Stub Mandrel Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 A few days ago I found a print shop in Nottingham that also sells little replicas of famous guitars. They are nearly all six-strings, but the basses include a Stuart Sutcliffe EB1 which is pretty esoteric. Looking for something for myself I eventually spotted a Phil Lynott precision. The guy fetched it out but noticed the scratchplate had buckled and the laquer was peeling off it, so he let me have it for £5 instead of £15. I'm going to see if I can get it off and replace it with a mirror finish one! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like, WHY would ANYONE pay $12,500 for a precision? https://www.notreble.com/buzz/2019/07/27/fender-custom-shop-unveils-limited-edition-phil-lynott-precision-bass/ Oh, I see " Fender includes a custom Anvil case, leather strap, and studded wristband, a pair of mirrored aviator sunglasses " Fair enough. I was going to ask the neck profile, fingerboard radius and string spacing .. but Skankdelvar got in with that joke first!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
