NBD Tokai Hard Puncher

Just acquired a new bass today from a lovely chap for what I think was a great price. It's a black/maple (quite possibly my favourite combo for a precision)Tokai Hard Puncher.

Not had a chance to give it welly yet through an amp and I think the strings could do with a change but I'm happy as Larry with it :)

Excuse the poor mobile photos.

Just managed to play the bass now. The strings need changing but even then the sustain is brilliant! The first precision bass I've played that's easy to play. I've played a few and the neck were too chunky but this is lovely. The output is pretty high too from the pickup. Happy chappy!

That is beautiful. Also my fave colours - BBM. Out of curiosity, how much does your Hard Puncher weigh - and what is the width of the neck at the nut?

I'm not too sure. I'll try get it weighed/measured tonight if I get the chance :) it does feel light but I'm used to playing my 5 string behemoth :lol:

Mine has quickly become my 'go to' bass. I put a set of La Bella flats on it and a set of Custom Shop 62 pickups in it and it sounds lush now.
