Squier Classic Vibe 60s Precision - Fiesta Red - 2010 - *SOLD* £430 Orpington BR6

[Happypants]

Squier Classic Vibe 60s Precision - Fiesta Red - 2010

 

Fantastic condition. Lovely dark rosewood board. I'm being critical: there's one tiny, tiny compression mark in lacquer to back body near the strap button. Two indentations on back which haven't broken paint which look to me like finish flaws rather than dings. Very minor scrape to headstock. Should all be shown in photos.

 

Pots were a little scratchy but I've sprayed with contact cleaner and are now fine.

 

I'm replacing with ... the same, but in Olympic white.

 

Currently strung with relatively new Thomastik-Infield Jazz flats JF344. 

 

Currently has Dunlop strap locks but originals included.

 

Ideally looking for collection from Orpington BR6 or meet up within reasonable distance. Can potentially post at buyers cost and risk but currently all out of packing materials so would need to source some more first.

 

£430 as is or £400 if I keep the flats and I'll put some rounds on (took them off the bass when I got it but no idea what they are).

And here’s a pic of it wearing a mint green pickguard (not included) which I rather liked:

Hi,   This is probably a daft question, but how true to life is the colour in the photo's.  Maybe it's my screen but it looks rather more "red" than I anticipated?   Very nice though.

I think the last two photos (of the neck pocket) are the most realistic colour representations. With the caveat that I’m colour blind so really not the best person to answer that!

 

I will try and take some better photos. I would go by what Google has to offer but it’s more like (taken from a previous Rich Tone sale, same model but not this exact bass):

That's a very accurate colour representation I would say (I own one)

Flats now moved to my new one and rounds back on. Red silks both ends no idea what they are but now £400 and will chuck in a basic unbranded gig bag if needed. Have packaging materials to post.

I have this bass and let me tell you….. it’s a lot of bang for buck. Incredible bass!!  

[Basscabman]

My go to P bass. Becoming more rare by the day. Great basses for the money IMO.
