Guest MoJo Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 (edited) https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/squier-precision-bass-made-in-japan-in-1987./1275644985 Does this look like an MIJ Squier to you? Machine heads look wrong to me, but I'm no expert. Looks like an MIK to me £100 if you take it today Edited November 16, 2017 by MoJo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donnyboy Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 (edited) I'm no expert but it looks manky... maybe need a clean up and a new set of strings How long has it been in the shed, I wonder? I can't really see the machine heads or logo on the headstock from the grainy pics. Edited November 16, 2017 by Donnyboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGreek Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 So who keeps a (legit) Bass in their shed?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geek99 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I quite fancy that as a project but he is nowhere near me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabba_the_gut Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 This is pretty close to me but I know nothing much about Squiers! Ive looked at a few pictures on the web - is the truss rod adjustment on the heel on Japanese Squiers? Is this bass worth a punt?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 White and maple, mmm... I'd like to rescue this, but it's just too much of a hike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Still there? Amazing if so. If this turns out to be an E or A serial (IMO looks like it could be either) then it'll be an awesome bass for £100. Or if you're an unprincipled gyppo, a potential £250-ish profit.
