Fender Precision Thinline PBAC
£700
Southend on Sea

I purchased this Fender Precision Thinline PBAC from BC stalwart @Happy Jack on the 18th July last year. It's a beautiful thing, sounds amazing, but, unfortunately, the old long scale bass aches are back so I am returning to my short scale basses. It breaks my heart to let this go as I'd been waiting for one to come up for years, but, as I said, I just can't handle long scales anymore, I just need to finally give them up altogether.

 

It is a glorious bass, it's character and charm enhanced by a selection of (purely cosmetic) dings and marks wholly commensurate with its age. It's been played about four times at home rehearsals since I bought it. Please bear in mind that these are unusual basses that usually sell for between £1100-£1500 second hand.

 

Bass is located in Southend, happy to meet somewhere to hand over or drive to you (I like driving, try me).

The bass went straight to Guitar Technical Services for a Pro Set-Up as soon as I bought it, not that it needed it really, I just always do it.

The bass comes with a slightly shabby but robust Mono Classic Bass Guitar Case

Here is @Happy Jack's original advert.

Here is my NBD post.

Happy to answer any questions or provide more pics, just message me.

No trades thanks.

Really sorry to see this, Frank. That bass is a truly lovely thing, and I know how much you wanted it.

 

 It's an absolute doozie and I'm beyond gutted to let it go. Thing is, nothing is worse than a bass idling in the rack when it could be being played. It sounds perfect with our music too, but all roads inevitably lead old men to short scales...

Does it have any kind of buffer added to the piezo circuit?

 

No idea Sir, beyond my technical knowledge, as are most things.
