Sold Pending.......Fender USA Precision Bass 2001 S/Burst Fender Case - Poss Warwick Trade?
£599


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Boring back story: - Possible job loss looming so need to rationalise the toys. This being a USA Fender is hopefully the most saleable bass I've got.

Good Points: - It's a Fender Precision 2001 Sunburst with Fender Moulded Case.
Great playing and sounding bass, nice stripe on the freboard.
Some of the best Fender basses date from around this time.
Overall in very good condition.

Bad Points: - A couple of dings, both pictured, one on the top side of the bass where your forearm would rest, another inside the inner top horn. There are a couple of hairline lacquer cracks in the back of the neck, I've tried to photograph these as best as I can but they are very difficult to photograph. Also a couple of minor marks on the top of the fretboard which again are very difficult to photograph.

£599 for a cash sale - [i]may[/i] trade (trade valuation would be increased) for something (Warwick / Fender Jazz?) that would mean I would then put one of my other Warwick's up for sale.
By all means let me know what you've got, the worst I can do is politely decline.

Selling for cash preferred due to current circumstances.
I'm in Chorley, Lancs - any inspection more than welcome.

Those late 90's early 2000's basses were great. I had one that looked exactly like this and sold it many moons ago. Good luck with the sale!

Top bloke.
Top bass.
Just buy it, especially at this price peeps. Absolute classic, don't make Martyn have to get rid of any of his Wick's.
Good luck fella bump.

I've done some short video clips of the bass that I can email to anyone who wants to see them - just PM me.
In these I've been able to show the dinks and marks better than I could capture with the camera.

Also, better picture of the dink inside the horn here:

The video's are of the condition of the bass.
No playing video sorry but I'm sure you all know what a USA Fender P sounds like.

A USA Precision for £600, about the same price as many second hand Japanese Precisions/Jazzes (MOST of which have poorer p'ups, imo). As most of us know most of these fellas only get better with age.
For goodness sake somebody treat themselves to a possible lifelong workhorse and friend.

Plus the late nineties/early noughties series are incredibly good, due to a take-over Fender had back then, so the quality and workmanship was really upped at around this time. This bass is a bargain, that I sadly can`t manage, sigh...............

Thanks for the comments Guys - IMHO its a good bass at a good price.
Surprised it hasn't gone yet but the market seems very flat everywhere at the moment - tricky times....

Yep - just ordered one otherwise I'd be all over it.
You could hide the cosmetic issues with a dab of black paint - wouldnt bother me

How about a non-Warwick trade for [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/192805-for-sale-fender-jaguar-in-hot-rod-red-l480/#entry1879127"]this[/url]? Sorry, I'm hanging on to my Corvettes!

Possible job loss and you are based in Chorley - you dont perchance work for a large infrastructure firm that has recently been purchased have you...?
