cd_david Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 It took me over 20 years to find a Precision that sounded good, then I found a few more [URL=http://s519.photobucket.com/user/cd_david/media/Basses%20To%20View/CA947CDA-CBB3-44AA-8EEA-4D98FA3E604C_zpsnwgkvvsf.jpg.html][IMG]http://i519.photobucket.com/albums/u359/cd_david/Basses%20To%20View/CA947CDA-CBB3-44AA-8EEA-4D98FA3E604C_zpsnwgkvvsf.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Above as they stood, below is the refinement of a 30 year search [URL=http://s519.photobucket.com/user/cd_david/media/Basses%20To%20View/59BE6F2F-52FF-4ACA-9CD3-B0A18B77A7C0_zpsz0nr104c.jpg.html][IMG]http://i519.photobucket.com/albums/u359/cd_david/Basses%20To%20View/59BE6F2F-52FF-4ACA-9CD3-B0A18B77A7C0_zpsz0nr104c.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottBass86 Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 (edited) Here is my new build, all done except for a missing scratch plate screw and strap pins! Should there be a pickup cover too?

Subbeh Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Had this since Christmas but wasn't sold on the white guard that came with it. Got this tort one on ebay for little over a tenner and it finally looks like I wanted it to . Fresh set of strings and a setup and together with the new pickguard it's like having a new bass again!

Painy Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) Well this is my own very humble offering. Squier Vintage Modified Precision V in my favorite sunburst/tort/maple and now sporting a new F decal on the headstock for no reason other than I just love the look of the bendy 70s precision logo. This would be the second cheapest bass I have ever bought new but it's also my all time favorite. It may not have the pedigree of some of the amazing precisions posted in here but instruments are very personal and for me personally this one is perfect!

[/quote] Cheers Dan, I knew that it wouldn't be easy to find one, it took some time, perseverance and then a big chunk of right place, right time Mrs Mac is already a little concerned that I'm losing the plot, spending "all that money on an old bit of plastic" So the restoration is on hold for a while.

Sibob Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Looks awesome Gary, glad to see you've decided to keep it for a bit! I actually didn't play this on purpose at the herts bash, not only would my '71 get jealous, but I was worried I'd be thinking about trying to buy it if I liked it haha. Out of interest, what colour/finish would you go for if/when you 'restore' it? I've seen some excellent work from Joseph Kaye in London, he refinished my friends '57 Strat, period correct paint and nitro (shipped by boat from america), and the relic job is top top draw.
