Thump Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Spotted this online this afternoon, its a bit of an oddity. Never seen a P that looks like a single pickup Jazz before. The serial number comes back as a champion 30 amp?!? and thats on Fenders own lookup https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/fender-precision-active-fretless-electric-bass-guitar-circa-79-usa-hybrid/1385314042 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beedster Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 It’s not an original Fender but I quite like it 👍 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beedster Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Oh shot just saw the price, OK that’s laughable for a noname bitsa 🤔 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thump Posted September 17, 2023 Author Share Posted September 17, 2023 My initial thought was it was dodgy, especially when the serial number didn't check out. Crazy price though right enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overpriced though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vinorange Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 I see it has especially easy access to the dusty end of the neck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemmywinks Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 I like it. Thick board with what looks like a sub 9.5 radius makes me want to play it, just not for £800. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Up the road from me, the seller is a drummer with a permanent presence on Gumtree. IIRC @Happy Jack has depped with his band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Jack Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Yup, that's Howard the drummer from Red Herring. Looks like he's having some sort of fire sale ... drums, instruments, high-end watches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
