Clarky Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 (edited) Bought recently for a project that requires a black bass (clue: goth) but quickly found my damaged left hand was still not up to the neck, hence replaced with JMJ Mustang. I added an after-market Musiclily tort scratchplate (for which screws are a little bit skewiff but reasonably aligned) and also has black after-market scratchplate (which was on the bass when I bought it). Weighs a bit under 9 pounds. Dates to 2002-4. New Fender 9050L flats. Fairly good condition, no major dents or dings, just some surface scratches and hazing. Only other thing to note is two holes above bridge where presumably someone once installed a Badass or other bridge but which are barely visible, what with the bass being black! Collection SW13 (south of Hammersmith Bridge) or post £20ish (at cost) on top. PS, will come with old school protective but unattractive hardcase.

jrixn1 Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I think a Q serial with "Crafted in Japan" indicates 2002-2004. https://support.fender.com/en-us/knowledgebase/article/KA-01874 I love my CIJ Precision - sold all my other basses!

Clarky Posted August 25, 2023 Author Share Posted August 25, 2023 This is how it looked with black s/p (photo from previous owner), which will come with the bass - in case you are tortphobic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
