]Scale Length: 34" (863.6 mm) [*]Width at Nut: 1.750" (44.5 mm) [*]Unique Features: Vintage Styling, Anodized Aluminum Pickguard, Synthetic Bone Nut [*]Strings: Fender Super Bass 7250ML, NPS, [*]Gauges: (.045, .065, .080, .100) [*]Accessories: Deluxe Gig Bag included [/list] This bass was around £850 last year and is pretty much immaculate, I still have the receipt somewhere and the upgrades were around an extra £100. It's mainly been the home/studio bass and the tone is to die for, best P tone i've ever had to be honest. I'm looking for bargain £550 as standard or [b]£650[/b] with upgrades + courier costs (around £20 or less in the UK or collect from South Devon UK). or Trades are very specific (plus cash my way): John East Pre Uni deluxe 4 knob and/or a 5 knob version...ideally with all the knobs. Aguilar 4J-60 pick ups (4string jazz) Aguilar Supersingle D2 5 string (P2 size) pickups ....may at a push consider something like a Squier CV P bass and at least £450 my way.

I much prefer this to my mates USA P too, the tone is very 'vintage' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
