Farida P, eBay £95. Natural Ash & Rosewood neck.
I knew it was going to be probably good from the general Farida love on here...but crikey this Precision bass is truly amazing. I wanted something cheap to do party gigs etc but got a bass that plays like a £500+ bass, really low action (lower than my 74 Jazz) and spot on intonation too.
The neck is smooth, and more jazz width like, which is a real bonus for me. The sound is phat and defined, articulate, good tone control through out...a real soul/funk monster indeed. The build quality is up there with previous Laklands that i have owned, maybe i just got lucky...but bloomin heck i wasn't expecting it to be this good, this is up there with MIA Fenders too i kid you not -may have to try some flats on it......right its back to some P playing.
