1983 JV Squier Precision Bitsa Project Bass
£625

Posted (edited)

This is a parts bass made with a JV Precision neck and neck plate, all the original JV hardware (tuners, string tree, bridge and headstock strap button).

Pickup is a mid 2000’s MIM Fender and the electrics were with the body which is a Y series early 2000 Chinese Squier. The scratch-plate is from a Korean Squier and I also have the original but cracked Chinese scratch-plate. 

I bought the JV neck and parts minus the original body. The neck had to have a snapped screw removed from the neck butt before it was doweled and filled by the luthier. The serial number, neck plate and Squier hardware are all from one bass. The neck plate has some corrosion but the JV serial number is visible. 

Although listed as a project the bass plays well as is. It has been set up with a low action wearing D’Addario strings. The truss-rod works and frets are good. The necks on these early Japanese Squiers are fantastic as no doubt you are aware. The instrument is reasonably light at 3.8kgs and sounds like a typical Precision. 

Selling at what it cost me in parts. 

 

No trades sorry, pickup preferred but I can post in the UK only at buyer’s cost. I will include a worn but well padded gig bag.
