Hell's bells, I've been inundated guv Right, all pm's replied thanks. And to[i] that guy [i] , [/i][/i]cash price is £550, which I consider to be decent, especially as they are now in most shops at £911.

At that weight it's going to be Alder I would think.

£600 is trade valuation, £550 cash collected/meet up. These basses are made slightly road worn. Nut width between Jazz and Precision at 40mm. Light at 8lbs. I have the spare neck plate and will include a decent DOUBLE gigbag with the bass. Still looking for Road Worn Jazz or a Flea and I have a few bob to put towards one. Feedback linked at bottom of post Thanks for looking, cheers, Karl.

Thanks chaps. On hold.

PM's replied thanks folks. Thanks to Lozz196 one of these is on it's way. IF I sell/trade, it will be included (but not fitted at this moment). [url="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Electrosocket-Plate-Socket-Assembly-Telecaster-x/dp/B007VE7W5Y"]https://www.amazon.c...x/dp/B007VE7W5Y[/url] Seems Telecasters get this done, A LOT Cheers Lozz, appreciated.

This Sting is in very good condition, especially for 15 years old. Couple of little scrapes, difficult to photo. I have the original 2 barrel bridge (chrome coming off barrels) but this Fender Deluxe string through bridge is a perfect (if pricey) replacement. Comes with decent DOUBLE gigbag. Lightweight Ash body, 8lbs 4ozs. ONE real issue. These "cup" jack sockets are notoriously crap. The jack socket is loose, the "cup" is slightly loose, however, I'm quite happy to gig it like that. I have an upgrade socket on the way, I will forward it to buyer. I'm unusually unsure about moving this on. The sound from this bass is fabulous. Think I will probably give it a week, see what happens. Any trial in Wigan. Thanks for looking, cheers, Karl.

Stunning, I'm in love!

[quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1492411451' post='3279911'] Joking aside I am surprised that this is still here I have played one of these and was most impressed and the price is great too [/quote] Thanks Paul. Traded a few days back ta.

[quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1492366237' post='3279717'] cmon Karl you know basses so don't give us none of that old bollocks about sunburst you know it's illegal lol but joking aside Glwts geezer [/quote] Paul, you are a legendary kind person of this parish. However, I must inform you Sunburst is not illegal. It can't be, I've ended up with 5 of the buggers If this one doesn't go this week, it will be the Sting up next. I'm suffering from Sunburst blindness

[quote name='The GroovyPlucker' timestamp='1492352996' post='3279600'] Thanks Karl, was seriously tempted at the time, just didn't have the reddies, much nicer colour combo as well...... [/quote] Give over man, this is THE classic combo seen on TV's all over the world

[quote name='The GroovyPlucker' timestamp='1492290359' post='3279286'] Did you ever sell the Red one you had, I believe it was the same Bass? [/quote] The Candy Apple Red was the same model, but earlier, from 2011. Went in December. I withdrew it from here, this was my last comment on the closed sale thread; "3 buyers gone awol. 14 basses offered in trade (no RW Jazzes ). 3 cabs offered that I didn't want. Just easier to keep it." Ironically, it went the same night before I could withdraw it from FB

[quote name='rayjames' timestamp='1492206217' post='3278741'] I have one of these - it's a great instrument - very underrated. The neck is very shallow, probably the easiest Precision neck around. And it packs quite a punch in terms of sound. I hope to get the Jazz version at some stage, but only because I'm struggling with a wide fingerboard due to my advanced years ... Good luck [/quote] There's a used American Special Jazz on FEEBay at the moment, £750 BIN. Thanks for all the pm's and offers folks. None of the basses required offered in trade, but 3 lovely "others" offered. And I'm weak, so................ Of course, it is available for sale as well , cheers, Karl.

As Lizzy would say, Still in love with you * * the bass obviously

Did I miss something?

All PM'S and questions have now been replied to. A LOT of trade offers, none of them original spec Fender Road Worn. Mark, way out in front fella, even though it was a curve ball Thanks all.

[quote name='tom1946' timestamp='1492076458' post='3277664'] I wonder if posiflex neck support would work for me.... hmmmm.. might help me back too. [/quote] No comment TomBoy [URL=http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/002_zps4otpx6kt.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1354.photobucket.com/albums/q693/Karl_Altdorfer/002_zps4otpx6kt.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/001_zpspntlcrew.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1354.photobucket.com/albums/q693/Karl_Altdorfer/001_zpspntlcrew.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

Thanks for the bump Mark. All PM's replied, thanks folks. Yes, this model does have the "new slim neck profile", it's actually a little shallower from front to back than the American Standard. It also has the posiflex graphite neck support.

[quote name='Damonjames' timestamp='1491928183' post='3276574'] MB1 I am after a trade for a very specific amp, if I can't advertise it like this I'll have to take it down. I don't want to be bombarded with trade offers of all kinds! Sorry if I sound snotty, I do t mean to be, just don't know how else to do it? [/quote] Don't think Martin meant you Damon. Somebody probably put an offer on the thread, then it was removed before you saw it. You snotty antipodean (sorry mate ).

AMERICAN Special Precision, 2014, now discontinued, as are the Standard. Differences to US STANDARD. Standard pup rather than custom shop. Standard tuners rather than the fancy lightweight ones. Standard bridge rather than high mass through body. No hard case. Light at 8lb 2oz. These have the Greasebucket tone circuit which has made irregular appearances since the late 80's. Very good condition. Comes with tortie plate, plus original white plate, supplied tools plus a DOUBLE gig bag. Any trial in Wigan, feedback linked below. i would prefer trade and a meet up. Many thanks for looking, cheers, Karl.
