Hi Guys,

I am after my new obsession, the 51 reissue precision (2 tone sunburst)

I have completed the google rounds and have come back with nothing. I know they stopped making these a few years back.

Any information about these would be greatly appreciated. Perhaps owners comments or potential leads to purchasing one.

Many thanks.

The Lollar pickup is a killer. Incredible and sounds exactly what I'd expect a single coil precision to sound like.

I had one in my Warmoth '54

If you're going to get one then do it now as the prices have been creeping up. I bought my 2 tone one from an Ebay seller in Japan for £260 delivered about 7 or 8 years ago before they were discontinued and therefore desirable. I've never found anything that sounds anything like it plus they are really, really cool basses

I am going to sell the sting signature precision. Plays great, but not comfortable with the 12th fret inlay. Hopefully i can find a home for it with somebody that would appreciate it.

If i manage to get a 51 reissue i would look into a SD pick-up. Depending how the stock pick up sounds.

The price tags are huge now, like to know what they retailed at when new. I keep actively checking for 51 reissues but not that many for sale i guess.
