Bought a beautiful Fender P from Mike (pestie) today. Bass was exactly as described (in fact, even better than described). Mike couldn't have been more honest or helpful. Lovely fella, great transaction, deal with complete confidence. Many thanks again 😊

Mystery solved then! I do love this forum 😄 Many thanks everyone

Many thanks guys, that's just what I was after. The 'series' that I mentioned was prompted by one that's on fleabay at the moment (£600 in Notts). The tag on it says 'American series'. It has S1 switching. I wasn't sure if this is actually a different range or not.

Hi all Given my complete lack of knowledge of Fender's range now, could any of you guys advise me on the differences between the following: USA standard P USA series P USA Special P I apologise for my ignorance in advance! 😔 Cheers

[quote name='jassbass' timestamp='1408880424' post='2534253'] How about postage? Im in sunderland tyne and wear. Think someone is buying my gk 1001rb combo next week so i'll have funds Thanx [/quote] I'd prefer collection but postage is an option, although I've no idea on cost (it is a little weighty). Alternatively, we could sort out a meet up half way? Cheers

[quote name='skej21' timestamp='1408566358' post='2531470'] I feel the same. The ones I've played all felt very cheap and always disappointed, weight wise, tonally and aestheically. I've played sub £300 Epiphone basses that are built to a higher standard and have a better tone and that's saying something. They are a big company so will always have the fanboys who love them but I just don't get it. Saying all that, I like Fender. I imagine the guys who love Stingrays etc will think I'm a mug for liking Fender. Different strokes and all that jazz :-) [/quote] 😳 Epiphones better build quality than a Stingray???? You must have tried some real dog 'rays. As a rule (and certainly in my experience) their build quality is far more consistent than a great number of manufacturers including Fendar and certainly Epiphone. As you say, some basses 'fit' players and others don't. That's ultimately what it comes down to. -

[quote name='ash' timestamp='1408529752' post='2531016'] The inevitable 'what's the weight' question [/quote] Not entirely sure on the weight. It's an ash body and certainly weighs far more than a new US std Precision I tried in a shop the other day. To be fair I do prefer a bass with a bit of weight to it 😉 -

[quote name='Salotti' timestamp='1408527683' post='2530988'] Hi mate, are you interested in a Fender Precision Special FSR Deluxe? Is the active version. Let me know Cheers [/quote] Hi Afraid not, I'm looking for a bog standard American plug and play and it must have a Precision neck, not a jazz. Cheers -
