Lightweight ‘74 Fender Precision I traded for my Five String P Bass after I had a stroke seven years ago. I had hoped that I might eventually regain some playing ability, and still vaguely do, but owning a nice Skjold and this Fender is daft, and I have better uses for my cash. I’ll keep the Skjold, but both these basses deserve better than more or less permanently hanging on a wall. The guys at Bass Direct loved this Bass when I took it there last year to get fitted with strap-locks. Unfortunately Mark wasn’t there but Marcus and the other guy working there said it was a nice Bass, so nice that one of them offered to buy it from me, but at that stage I wasn’t selling. Believe me, I still wish I wasn’t. I am in Milton Keynes, and really don’t want to post this Bass. It came with a hard case, but no metalwork. I’d prefer to wait until someone could pick it up in person, though I am willing to drive an hour in any direction except South into London to meet up. I don’t know if they still hang out here, but I used to deal with Platypus, Terry Day, HappyJack and many more and I think this bass used to belong to Warwickhunt. I’ve probably forgotten loads, my number is 07976 827138. Thanks. It’s a lovely bass that deserves to be played.

A Zoom B3n with DI would be a terrific FX box indeed! I don't remember what they used to charge. I had a VT-Bass that I was looking at having it done, but before I made up my mind, this one appeared for sale in here and I bought it. So I had two of these for a while. They were my source of overdrive for the RATM band, one set with low gain and fat, and another higher gain and treblier. Because they have a built-in speaker simulation they actually sound pretty good when you go DI. With other pedals you sound great when you hear your amp, but unless you mic the cab, when you engage the distortion it sounds often too fizzy out in front. I have an OmniCabSim for speaker simulation, so I can use any overdrive pedal I want now I recently got the SA Aftershock and the idea is to use that instead of the VT-Bass, as I sometimes want slightly different flavours of dirt, and the Aftershock gives me that and more (if I get around to reading the manual! ) plus presets... but I do miss being able to see where the knobs are set up at a glance, as on the VT-Bass... so I might end up keeping it if nobody wants it. You can never have enough dirt boxes, right?

Here is my absolutely beautiful Bass Doc 60's Precision. It is awesome and without doubt the best Precision I have had. I bought this from Pestie off the site last year and it has been gigged a handful of times, it sounds great.. This bass looks, plays and sounds amazing, it balances perfectly and weighs approx 3.5kg on my bathroom scales. Here are the specifications provided on the original ad: Fender 62 reissue body Allparts Jazz neck with slab board Fender vintage bridge Antiquity pick up Bass Doc Tortie scratch plate Gotoh reverse tuners Fender neck plate OBBM loom D'addario 40 -100 nickel wounds This is a sale only because I have my P bass needs covered with a Yamaha BB and just need to move one out to create some space. There is a Fender gig bag with the bass. I live in Milton Keynes and would ideally like this collected. I am willing to travel a reasonable distance if that helps and I will courier at the buyers expense if needed although I will need to get a box for shipping. Thanks for looking. I would like £550 please and it's worth every penny and more. NO TRADES THANK YOU.

good choice.
