lcu1988 Posted May 30, 2012 Posted May 30, 2012 (edited) I have a rather unusual but fun little bass for sale. It is a 1967 Fender Mustang Bass (confirmed by stamp on neck, and the number on the neck plate thing). It has been routed and fitted with a precision bass pick up, apparently its a fender and was done sometime in the seventies, but don't know how to confirm this. It is a pleasure to play, and has a really beefy old school sound, currently strung with very heavy flat wounds. Great for the seventies Average White Band sound, motown thud and is surprisingly versatile. Only reason for selling is that some bastard nicked my amp over the weekend. Only trades I would consider are for a LM3 or mark bass cabs + or - cash either way. Am based in South London, but travel a lot with gigs so might be able to meet in a place more convenient. Not sure how to value this but say £850 ono.... Edited April 20, 2013 by lcu1988

lcu1988 Posted May 30, 2012 Author Posted May 30, 2012 Having just bough an early 19th century English double bass, funds aren't exactly plentiful at the moment....
ash Posted May 30, 2012 Posted May 30, 2012 Nice bass, I love old Mustangs, I still have a rather knackered old Mustang neck knocking about, shame about the pickup mod. I take it the finish is original?
lcu1988 Posted May 30, 2012 Author Posted May 30, 2012 As far as I know, few dings around the usual places but otherwise very clean... Currently away working but when home can post a few close up shots!
lcu1988 Posted June 3, 2012 Author Posted June 3, 2012 (edited) bump, and say £800? Edited June 3, 2012 by lcu1988
lcu1988 Posted June 14, 2012 Author Posted June 14, 2012 £750? Im not entirely sure how to price this, because of the pickup mod, but it is still a mid sixties fender with tons of vibe... will try and put up a couple sound clips!
jwlkr Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 agh i wish this had the original pick up. i love this so much!!
lpdeluxe72 Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 Is this one still for sale?And does it come in a case?
