The GroovyPlucker Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) Up for sale, tentatively, is my Fender Roger Waters Precision Bass, I say that as I might just keep it if no interest. My main concern with it is the neck profile is a bit too thick and chunky for my wee hands. Apart from that it's huge, in all aspects, big, thick body, fat neck, big pickups, big sound, amazing sustain, probably due to the brass nut as well, also looks as cool as f**k. Made in Mexico, but extremely well put together as most signature basses out of Mexico are these days. It's a Fender 50's Precision in all but name, the most sought after, at a price less than a 50's reissue, even though this was meant to be modelled on a 70's Precision I believe. £600 includes U.K. shipping. Not keen on shipping outside the U.K. due to cost and previous bad experience. TRADES CONSIDERED. Squier Matt Freeman + Cash Squier Classic Vibe 60's Bass + Cash Squier Chris Aiken + Cash Fender NATE MENDEL PURE WATERS SOUND AND STYLE The Roger Waters Precision Bass brings you the elemental sound and style of the acclaimed bassist/singer/songwriter, whose elegant grooves are hallmarks of classic Pink Floyd and an acclaimed solo career that continues stronger than ever today.
