Gone For Sale: Fender USA 75th Anniversary US P Bass in Bourbon Burst - *SOLD* £1650

[Old Horse Murphy]

For sale is my stunning US 75th Anniversary P Bass with a one piece ash body and finished in a stunning Bourbon Burst. It has factory fitted gold hardware and comes with the limited edition silver case, all the certificates and accessories and the original mint and after market black pickguard. It's in immaculate condition. It weighs in at 4.2kg (9lbs 2-3oz). 
 

The neck is finished is a lovely natural satin lacquer in the back and gloss on the front (although not thick or sticky at all). 
 

It's a simply stunning bass but is getting little use. 
 

I'm looking for £1,550 delivered via courier fully insured of £1,500 picked up from near Monmouth and I'm happy to travel within an hour's drive to hand it over.
 

Not looking for trades thanks.

Thanks. I had looked it up myself, but thought I’d double check 😎

It is indeed (41.3mm)

Man, I really like the wood grain. Killer 😍 I think the black PG looks great too.

I am still looking for my "Motown" bass and this beauty ticks lots of boxes (esp. the 62 pickup). Fortunately (for my bank account ;- ), it does not have the rosewood FB that I am looking for, so I should be safe from making an offer. Well, let's see 😉

Thanks 😊It's actually wearing lightweight nickel rounds at the moment but up until a week or so ago it had TI flats on it for that extra P Bass thud

It's a bit of a red herring I'm afraid. Some pics have TI flats on them with red silks and the others with Ernie Ball Extra Slinky Nickels with no silks 😊
