My latest acquisition; a Fender Japan PB70. I've had this for about 3 weeks now, bought from @lapolpora from the Marketplace. The colour caused much discussion in the sale thread, and I can confirm that it looks absolutely nothing like the pictures below 😄 It's probably Sonic Blue but does look Daphne Blue at times. I stuck on a set of Gotoh lollipop tuners I had spare and some Dunlop flats and it plays and sounds fantastic. I really need to get the Patio Magic out.

These are lovely basses. I got the orange one that was doing the rounds recently; love the neck on it, weight is just right, balanced perfectly. Please excuse the kids toys and general chaos! :)D03083D4-4BC4-4F31-B511-CF14930F0F0F.thumb.jpeg.96718b6bc1f4025dca10ac0071ea0d75.jpeg

Lovely bass mate, but do you really need a tape measure of that length in the bathroom?! 😮

Look, the email made specific promises on the lengthening effect and the man’s gotta check he’s getting his moneys worth

And a damn fine bass it is too! I absolutely loved it and wish I’d had a project and band for it. Remember, first dibs…

Oooh, that ‘79!  My favorite colour combo and YOB.

 

I think I remember reading somewhere that @Lozz196 doesn't mind a black/black/maple Precision. 😉

Think you will find that Lozz finds maple rather last year😂 Who would have thought it.

Yup, whilst I’ll never get rid of my US 2015 black/black/maple Precision I’ve gone back to my rosewood roots. Still think the b/b/m is the coolest looking tho.

Very nice, I struggle with 4 knobs on my jazz elite 😁, I’d never work all those out
