IanA Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 (edited) Have been hankering after another Precision for a while now so I went to Guitar Guitar in Birmingham a few weeks ago. Tried a few different basses and then tried this one out. Fit and finish is impeccable with the best neck joint that I have seen on a Fender. It weighs in at 3.7kg and resonates like crazy as you play. Was originally looking for Oly White/Rosewood but am absolutely smitten with the black maple. The VMOD ii pickup is really quite nice much to my surprise, it will probably get replaced with a Nord or a Fralin at some point but no hurry on that!

snorkie635 Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 Shiny, new and only 'delivery notes' on the clock. Exciting times. Enjoy, and may God speed all who/you play on her. 🤗 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem to have got this dialled at the moment. My AV II is so snug it needs the neck bolts tightening to snug it into the pocket, but only to normal tightness. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soulstar89 Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 Nice purchase. I purchased a rosewood neck version. You are right the neck is really comfortable. I’ve learn’t that i slightly prefer tha 70,s B profile neck. I wouldn’t complain about this neck though is really nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmc79 Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Really nice. I think that’s the lightest weight USA P bass I’ve heard of for a while. Enjoy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
