and ive owned a couple of 70s precisions in my time

ive got the fender bass book at my disposal and there isnt one bass in there 60s or 70s like that

he just said his trusted music shop may be wrong so i have sent him the link to this

i just text him to say he should refund you

cheers ash have been enjoying the bitsa precision! sorry i didnt leave feedback sooner very pleased with it plays really well and the communication throughout was spot on thanks again

the thing is he sold you that as a genuine fender and it most definitely isnt so on that basis he should return your money

i dont know mate you can always ask there advice

here is a link to mine when i had it up for sale the bridge is different but i changed mine [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/183189-encore-ltd-83-bass/page__p__1759988__hl__encore%20ltd__fromsearch__1#entry1759988"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/183189-encore-ltd-83-bass/page__p__1759988__hl__encore%20ltd__fromsearch__1#entry1759988[/url]

im pretty certain its an encore ltd83 i have one myself i text the bloke telling him i thought it was fake and i contacted gumtree that bloke mustve known its fake he should give you your money back

i saw this on gumtree yesterday and emailed the bloke who text me back saying he had alot of interest i text him back and said count me out i think its fake he never replied back here is link to thread i started yesterday : [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/189423-saw-this-fender-precision-on-gumtree-its-a-fake-isnt-it/"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/189423-saw-this-fender-precision-on-gumtree-its-a-fake-isnt-it/[/url]

i think your spot on musky, because i actually own a encore ltd83 and apart from the string tree it looks exactly like it and they just dont have the same colour as a 70s fender much paler

im under the impression only jazzes had the contour body decal

hi saw this on gumtree today a precision 62 he says with a 70s decal with contour body decal?

no i have owned jap, korean and usa but my two faves where my 77 us and my 98 hot rod p

i must say i have owned 75 precision 77 precision two e serial jap precisions jap squier series korean squier series and american 98 hot rod i prefer american precisions

i have session compressor too wish he could fix that bad boy

yeah i live in basingstoke too i think i may have phoned him but spares arent available

i dont mean to be funny but have you seen a drummer? some of them live in haylofts and only come out in the witching hour when they can smell food or cider all im saying is primeval !!! dont use your brain smell the cider!!!!!!!!!

i used to have an old session amp many years ago that used to cut out took it to guitar village in farnham and the bloke who did repairs remedy was to solder the internal fuse into its holder?the fuse never blew in first place! it was a mosfet fault of some kind, anyways amp never was repaired but i learnt my lesson and after invested my money into a trce elliot ah300smx which i still have today

i played bass in my early teens then decided i wanted to play drums so had a drum kit for a few years then went back to bass. i guess if you want to you can, you dont have to be neil peart to keep a rythmn! i mean the white stripes did ok didnt they and there drumming was nothing fancy !

as a bassist today ive mostly been failing, been out to get some wheels for my car came home hands covered in dirt from the tyres cut my hand removing the old spigot ring so tonight i will refrain from my bass

i tweaked action on my 505 when i got that and it just fell into place nicely,i was expecting a nightmare as it is the first five string i own. im a big fan of the bartolini pickups though when you get your strings sorted im sure your gonna enjoy the bass
