Fender Squier Vintage Modified Lightweight **SOLD** £350 North Staffordshire

[dodgnofski]

Fender Squier Vintage Modified Precision P/J Bass from 2014 in good used condition, there 'maybe' just a few, marks consistent with age and normal use, but I can't see any with my old eyes. 

Very rare, especially in this condition and offering the best of both Worlds having both a Precision pickup in the usual place and a Jazz pickup in the bridge position, which are ‘Duncan Designed’ and very powerful.

It took me over two years to find this, as they don't come up for sale very often and were only produced for a very short period of time.

Nice low action that is so very easy to play and incredibly lightweight at just 3.4kg or 7.5lbs in ‘old money’ Plus there are a vast array of tones available by combining the separate volume controls and master tone control, which have been upgraded to a super high quality KIOgen wiring loom, potentiometers and vintage Cap.

I was going to upgrade the Pickups and tuners too, but couldn't see the point as the bass holds tune really well & the Pickups have plenty of 'whumph'

Has had a really good set up and a new set of Flatwound strings fitted. Original High Mass Bridge.

Plays as well as most of the P Basses I've been lucky enough to own, or play during the past half Century and even better than many.

May be interested in a trade, p/x for a P or PJ with a 44mm nut and a nice low action - Japan 62P or Bitsa etc 

The last pic is for illustration purposes only to show how good the Bass looks fitted with a Tort pick guard - (which is not included in the sale, as it was a gift) - It is a standard 13 hole guard that just fits perfectly with no  need for extra holes and they are readily available on the T'inter. The main pics show the Bass with the original black original pick guard fitted as Standard.

The finish on this Bass is superb and the build quality is excellent.Comes with an unpadded JHS Gigbag and can be well packaged & posted via Parcelforce 24 for £24.95 - Thanks for looking 👍
