I'd say this is sonic. Absolutely lovely!

I'm really not a fan of valve gear, however, this looks like a serious bargain to me!

On Hold - Beautiful custom built Precision – constructed using premium parts, and loosely based on a 62–65 Fender P, by Howard, the Bassdoc. Gorgeous Sunburst, possibly Nitro but can't confirm this. Very dark slab rosewood J neck with a tinted Nitro finish. Gotoh reverse wind tuners. Specs as below: Fender '62 reissue body - beautifully sculpted. Allparts J neck with vintage tint nitro (slab board) Fender vintage bridge Kent Armstrong Antiquity pick up Bassdoc celluloid guard - very beautiful! Gotoh reverse wind tuners Fender neckplate Obbm loom Pro set-up with d'addario 40-100 nickel rounds, plays beautifully with a low action. Had a slight electronics buzz but attended to during set-up (now very quiet). In excellent used condition – no nasty dings, dents or scratches but a couple of minor bruises on the body - just slight impressions. Light at around 9lbs but I don't have a fully accurate weight. Comes with Fender gig bag and collection in Manchester or Birmingham. I may be able to ship by arrangement. Very regrettable sale but this was used for a project last year and I can't justify keeping it. I have a habit of buying Ps that I don't need - it was great to have a chance to gig this one last year and earlier this, and at these gigs the bass generated some incredibly admiring comments. Plenty more images - I'll try to get some up later or can email. I have over £600 in the bass but will accept £575.

On hold

really lovely - amongst the most comfortable basses I've ever played - and a fabulous core tone (with lots of versatility)

Sold

Bump for a very cleverly and sympathetically aged jazz scratchplate - very high-quality work

Just realised this is still here - bump

I'm pointlessly trying to manufacture a need for this. Among the finest cabs ever built and an absolute bargain IMO (of course).

These are fantastic pres - I actually prefer them to valve pres (though I'm sure others will have a different preference) Seen on stages and in studios all over the world - an industry standard for bass - and the case is a massive bonus!

Massively impressive - extraordinary talent MPU. Wals don't suit me at all - I always sell them on fast - but if they did, I'd have bought this by now

These sound immense and play beautifully. With a bit of care and a modest outlay, this bass could be restored to its original glory

Sorry, should have included this - it's standard depth

PROEL 3u rack case in good used condition. One handle doesn't retract properly (see first image) but a highly protective and solid case. Very few marks to dark grey outer board. Fitted with 8 captive rack bolts. Collection only in East Manchester

No problem! I'll PM

A set of high-quality flats - not sure of brand or gauge but I'd think medium for the latter. Cut for Fender four in line( and came off a Precision). Clean with little apparent use - plenty of life left and decent silks with little fray. £5 shipped in the UK. I'll slip these into an D'Addario pack and Jiffy bag for shipping.

Zoom B3 multi effect unit with box, manual and PSU. In very good, used condition with only very minor scuffs from careful use. Very impressive multiple effects and an excellent DI option. Shipped in UK for £75

Zoom B2 multi effect pedal in very good used condition. Solid and very reliable (housed in a rugged metal case with rubber edging) with surprisingly high-quality effects. B2 only, no power supply but runs on 4AA batteries (Sony alkalines from Poundland work a treat!) £32 shipped in the UK

OLD - Reduced to £30 shipped in the UK (or £28 collected). Montreux white aged '62 Jazz scratchplate - extremely sympathetic relicing. Comes in original packaging with original lightly aged screws. Only ever fitted for a couple of weeks before the J was sold. Currently selling for £47 on Thomann (including shipping).

Limelight medium-relic tort Jazz scratchplate. Perfect (reliced) condition. £21 shipped to UK.

Plastic bass/guitar A frame stand - black plastic - perfect condition and perfectly functional. Comes in velvet(ish) carry pouch. £4.50 shipped in the UK

A set of chrome ashtrays from a Precision - very good used condition but some minor marks. I'm not sure if these are Fender or aftermarket but came on a Fender Japan '62 re-issue body. Shipped in UK for £21

Having owned a few beautiful Celinders, I have no doubt that this will be a world class bass. Christian built (builds?) some of the finest Fender type basses on the planet and his selection of timbers is impeccable. One of my Celinders had the Rio board and the 'ping' in note attack was astounding. I play short-scale almost exclusively now - if I was looking for a 34" scale as a main bass, this '62 would probably be top of my list

As a US Spector player, I can say with some confidence that this is an outrageously good price!
