SOLD: Fender MIJ Precision Bass 1951RI (rare light blonde model) £620

[davidak]

Another bass from my collection I would like to offer for a sale. If the others would sell, I will keep this one.

It is 1993 made Japan Fender single coil Precision bass, co called 51RI.

This one is very rare model (at least I have never seen similar like this). These basses from early 90' were sold on Japanese market only and there are several differences compared to later models:

- light blonde colour (not "school bus yellow", this one is much more like the originals)
- factory installed Seymour Duncan SCPB-1 pickup
- much bigger string thru body ferrules
- no extra cavity under pickguard - no problem tu use the bass "naked"
- high quality large (Gotoh?) potentiometers (it is not possible to use CTS sized pots on newer models - cavity modification needed)

Bass has a lot of honest players wear, she has been played. See photos in gallery, I tried to make picture of everything but will try to make another upon request. Perfect technical condition, playability. All 51RI line models are discontinued today and prices are increasing a lot these days. This one is great early example. I owned Fender CS 1955 Pbass, sold it and kept this one.

I currently installed original Fender chrome covers to make her complete, see last picture.

Bass is located in Czech Republic and will be shipped for [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]£620 within EU. [/font][/color]

Bump - I have one just like it - words cannot express how well it plays and how great it sounds. Don't hesitate guys, this is the gig not the rehearsal!
