[quote name='eneade' post='427444' date='Mar 6 2009, 06:39 PM']I bought a Precision bass to Steve last month and I seriously recommend him ! Packing was safe, shipping was fast, easy communication and item EXACTLY as described. Did I forgot to say I live in France ?[/quote] Thanks for the feedback, it was good doing business with you and I am glad that the Bass is being well used!

[quote name='Thornybank' post='427229' date='Mar 6 2009, 02:30 PM']Good comms. After we had agreed, he was offered something that might have been more what he wanted and less price (but they are exactly the same inside and mine was in better nick). Could have pulled out - but didn't. Class![/quote] Thanks Chris, a deal is a deal in my world.

Chris is a top guy to do business with! bought a pedal from him and it arrived the next day, before he even had my money..... Item exactly as described and well packed. Thanks Chris!

The Bass was ultra light and the Neck very beefy. Only trouble was that they wanted silly money for it!

[quote name='mathewsanchez' post='425446' date='Mar 4 2009, 07:22 PM']Shame your gonna pull the sale. I would love to give this a shot if I had the cash but a bass i've had up for a while doesn't seem to be selling. If I do manage to sell it i'll give you a call.[/quote] I felt that I had to do something as it has been sitting here for some time and I have dropped the price by large amounts several times, so I thought that it would be best to either sell it at a stupid price or pull it from sale and sit on it for a year or two. As you can see from below I am a P bass man through and through and Jazzes do not do it for me, simple as that. If you are interested in future drop me a line, I may still have it. -

[quote name='Status09' post='424259' date='Mar 3 2009, 04:06 PM']Hi Guys. Great bass you have for sale there, good luck. Im sure it will go fast at that price! I actually own the #2 MK signature Fender jazz. Its a really nice bass and plays really well. Nice punchy tone, although some people have given them bad reviews, I dont see what's wrong with them! (and to go off on a tangent, any one know how to make the rosewood fretboard look replenished? Mine seems to have dried out in places from wear over 10 years). All the best [/quote] Little bit of lemon Oil on a cloth and wipe the board. A small bottle will last your lifetime! -

[quote name='Bassassin' post='423972' date='Mar 3 2009, 11:03 AM']Cheers for that, although this is arguably even more of a mystery! Yasuki's a new one on me, it smacks of an importer's idea of a "Japanese-y" sounding name, like Kimbara & Sakai were. However this is clearly from the same source as the Asama bass & LP. A full autopsy might reveal some clues as to a manufacturer, but there are a lot of instruments out there that are destined to go unidentified, it seems. We can assume that many less recognisable guitars came from the Matsumoto Musical Instrument Manufacturers Association, a collective of smaller builders & suppliers in the region, which excluded the bigger & better known factories like Matsumoku & Fujigen. J.[/quote] The neck on the guit*r is remarkably like the neck on my Casio PG310 synth guit*r, which is very good quality. The Casio I think was made by Fujigen for Casio. I am guessing that it is mid 70's as it has the bullet truss rod and I cannot imagine that the Japanese would copy a crap design like that for long! On the neck plate it has Made in Japan stamped.

Here is the Guitar version [attachment=21342:Yasuki.jpg] [attachment=21343:Headstock_1.jpg] This one is branded Yasuki!

I have got the Guit*r version of this at home. I will dig it out and let you know who made it.

It's original Brazilian Rosewood. Joe has his name in the list somewhere, I think more and more Basschaters are making their way to his door. Met one yesterday when I was around there having a cup of Tea and talking 55P basses!

Nick, I know where you live. If it goes missing your the first one I will call on Work was done by Joe White, a very talented man who is in the process of turning a 51 butterscotch P into a 55 sonic blue for me... WOT and BBC, I knew this would have many different views which is why I posted, each to their own. At the end of the day I hope whoever owns it gets a fair price and the Bass gets a loving home!

Thumb wear is original, as are a number of other wear marks. As there was no paint left on it all paint wear has been done sympathetically by the Luthier. It still has its crack in the headstock by the E tuner, and there is wear on the back. The neck has genuine dirt and wear from 50 years of playing, half a century old this year!
