DanEly Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 (edited) Selling my used and much loved American Special Precision. It's a smashing bass, but I've recently got a Tony Franklin P so it's not been getting the love it deserves. It's got a Fender grease bucket tone circuit that sounds pretty nice, a slimmer neck that is really comfortable. I've got it slung with some D'addario Pro steels and also fitted a Hipshot Xtender. It's well used and has a few dinks and a lot of pick evidence. I also still have the original white scratch plate as well! Looking for £450 but I'm open to offers + part ex's for pedals such as DOD Meatbox and synths [url="https://flic.kr/p/oHuyqL"][/url] [url="https://flic.kr/p/oHwpiX"][/url] [url="https://flic.kr/p/oHfEXa"][/url] [url="https://flic.kr/p/oHuz9Q"][/url] [url="https://flic.kr/p/or2CFY"][/url] [url="https://flic.kr/p/oHwoH8"][/url] [url="https://flic.kr/p/oHfEhx"][/url] [url="https://flic.kr/p/oHfE9M"][/url] Added more pictures of fret wear here [url="https://www.flickr.com/photos/danely/sets/72157646019794797/"]https://www.flickr.c...57646019794797/[/url] Edited August 26, 2014 by DanEly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HMX Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 (edited) Lovely bass. What does the Special refer to? Is it a jazz width neck? EDIT: I should read. Slimmer neck sounds good - similar to a jazz? Edited August 14, 2014 by HMX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Check out the website http://www.fender.com/en-GB/series/american-special/american-special-precision-bass-maple-fingerboard-black/ I wouldn't compare the next to a jazz neck, it's slimmer back to front with a P nut. I find this really comfortable! Will get back to all your PMs tonight once I'm home from work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Yes, but hes doing a great impression of the invisible man which is a shame as I am looking for a USA Precision with a maple neck and he lives just up the road...

DanEly Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 (edited) [size=5][b]ALL [/b]pm's replied to.[/size] I do apologise for the lack of responses as I've been working/rehearsing/gigging and doing everything and anything in-between! Regarding the dinks on the bass, they are all within 5mm, there's 3 main offenders: 1. half a inch from the bridge under the A string 2. On the back of the body 2 inches from the contour 3. On the back again, near the small horn showing a bit of wood Just so everyones aware and for my own piece of mind!
