Steve Browning Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 (edited) Here's a rare beast! Price reduced to £500 Fender Japan 70's reissue Precision. This is the one with the US pickup. It's currently sporting a rather wonderful Kent Armstrong Vintage P pickup which can stay on it if you don't want to quibble about the price. It's a CIJ from 2000 in Capri Orange. The usual exceptional build quality you get from Japanese Fenders. Weight is a comfortable midge over 8.5lbs. I am not sure why but this one has a slab fingerboard when I would have expected it to be the 'veneer' type. The neck dimensions are more akin to a '62 bass but the headstock logo is definitely 70's. My other 70s reissues all have the veneer type of fingerboard so maybe this was some kind of special order I don't know. I imported it from Ishibashi a few years ago. I am happy to travel within reason and can parcel it up if necessary (for a suitable adjustment to the price). Feel free to ask any questions you may have.
