Mike Posted January 8, 2008 Posted January 8, 2008 This is a 1999 Fender Precision Special Bass which was a limited edition of basses that Fender USA made. They featured a Precision bodied bass but with the thinner jazz neck and the P/J pick-up configuration. Just the body from this 1999 USA Precision Special has been used with the addition of the following major improvements: [b] - Allparts USA Jazz Bass Neck with black block inlays. - Hipshot tuners. - Hipshot "D" Tuner. - EMG P/J Active pick-ups. - Aguilar OBP-2 band E.Q. fitted in control cavity, controls are now vol, vol and stack-knob treble/bass. - Leo Quan Badass II Chrome Bridge. - Fender USA replacement "Black Pearloid" pickguard.[/b] As you may or may not have noticed I am trying to to slim down my bass collection. I need shot a few of my basses, keeping only what I truly need to gig and learn with. I don't want to make profit on this - selling for the price I bought at: [size=7][b]£395[/b] [/size] Shipping will include a HARD PRECISION case, and be £20 - or picked up with no cost, of course! Any questions - PM me! Regards Mike
Kev Posted January 8, 2008 Posted January 8, 2008 (edited) another gorgeous bass typical the one i get to first is out of my price range ay? unless you were interested in the musicman SUB bass im selling plus cash? Edited January 8, 2008 by BassManKev
Mike Posted January 8, 2008 Author Posted January 8, 2008 I could do with slimming in all sorts of ways, Kev! I'm afraid I'm not after a Sub - cheers though. This is a pretty decent price (to say the least, in my opinion!).
Kev Posted January 8, 2008 Posted January 8, 2008 (edited) its a great price indeed, just more thank my bank balance at the moment Edited January 8, 2008 by BassManKev
Mike Posted January 8, 2008 Author Posted January 8, 2008 (edited) A possible offer - but technically still available. I should find out tonight if the buyer is interested. Edited January 8, 2008 by Mike
lukeward2004 Posted January 8, 2008 Posted January 8, 2008 Bloody hell - what a stunner! that aguilar preamp is awesome, I have one in my warwick streamer stage one with EMG pickups and it is a powerful and versatile pre. That neck is superb!
Bassassin Posted January 8, 2008 Posted January 8, 2008 That is absolutely stunning - should be in Bass Porn, never mind here. I've had an idea for a project like that on the back burner for years - about the only difference would be a natural body, but the red's just gorgeous. Is that a metallic finish? Anyway, typically I can't afford it - but in the desperately unlikely event you've still got it in a couple of weeks - expect an offer! Jon.

Mike Posted January 8, 2008 Author Posted January 8, 2008 Looks like the bass has been sold. Payment pending! Thanks for all the interest. Does anyone else get the guilt at telling people it's probably been sold? I feel awful about it. Wish I had one for everyone!
