Fender 51’ Precision Bass Japan - *SOLD* £700 St Ives,Cambridgeshire

[RikiB]

Fender 51 p bass

Real road wear. I’ve taken some pics of the wear. 
sounds great and non scratchy pots or electrics. I did change the Jack output to an  Allparts Electrosocket and the Jack to a switchcraft one. When I got it it was butchered with 2 screws holding the original one in,punk rock and would’ve left it but it wobbled and caused some noises so replaced it with a better one and is solid now.  I’ll include the original parts if you want.

it’s not a case queen l,this thing has been gigged. However the neck is straight,the back is surprisingly in good condition as not much buckle rash etc.

This bass has scratches and dings all over so buy knowing that. 
It’s a personal thing and something I vastly prefer over a shiny bass I’m scared to play and mark it.

Comes with a Fender hard case I’ve had for ages I got with a USA p bass. This is also worn and has some cracking underneath but does the job.

 

The bass weighs 3.945KG / 8.697 pounds and is the reason I got it as others I’ve tried have been wayyy to heavy.

 

any questions please ask,all original,all awesome.

 

Can pick up from St Ives in Cambridgeshire or I’ll post to UK mainland for £30 in a proper box etc.

Ok so if it’s collected from PE27 3FW and taken without the hard case I’ll take £620 which is a bargain for this.

Just to answer a few questions I’ve had one here for all to see

 

its a slab body 51 not contoured

 

The frets are in great condition and can send photos if needed 

 

The neck is chunkier than my other p basses but not as chunky as the Mike Dirnt bass I had.

 

Intonation is very close considering the design,close enough I haven’t bothered to change it.
