*SOLD* Relic 70s PJ Fender Copy £250 (not £350) £350 Eastbourne

[DoubleOhStephan]

Up for sale is my 70s PJ Fender copy, in very relic'd condition. 

Edit... The asking price is £250, not £350! Fat thumbs + small keys = dumbass mistake 😬

I've owned this one since 2015, but as I don't really get on with P width necks, it spends its life sat on the stand looking super cool, but is unplayed and gathering dust. Tbh, it's way too good a bass for that! 

The Precision pickup's a genuine Seymour Duncan Bassline with the cover swopped for an authentic look. The jazz pickup is an original 1970s Dimarzio Humbucker, one of the first made for sale. 

The previous owner installed a discrete 3 way toggle (neck/both/bridge) to maintain the classic P look. I've just had it in to the tech for a going over and all dry solder joints redone, so is ready to gig without fear of any problems. 

I've swopped the scratchplate for a brand new Northwest Guitars tortoiseshell Pickguard, which still has the plastic cover on. Tbh, I was going to relic it to match the bass, but my last relicing effort was a disaster, so I'll leave that the new owner to sort out... 

It has vintage tint neck, rosewood board, truss adjustment at the body end and 70s Fender Precision logo. Truss works fine, the action is nice and low. 

The machine heads are genuinely aged & pitted early Japanese, they hold tune well and have no play at all. 

The bass is weighing in at just under 4kgs, so not too bad for an old Precision. 

Please contact me to discuss shipping, although collection in person from Eastbourne is much preferred. 

Cheers Steve

Hi, 

D'you know where the original body & neck were sourced from?

Is this 70's look or 70's parts?

I don't I'm afraid, it was sold as seen without any real history.

I'd have to say 70s look, I don't have any info on the history of the bass I'm afraid
