This is a complete one off that I've just had authenticated by Fender. In Fender's own words: "There’s no order number in the[/font][/color][color=#333333][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]re so this was probably made for the artist and not run through the system in the normal way. Because it’s pretty much a one off I don’t have any specs I can give you, but we would say it’s a genuine 1994 Custom Shop “Custom Precision Bass”. [/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I bought this about 10 or so years ago from Gary Day who was, until recently, Morrisey's bass player. He had bought it from a shop in LA whilst touring, gigged with it and bought it back to the UK. it's a beauty with P & J pick-ups and I've fitted a BadAss 3 bridge to it - but I still have the original vintage style bridge and cover. There's a few marks on the back of the neck but it plays beautifully. It comes with a hard case. I can send more pics to those interested.[/font][/color] [font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#333333]I'm looking for £1695 ono[/color][/font]
RobTheBass Posted January 26, 2013 Author Posted January 26, 2013 Will consider a part-exchange on this bass - anyone want to trade?

RobTheBass Posted January 26, 2013 Author Posted January 26, 2013 I appreciate it's quite an expensive bass for anyone to purchase but I need to free up some cash so if it helps I'd take cash plus something else. I'm not really looking for anything specific, just something that may interest me - I could do with a compact cab to handle a 4-8ohm 300w head - something light and portable...or a decent standard P bass - preferably american but would consider something else.

wateroftyne Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 I'm confused. This is advertised twice, by two slightly different usernames...?

Lozz196 Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 That is a lovely bass. Just out of interest, as not looking to buy, are both pickups on all the time, or are the two controls volume/volume?

sirmuppet Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Hi. Does it come with anything like a COA? Thanks.
RobTheBass Posted February 16, 2013 Author Posted February 16, 2013 Re: Authentication: I can send copies of all e-mails with Fender that confirm the bass's originality. I can also get authentication from Gary Day if required.
