TimAl Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 (edited) Hello there all, I'm selling my 2004-05 MIA Fender Precision Bass - to be fair she's way above my league & I really should thin the herd a bit so I'm letting her go. She plays FANTASTICALLY well with the perfect neck for me & a low action, plus sounds exactly as she should. Totally original & at first glance she's mint - but looking closely there are a couple of marks which are hugely exaggerated in these pictures - but I've photographed her with studio lights as they're very unforgiving so you can see her at her 'worst' here - she genuinely looks much better in the flesh. Only point to note is that there is some lacquer crazing on the back of the neck - mainly around the 12th fret which you can see in the attached pic - which is somewhat bizarre as the rest of her is in excellent condition - but is totally unnoticeable when playing. Fitted with the S1 switch & complete with OHSC & case candy as pictured. £650 firm please, with payment via cash, bank transfer or PayPal but you cover the fees, & I'm afraid I'm out of the market for trades at the moment. I'm more than happy to box up securely & courier to you for an additional £30 (UK mainland) but would ideally prefer you to come & have a noodle to make sure she's as good as I think she is before parting with any lolly. I'm just outside Kimbolton in Cambridgeshire & work from home, so am pretty flexible on timings, plus the kettle's always on . . . Many thanks Tim Edited November 12, 2015 by TimAl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc S Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Hi Tim, That looks lovely. I've got inexplicable GAS for a black P, with maple neck atm Probably brought on by the Squier CV 70's P I think I know the answer to this already, but I'm assuming it's a modern "C" shaped / profile neck? Oh GAS, cruel GAS GLWTS - someone please buy this quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] LOL - I'd wager not in as much trouble as I'm in with Mrs Tim, hence the sale I've realised I've forgotten to add the weight - I've just ordered some decent scales so will edit the post once they arrive with the exact weight, but I must say it's seriously light compared to other P's I've had the pleasure of. Cheers all, Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
