Marc S Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) Price £710 - no trades please... For sale is this beautiful, near mint condition Oly white US Fretless Precision It's honestly in stunning condition, there's hardly a mark on it, apart from some minute blemishes which are hardly noticeable and some "blooming" on the tort pickguard. The Oly White colour of the body is nicely yellowing and the varnish on the neck is a nice ageing honey colour. It plays beautifully and the finish on the neck is lovely and smooth. There is no wear on the fingerboard, just some barely noticeable play marks. You could almost hang this up in a shop as new! It's currently strung with Thomastik Infeld Flats. These were on another bass before this, and I swapped them onto this lovely bass, so the silks are a little worn, but the strings are hardly used. Originally, this bass had a fretted neck on it. I bought the bass from Old Horse Murphy some time back, and decided to try my hand at fretless. A US factory lined fretless neck also came up for sale on here and I decided to swap the necks. The body dates from early 2000's (2007 I think) and the neck dates from the 90's. It was exactly the same feel and dimensions as the original neck, and it was a simple swap, with a nice tight fit into the pocket, with no play whatsoever.... All other parts; bridge electrics, pickups, pots etc are original to the bass.... The neck is not chunky - it's a modern "C" shape / profile type. Nut width is 41.5mm. And the neck is not too deep - it feels more like a Jazz neck profile to me, but perhaps a tad wider I don't have the original neck. I never anticipated selling this bass, as it's so lovely. However, I took a fretless Jazz in trade, and I'm liking that a lot. I only need one fretless, so this one is up for sale. I'd prefer collection from North Cardiff - or I can meet somewhere convenient. No case included, though I could let you take it away in a gigbag if you don't have a case... I'm not looking for trades, as I've got too much gear already! I don't have a weight for it, as my bathroom scales aren't great - but it's very lightweight for a P bass Edited May 22, 2017 by Marc S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
