Clarky Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 This looks like it got in an accident with a belt sander and a bucket of engine grease http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Fender-Precison-51-bass-roadworn-vintage-50s-jazz-bass-customshop-relic/271693189151?_trksid=p2045573.c100034.m2102&_trkparms=aid%3D555012%26algo%3DPW.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140107092241%26meid%3D10af1bd8b4b14292ab30d58dbef720a7%26pid%3D100034%26prg%3D20140107092241%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D201235601875 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiliwailer Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Clarky, have you checked out the CS 1955 Relic in Bassgear? I have one and can't ever imagine parting with it. It's a very special bass, still blows be away each time I pick it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 Hey matey I have done but I am just not a fan of black basses, superficial though that sounds. If they could re-spray it blonde I would be in like Flynn!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I hear you, I'm half way through selling an absolutely gorgeous CS 64 P Bass, one of the best I've played and just because it's white, a colour I can't get on with. I like black basses but I'm not too keen on the sunburst patch on my relic, such a good bass though that I'll overlook that! Good luck on your search pal.

Dazed Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I really like the industrial accident look but Christ that hit over £500 and didn't touch the reserve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
