Hi all,

I'm selling my workhorse of a Mexican Fender Precision bass! I brought this new in 2018 and tested six different P basses in the shop at the time, including the newly introduced player series. Out of the bunch, this one was the most resonant and lively sounding, so it came home with me! It has an Alder body and maple neck and fingerboard. Since then it's had a number of upgrades as follows:

- Delano PMVC 4FE/M2 pickup

- Hipshot HB7 tuners

- Fender hi-mass brass bridge

- Luminlay side dots professionally installed

- Fret level and dress professionally done last year

- Custom 3D printed thumb rest (designed and manufactured myself)

- Comes with two different tort pickguards and one that's matte black (see pics)

This is a killer bass for the price, the Delano pickup has a pretty hot output and always sounds great in the mix in all styles. It plays really well and the neck profile isn't too chunky, more slim and flat, the nut width is 40mm. The thumb rest can be removed easily as it's only held on by the pickguard mounting screws.

It's in good condition, there are a few cosmetic marks on the bottom of the body and your standard mark on the top of the headstock, but I struggled to find anything else worth mentioning. No issues with the neck or truss rod. The bass weighs 4 kg (8.82 lbs) and balances very well seated or on a strap.

I'm looking for £450 for this bass. I can ship in a chunky soft case within the UK, although collection from Leeds or meet up half way would be preferred.
