squire Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Lovely bass. Can't afford it though. I only have a jazz bass(*) to trade and I'm based in Holland, so that wouldn't trade very easily. Good luck with the sale! * [url="http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/1199/dscn1689ug5.jpg"]http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/1199/dscn1689ug5.jpg[/url] [url="http://img72.imageshack.us/img72/797/dscn1666cb0.jpg"]http://img72.imageshack.us/img72/797/dscn1666cb0.jpg[/url] [url="http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/3179/dscn1673st9.jpg"]http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/3179/dscn1673st9.jpg[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loweringthetone Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 [quote name='eneade' post='1055520' date='Dec 11 2010, 11:12 PM']I guess you are wrong about the date of the pots : [url="http://home.provide.net/~cfh/pots.html"]http://home.provide.net/~cfh/pots.html[/url] CTS pots dates are 137 + two digits for year + two digits for week. Sorry but it seems that your pots are from 1980.[/quote] It's because S9*** serials are not exact, and overlap into 1980. However, this is really of no consequence . The bass is clearly late 70s build through and through and to be honest it looks a real find. You just dont get them in this condition at this price. If you can take that bit of extra weight, this looks to be a humdinger of a vintage P. Good luck with the sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was tempted to say "In a house and Yes!" but that would be silly. Sorry! I reside in the Loughborough/Leicester area, would be a better way to put it. Don't fancy it over the next few days but later on, if you fancy 'avin a butchers, I could arrange a meet up. Where are you?? - try not to say "sitting in front of my PC, reading this" - that would make you as silly as me! Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the best H. Fancy a swap for a rare les paul bass? This is a very clean late 70's Precision, which according to the guy I bought it off, privately, only had one owner before him, making me only the third owner. I went through a big Precision and Jazz phase, a few years back and after I managed to get my dream Jazz, this was next on the list. I have rehearsed with it and gigged with it but only at some of the nicer venues, if you get what I mean. Didn't fancy it getting damaged! Took me AGES to find one in such good condition. These pics were taken last summer but it hasn't changed since then. I will be taking more shots and give a full description The last time it made a public outing, would be about 8 months ago and since then I have rehearsed with it a couple of times, wiped it down and put it back in the case. I have several other "P"'s and none of those have been out for a while, as I am working my way through Ibanez, Aria and Peavey T-40 etc. So, I think it is time to let it go. I am looking for £1200 for this, which comes with a std case. For another £50, it will come with one of those fancy Fender moulded cases, which is what I have carried it around in - top protection. I also have a period Fender case, which I bought to go with it and having paid for it (ouch) dare not take it out. Someone [i]may[/i] be interested in that. As I said, more pics and description to follow. Any PM's answered before 8.30, lunch and evenings. Cheers.

Anyone fancy this old fella? £1185.00 with one of those bullet-proof moulded fender cases. Played it last around 8 weeks ago - plugged it in, gave it 30 mins of exercise, wiped it down and put it away again. Ready to go. This year I have been slightly reducing my mahooosive excess in basses - had a lot of fun over the years but can't get round them all now. I have 3 Japanese Precisions, which get an outing now and again but even they have to take their turn. So, any takers? Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
