jay-syncro Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 I'm reluctantly selling my old Precision as the funds are needed elsewhere. This bass used to belong to WoT of this parish, details of which can be found here http://basschat.co.uk/topic/231110-nbd-1971-precision/ The bass is very light (around 8lbs), very resonant and well balanced. Since WoT's ownership it has been refinished very nicely in the original Candy Apple Red with a thin nitro topcoat, had the Bart replaced with a vintage spec Lollar pickup, and now lives in a Fender vintage reissue hard case. The nut was also replaced with a custom made (by Andy Crockett) bone item, as the original plastic one had become worn. It is wearing a set of TI flats, and sounds wonderful. The only downside to this bass is that it has a couple of high frets around the 15th/16th fret, but as I never venture up there, it hasn't been a problem. Due to the mods that have been made, I'm asking for a respectable £1200.

dannybuoy Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 Nate Mendel from the Foo Fighters would probably have this off you, it's exactly the same as his favourite bass that he based his signature model off of!
