Squier Classic Vibe '60s Precision Bass £250 posted (no trades, thanks) Nut Width: 1.685" (42.8 mm) Weight on digital kitchen scales: 3.872kg (8lb 9oz) Full specs are on Fender's website: https://www.fender.com/en-GB/squier-electric-basses/precision-bass/classic-vibe-60s-precision-bass/0374510500.html Some changes from stock: tug bar added holes added for bridge cover (not included) bridge changed (steel, standard 19mm spacing) knobs changed (now dome top; originally were flat top) Recently restrung with Adagio flats. A couple of minor points: Some light scuffing, which is hard to photograph. Really only visible if you angle the body towards a light source and go looking for it. The tuners are stock but there are additional screw holes underneath where alternate tuners were previously installed. Happy to answer any questions or take additional photos.

Still for sale. Couple of clips of the bass in action:

Functional protective ABS case of generic/unknown brand (unless you recognize the tag logo in the penultimate photo?). Some discolouring and scuffs on the outside. All six latches work, but no key. Inside is in good condition, including the 'fur' and accessory compartment flap. Definitely fits Precision bass, and I suspect Jazz and other popular shaped basses - bring your bass along to check the fit for sure. Collection from Bristol.

Hipshot Licensed Ultralite Bass Tuning Machines, 1/2", Clover, Chrome 4 x bass side (e.g. for a normal Fender inline headstock) I think the screws are starting to strip, so I'll also include a new set of replacement screws. They are not Hipshot branded, but they are the same thread size. £48 posted Hipshot's website: https://hipshotproducts.com/collections/bass-tuning/products/hb6-1-2-ultralite-licensed-bass-tuning-machine?variant=43550939016 Measurements etc: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1574/0577/files/206K.PDF?147414096911308745

This walnut Classic Vibe 70s P bass is from Squier's current line and is a great player with a lovely neck. Specs from https://www.fender.com/en-GB/squier-electric-basses/precision-bass/classic-vibe-70s-precision-bass/0374520592.html: Colour - Walnut Body Material - Nyatoh Neck Material - Maple Neck Shape - "C" Shape Fingerboard Material - Maple Fingerboard Radius - 9.5" (241 mm) Fret Size - Narrow Tall Nut Width - 1.685" (42.8 mm) Weight on my kitchen scales: 3.75kg (8lb 4oz) The pickups and pickguard still have the protective plastic film - I never got round to peeling them off! The original black pickguard will be included as well as the current brown tort one. The strings are Fender 9050 flatwounds, less than six months old. The cavity has been shielded with copper foil. A second 0.047uf cap has been added in parallel to the stock one, which makes it 0.1uf in total. The difference is that it now gets slightly darker than stock when you roll down the tone knob. Very easy to remove if you don't want it - I can do that if you prefer. The tuners are replacements from a Fender Modern Player jazz bass. There have previously been two other types of tuners installed, so there are extra screw holes and a couple of small chips in the back of the headstock - these are hidden from view behind the current tuners. Happy to answer questions or take more photos etc - please just ask. £260 including UK postage. Looking only for a sale - no trades, thanks.

GHS Bass Precision Flats, five-string set M3050-5 Gauges: 45, 65, 85, 105, 126 Cut for a standard 34" Fender-style bass with 4+1 headstock. Good condition: three months old and haven't had much use. https://www.ghsstrings.com/products/11278-bass-precision-flatstm?category_id=1964710-precision-flatstm £28 posted Reduced to £20 posted

£325 collected from Bristol. Sale only - not interested in any trades. I can post within the UK for £20. This is a great Precision bitsa in beautiful vintage white, with (removable) pickup & bridge chrome covers and tug bar completing the old school look. With its flatwounds strings, I've been enjoying playing Motown on it - but a Precision suits most musical styles. Body The body is from a 2013 Fender Squier Matt Freeman Precision. Colour: Vintage White Body Material: Basswood Hardware: Chrome Bridge: 4-Saddle HiMass Bridge with Brass Saddles Misc: Knurled Chrome Dome Control Knobs, Tug Bar. The original electronics developed an intermittent crackle, so they have been removed and a KiOgon loom was installed this week. This has a solderless pickup connection, so it's very easy if you did want to experiment with other pickups. Having said that, the stock pickups sound great to me and I never felt the need to change them. The bridge and pickup covers were imported from America (due to the HiMass bridge being a slightly different size to a standard Fender bridge). The tort pickguard is a replacement; I don't have the the original black one. There is a small scratch by the G-string side of the bridge. There are some paint imperfections near the neck join. The chrome pickup cover has some wear on it - only visible from some angles. Neck The neck is from a 2021 Fender Squier Classic Vibe 60s Precision Bass. Neck Material: Maple Neck Finish: Tinted Gloss Urethane Neck Shape: "C" Shape Scale Length: 34" (86.36 cm) Fingerboard Material: Indian Laurel Fingerboard Radius: 9.5" (241 mm) Fret Size: Narrow Tall Nut Width: 1.685" (42.8 mm) The tuners are the stock ones; however there are alternate screw holes underneath where third-party tuners were previously installed. Misc The neck join is ok but not air-tight (this is cosmetic). Strung with new Adagio flats. Weight on digital kitchen scales: 3.975kg (8lb 12oz) without the chrome covers. Happy to answer any questions so please just ask if you need any more photos or information.

Thanks all for the interest. Sorry I only had one to sell! Now sold.

Very well-used, torn, Tom & Will double bass case. Missing a handle on the side of the upper bout, right-hand side. The worst tear is on the front of upper bout. Repaired with Tenacious Tape but the repair has failed. There is a repair near the bridge handle which is ok. At the bottom of the lower bout, the right-hand side seam is starting to tear; the left-hand side has been repaired but is starting to come away. External tape is Tenacious Tape; internal tape is duct tape. If you have use for it, it's yours for £15, which is the cost of posting in a cardboard box. I have some other stuff to take to the dump on Monday 28th March, so that's the deadline!

@stewblack I'm covering for another bassist so I'm a bit busier than usual! Dropping price to £450 collected from Bristol, or perhaps I can deliver/meet somewhere. I've also looked into posting, and UPS is coming up at £32 (for a box 84 x 58 x 46 cm, 22kg). I could go 50/50 on this cost with a buyer. Send me a message to discuss anything!

The thing is that wood density varies from piece to piece. A quick look at Sweetwater and Peach Guitars shows a range from 8lb 3.5oz to 9lb 2oz. I use a Salter digital kitchen scales to weigh basses - about £10, and comes in useful in the kitchen too!
