Sold - Fender Precision 70's RI - MIJ 2011, OW/Maple/Blocks - £600 £650

£650

New Price £600 - Topic Edited Please Read 

After recently purchasing more than my fair share of lovely P's with rosewood boards, it's time to let some of my other basses go.

This is a beautiful Made In Japan 70's Reissue from I believe 2011.

• Olympic White
• Black/White/Black plate
• Maple board with black block inlays
• Fitted with Fender Custom Shop '62 pickup (original pickup also supplied)  

EDIT 18/06/18

• Now fitted with the original pickup and a Kiogon solderless loom (CTS pots, Switchcraft jack socket)
• Original loom also included in the sale
• Please note that the top few photos show the CS pickup fitted.  The original pickup covers now fitted are a matt finish but in equally good condition (shown in the bottom photographs)

EDIT 24/06/18

• I was asked to show the neck joint/socket. No issues or cracking here, it’s just that I was asked so here it is
• Also added a pic of the original pots/loom that is included.

The bass looks stunning, plays beautifully and is in pretty much mint condition.  There are some very light indentations around the bridge where a Babicz bridge had been fitted previously, but only noticeable if you squint, stand on one leg and hold the bass at a particular angle to the sun!

Currently strung with Fender 7250L string’s but I do have a set of Fender flats I can put on if you prefer (mediums I believe).

There is no case with this bass.

Would prefer collection or meet up (I'm in South Yorkshire) but would be willing to ship UK only at buyers expense.  I have a strong guitar box and it would be properly wrapped.

I really didn`t expect to see this one up. Great basses, and will have been made even better by the 62 pickup imo.

Any idea of weight and what's the nut width at the neck?

The nut itself is approx. 39mm but there is binding either side which takes the actual width of the neck to approx. 42mm.

Weight wise I don’t really have the means to give an exact weight I’m afraid.  Suffice to say that it’s not lightweight but nor is it a back breaker.  It’s lighter than my Sandberg but about the same as my Squier Classic Vibe (if that’s any use whatsoever) 😁

[ricksterphil]

Thanks, that gives me an idea as I had a Sandberg myself which wasn't at all heavy. Does it neck dive at all? I tried a Jap precision once which had an alarming propensity for the headstock to dive towards the floor at any opportunity.

Where abouts in South Yorkshire? I live in Nottingham, but work in Hucknall so would be keen to pop round for a try-out one evening if that would be ok?

[Deedee]

Sorry for the delay.

No neck dive on this one, balances really well.

I’m a frequent visitor to Nottingham (my home town).  I’ll pm you.

I had one of these and they're gorgeous

Quality through and through
