Hi all.

Up for sale is my Fender Mike Dirnt Precision bass. It's a cracker of a bass, has the original 51 style look, Rosewood board, 55 Contour, Custom 59 pickup (only found on the Dirnt bass), Badass bridge (Fender no longer do this model with the Badass bridge). It's just killer to look at and killer to play. It's had a few dings and chip which have been touched up so they're not as obvious at first glance but you can see these in the photos.

Looking for [s]£400 plus shipping[/s] £375 including mainland UK shipping. May consider trades. Feel free to post a reply or PM with any questions.

Here's the spec from Fender:

Is that a speck of dust near the neck marker on pic 13?

Ha ha, Yeah. I tried to get it as clean as possible but that lens always picks up dust you can't see with your eyes.

Amazing looking bass you got there.

2 questions for you: weight and neck dimensions (I believe the Mike Dirnt has a chunky neck).

GLWTS mate, stunning P-Bass!

I wouldn't say the neck was at all chunky. My Hoppus neck is wider and fatter. I know the spec says thicck but I don't find it that at all. I would say the Dirnt is more a medium C shape. The nut width is 40.4mm. I'll check the weight when I get in but I'm guessing it'll be between 8 & 9lbs.

Just checked the weight on the scales we use for parcels at work. It weighs in at 4.1kg which is approx 9.03lbs. Hope that helps. :)

Awesome bass but not really for me. I'd be willing to take cash with a trade or pay cash with my bass for the right trade. Something Fender, Sadowsky, etc...

Thanks, Anyway. GLWTS.

Totally, but too many basses with a P-bass pickup and need a Jazz sound. So this one gets used the least.
