wesfinn Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 (edited) Hi all. I withdrew this from sale a year ago as I couldn't bare to part with it however I have recently decided that I no longer be concentrating on session work and focusing more on songwriting so this should really go to someone who will use it. I had this made for me by the Fender Custom shop a few years back and it is by far the best Custom Shop bass I have ever seen or played. The bass was made to spec from photographs that I sent and in my opinion it is one of the finest Fender CS relicing jobs you will ever see! As good if not better than any Master built bass. The specs are: 1959 spec alder body finished in olympic white over candy apple red (gold undercoat) Quartersawn maple neck with slab rosewood board, matching olympic white over candy apple red headstock CS 59 pickups Heavy Heavy relic finish 7.25" radius, medium C profile neck The bass the original case and has all of the original case candy,tags etc I'm looking for £2200 ONO Edited February 16, 2012 by wesfinn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wesfinn Posted December 17, 2011 Author Share Posted December 17, 2011 Thankyou. It truly is stunning! More pictures High res pictures available on request from serious enquirers. To order a new bass like this you'd be looking well over £3.5k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
