FDC484950 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 (edited) Sold For sale is my lovely Fender Precision Bass. It’s made in Japan and serial number dates it to approx 1988/1990 and was made in the Fujigen plant. It’s light (approx 3.7Kgs) and looks like a basswood body with maple neck and a lovely slab of rosewood with dark stripes for the fingerboard. Neck has a nice vintage tint to it. It sounds fabulous and has a resonance and depth that’s comparable with vintage P-basses and is a sheer joy to play. I tried this out in a shop with 7-8 other p basses, some Japanese, some US and a couple of 70’s models and this was head and shoulders above the lot. I’m only selling as I’m a 5-6 string player and miss the B string pickup test! Front and rear are in good condition but the bottom edge is a bit roadworn. There are also some lacquer cracks around the neck but expected with a 30-year old bass. It really does have a vintage vibe! Hardware is fine - however jack socket is a bit crackly and probably needs replacing. Minimal fret wear and neck is nice and straight. It comes with Hipshot Ultralite lollipop tuners. If I get the asking price they’re included - if not I will restore the stock tuners (which work fine but add about 300g extra to the headstock). Collection only on this as there I no case with the bass. No trades please. Edited February 28, 2020 by Silvia Bluejay SOLD 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FDC484950 Posted February 18, 2020 Author Share Posted February 18, 2020 Hmm probably priced a little high. I’ll take £600 with the Hipshots or £540 back to stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
