Beedster Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 Bought yesterday. 1983 Fender Fullerton '57 reissue. Maple board & 1.75" width at nut. The perfect combination and the best neck I've ever played. Pics to follow Very happy C Quote

[/quote] Check these out dude (pics on phone so crap colours) First up is the refinned '79 maple fretless (courtsey of Martin Simms). Can't even begin to tell you what a great job Martin and his guys did, Looks new, feels old. Perfect, Very jazzy and sexy to play. Second is the '57 reissue. Has a 1.77" nut width and the fastest but fattest fretted neck I've ever played. I'm gonna sell all my other Precisions,. These are all I need Chris [attachment=6780:PIC_0043.jpg] Edited March 23, 2008 by Beedster Quote

Hutton Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 A very nice pair of basses Chris, congratulations! I have a Fullerton 83 standard precision in ivory. It's a really well built bass in superb all-original condition. BTW are you going to be selling your 74 with the rosewood board? Quote

Can't wait to get it up to volume soon Chris Quote
barks Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 Nice '57 Chris. BTW, if you're having a clearout I'd perhaps be interested in the fretless with the J pickup! Neil. Quote
