Aero71 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Beautiful bass! You should mention in the title about this being the blue flower model. I've got the pink paisley. Awesome basses! GLWTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azumi Posted February 20, 2016 Author Share Posted February 20, 2016 @Aero71 - Thanks for the advice - title is now "Fender 54 Precision Reissue Blue Paisley". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutton Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 What aero71 said was that your bass is the blue flower model. It is not a Paisley pattern model. Therefore paisley shouldn't be in the title. It should say blue flower and not blue Paisley. I hope this helps. Good luck with the sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beedster Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Surely this is a RI of the late '60s Telecaster Bass and not a 54? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azumi Posted February 27, 2016 Author Share Posted February 27, 2016 @Beedster - what I know is that it is a 54 Reissue - I'm not sure about it being a '60s Telecaster Bass. Anybody an expert on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walplayer Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 (edited) [quote name='azumi' timestamp='1456590368' post='2990582'] @Beedster - what I know is that it is a 54 Reissue - I'm not sure about it being a '60s Telecaster Bass. Anybody an expert on this? [/quote] Im no expert but i think all the Tele basses were slab bodies and the 54/55 were contoured. If its contoured it would probably be the japanese "version" of a 54 (OPB-54) the body contours and neck profile are different to original 54/55 and custom shop reissues as i believe are the pick-up size/shape (but others may know different?) dont think they had flowered 50s basses though so maybe its a bit of both eras . Looks in great condition glwts Edited February 27, 2016 by walplayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobVbass Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Its the 54 body but a CIJ tribute to the 60s Paisley Telebass - I've the pink paisley version of this - great bass and surprising variation in sound - Also a sod to set up due to the heel end truss adjustment and the small size fret wire but once done an utter joy to play, really great necks.
