Due to incoming , I am reluctantly parting with this International Series 1993-4 'Maui Blue' Precision Bass from Japan. 

It is stock apart from a rather nice Badass II. 

Dating from 1993 and having  being played, it has a few dints and  chips as photographed, with the worst being underneath at the rear. The 'Ripcurl sticker' on the back seems to have protected against buckle rash and does not conceal anything untoward- as far as I can see!

Has a lovely tone, low action  weighs 8.9lbs and is the rare Maui Blue as photographed. I'll  put it in a decent but not OEM hard case for transit too for the full price of £350 . Now with added at the bottom mockup photo of  the bass  with a pearloid scratchplate although it was for a Buttercream P Bass so has a slightly yellow tinge rather than flat white!

I'll be sad to see this go but needs must!P1040952.thumb.JPG.25e92d69c0f0cb2982a6a4f702c6a110.JPG

Fabulous colour - I'm a massive fan of the International series.  Looks like a really good buy to me - I'm a fan of Badass bridges too

Just to say, I was the owner previous to Mr Yorks5stringer (who is a gentleman, btw), and I had it from my uncle (original purchaser) in around 95/96 when he emigrated to the US.

Lovely bass, I just get on with wider necks better. Missing that colour though!!!

Err, what about 'officer' as well as 'gentleman'?

Surprised this is still here at that price. Would look super cool wearing a gold anodised pickguard. 🤠

I was thinking it would look fab with a pearloid scratchplate :)

It had a grey pearloid on it when I got it and I changed it back to the OEM one which is as photographed. I looked into an adonised gold one: £60 from Fender....! Have now just done a quick overlay with a yellowy pearloid, so you can see the effect!

Nice trousers dude...!

 

Yes, tried to match them to the decal. Actually, I've just joined a Bay City Rollers Tribute Band called 'Summerlove Sensation'.....
