Cato Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Very nice, nice price too. If I'm looking at the right model it looks like they went for £700 in the UK, although it looks like they've now been discontinued. Quote
Flex Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 The Guitar center and Musicians Friend had 200 made for them as a special run by Fender this year, it's the passive version with jazz neck ect, the same as the last run made with a few sent to the UK. Quote
Flex Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Gary, Was a great find.. cant wait to see what turns up next Quote
Flex Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Here's the details.... OVERVIEW We've teamed up with Fender to bring you another great-sounding, unique one-off bass loaded with premium features. The exclusive Deluxe PJ Bass has a Precision Bass body with the neck of a 70s Jazz Bass. It features the appointments you've come to love about most Fender instruments like an alder body, urethane finish, maple fingerboard and a Fender high mass bass bridge. Perhaps the most interesting feature aside from the mash-up of P Bass body and J Bass neck is the combination of Precision and Jazz Bass pickups. With this combo you get the best of both worlds. The growl of the passive J Bass bridge pickup blends perfectly with the passive P Bass split single coil neck pickup with the help of the volume and tone controls. Precision and Jazz hybrid, exclusive.[b]FEATURES [/b][list] [*]Precision Bass body with Maple 70™s Jazz Bass neck [*]Sea Foam Pearl color [*]Alder body with urethane finish [*]Urethane body finish [*]Gloss urethane neck finish [*]Synthetic bone nut [*]Maple fingerboard [*]20 Frets [*]Black block inlays [*]34 Scale [*]Chrome hardware [*]3Ply parchment pickguard [*]Fender high mass bass bridge [*]Standard open gear tuning machines [*]Passive Fender Precision split single-coil w/ passive Jazz Bass pickup in the bridge position [/list] Quote
karlfer Posted December 4, 2015 Author Posted December 4, 2015 (edited) Been gigging mine pretty much every week since March 2014. Spectacularly good bass (there has been quite a few much more expensive ones disposed of since getting mine). Great find Flex. They look even better with a brown tort or mirror plate, imo. There was still one in Richtone (Sheffield) a couple of weeks back, at just over £600. BARGAIN! Edited December 4, 2015 by karlfer Quote
