OutToPlayJazz Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 (edited) [b][font="Comic Sans MS"][size=5]This bass is now **SOLD**, subject to the usual... Many thanks for all the interest. Rich.[/size] [/font][/b] [size=4][font="Comic Sans MS"]Okay, here goes the second one of the day... Fender American Vintage Precision, complete with all covers, DR FatBeam strings, original AV-series case & all case candy. It's been said by several of the Precision aficionados around here that it's the best Precision they've played. The Beedster said that his AV came seriously close in sound to his original '64. Nitro finish, gorgeous polished rosewood fingerboard, vintage reverse tuners. It's got the lot. £900 for quick sale. No trades.

Not to mention the fact that I've been doing some consultancy work for the dealer in question & I'll get it at a lovely price as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreeneKing Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I'm surprised that this is up for sale so quickly Rich Having owned active Fenders in the past I can't help wondering if you're not going to regret this.

We'll see what happens, but as you know yourself, when you play a Status as your main bass, everything else is optional! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martthebass Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Don't need to say 'told yer so' Rich The only basses that stand the test of time in your house begin and end with an S. You will save yourself time and effort once you allow yourself to realise this. Tho I guess you'd have less fun...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just how the string winding should be - Creates more downforce on the end of the string and thusly more tension. But then again, what do I know? I usually play headless basses!
