Well…
Its sat in a case.
the SR5 sees more action than I thought it would.
and I have an absolute belting 4 in my Yamaha bb1500a (which sounds totally different).
After the battle to get it…
im not sure what to do.
Well…inevitably buyers regret has sank in.
If I were wealthier I’d keep this as it’s lovely.
Bought when the vino was flowing…always a key time for bass purchases 🙄
A great example of the 50’s Classic Precision (Now Vintera series).
9lb 7oz.
Includes Gig Bag
Plays superbly - wearing half rounds, but can be restrung with EB rounds if you’d prefer.
Covers are present as is thumb rest.
A previous owner has drilled the bridge cover holes - they’re a little off. I’ve checked with the cover present and they would be invisible if you decided to drill it correctly.
I am happy to do that FOC if you wanted.
Generally Very clean for a 2015 bass. Some minor dinks but nothing shocking at all.
Sounds lovely - quite focussed but still very warm.
Always thought the burst was the quintessential 57 type P.
Anyhow - postage is possible at your risk/cost.
£25 in UK (more insured) but I do have a reputation for over packing gear so it takes 2 hours to get into it.

What a shame.
Clean it, let it live how it is.
cool basses these - a lot seem to be mistreated though, much like the SBV samurai basses of the same era.
weird.
Anyhow - lovely looking thing.
would someone with a buffing wheel be able to help?
Currently in Co.Meath drinking Guinness, and due to the €8 a pint in the hotel…I haven’t got the £77k to buy a bass.
My hangover states that I may have spent that much on the black stuff last night.
