Flex Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 (edited) This bass was traded with/from Ash of this forum back in May 2012, A superb Squier JV series Precision Bass. This is one of the early first issue Squier logo'd basses from 1983, for those in the know these were the basses that raised the standards by which all contemporary Fenders were judged! This bass is in good condition and is all original as far as I know, the only non original parts are the inclusion of an aftermarket thumbrest, cavities have been shielded and a PIO cap. I should also state that someone has at some point fitted chrome covers to the bass. All electrics function perfectly and the pickup sounds just right with a surprising amount of tonal variation. The neck is superb with a sixties style profile and dark rosewood board. Frets are near perfect thanks to the fact it has spent most of its life strung with flats. Action is nice and low, even at all points on the neck. The bass plays really well and has good balance. It weighs just a shade over 8lbs! nice and light Cosmetically there are a few minor blemishes to the finish but nothing nasty. The bass looks fantastic, it has been played and gigged regularly but has been very well looked after. I'm not looking for trades on this one I'm looking for a cash sale only. These are very sought after basses amongst players and have deservedly got the reputation as being the Japanese equivalent of the pre CBS Fender. I'm looking for £650 including delivery, hardcase or softcase is available if shipped.
