ianwild16 Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 (edited) Hi Here's my Mexican Fender Precision Bass for sale. [attachment=36463:full_frontal.JPG] I'm going to try and be as honest as I can with the description. Black body with a 3-ply (black/white/black) scratchplate and maple neck with a rosewood fretboard. [attachment=36454:body_1.JPG] [attachment=36455:body_2.JPG] [attachment=36456:body_3.JPG] The serial number is MZ1106549, which I guess dates it to 2001. [attachment=36466:head_frontal.JPG] [attachment=36467:logo.JPG] I bought it approx 24 months ago off ebay from a guy in York. I had it professionally set up when I got it. Since then the neck or intonation has never needed altering. [attachment=36461:downwards.JPG] Its currently strung with elite stadium '45's with have been on for about 2 months. Once the new strings have settled in it very rarely needs much adjustment in tuning. It has had no modifications or any other work needed on it. [attachment=36454:body_1.JPG] [attachment=36451:action_2.JPG] [attachment=36452:action_4.JPG] The electrics are absolutely spot on, with no crackles. The neck is very fast and the back has started to gain a nice glossier feel to it, from use. There are no buzzes or dead spots. There is one small mark on the back of the neck which you can't feel when playing. Its about 2cm down from the skunk stripe, on the underside. [attachment=36468:neck_back.JPG] Fret wear is minimal, there are some marks to the frets on the E, A and D strings up to approx the 7th fret, but they are too small to photograph. [attachment=36462:fretboard.JPG] The head has started to mellow to a nice yellow tinge. [attachment=36466:head_frontal.JPG] There are three small nicks to the head, the largest being right at the top - nothing major. [attachment=36460:Chip_headstock.JPG] I have used it for gigging with my band but it has always lived in its Gator hard case when not in use. There are some surface scratches on the body, as you would expect from a used guitar, but these are all very minor with no chips through the paint. They are in the usual places - buckle rash, edges and scratchplate. They are all too small to photograph. If you wanted to make the effort they could be polished out, but I think it adds to the vibe of the guitar. [attachment=36458:bridge.JPG] [attachment=36459:bridge_2.JPG] Some of the screws on the scratchplate have started to tarnish as well as a couple of the pole peices on the pick up. I assume this is just from 'sweat' (....mmmm!) from playing. Again, I should imagine they will clean up if you wanted to do it, but its the mojo, man! I am seriously keen on keeping my guitars clean and it is always polished after use with a lint free microfibre cloth and Jim Dunlop 65 Formula guitar polish! All the stcratches described above were on the guitar when I bought it. Like I said, a bought it off ebay, but I'm loathed to sell it on there due to ebay and paypal fees. Thats why I want cash on collection only. I only want back what I paid for it - £275. Or I can sell it with a black Gator case for £295 I've had scout about on ebay and the last Mexican P Bass in the UK went for £285 - [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Fender-Precission-Bass-Guitar-Immaculate-Condition_W0QQitemZ300365638513QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV?hash=item45ef2feb71"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Fender-Precission-Ba...=item45ef2feb71[/url] Give me a bell of you're interested! - 07964866512 Thanks Ian Edited November 16, 2009 by ianwild16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
