2x18 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) My lovely Sunburst Fender Made in Japan Precision Bass ( E. serial no. made between 1984 -87 ) is up for sale. It has a Maple fretboard and has a recent set of the excellent Webstring Detroit Flats fitted. Weight is a comfortable 4.2 kg. ( 9.2 lbs ) and it comes with a decent Hard case. Its in very good condition for its age with negligable fret wear. Plays and sounds great with a easy low to medium action. Would prefer buyer to collect ( Leeds very close to Junct. 46 of M1 ) owing to recent bad experiences with postal services, but could meet up if not too far away. Any trial welcome - Not looking for any trades. -[attachment=72352:IMG_0288.JPG][attachment=72353:IMG_0289.JPG][attachment=72354:IMG_0290.JPG][attach ment=72355:IMG_0291.JPG][attachment=72356:IMG_0292.JPG][attachment=72357:IMG_0293.JPG][attachment=72 3 58:IMG_0294.JPG][attachment=72359:IMG_0296.JPG][attachment=72360:IMG_0297.JPG] Edited February 23, 2011 by 2x18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary mac Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 If this is as good as my Jap bitsa that I recently put together, then someone should get themselves a very nice bass. Good luck with the sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartyBRebelMC Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Not that this detracts in anyway from this bass at all but I don't think it's a '57 reissue. I thought '57's were 2 tone sunburst, spaghetti logo and gold anodised pick-guard, this looks more like a very nice 60's reissue. Lovely bass and good luck with the sale, I only mention the 57 thing 'cause i have a real hankering for one if i get back into playing 4 strings again.

There have been a few mentions of these on Talkbass Will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
