Fender Precision 50's Classic Series £750 £750 Retford

[Woody1957]

Regrettably up for sale again after withdrawing it a few months ago, this fine, much sought after, discontinued instrument.

 

This is a top quality bass, both in build quality and tone, it sounds phenomenal, just how a P bass should sound. I've had loads of compliments playing this instrument.

 

I've used flats on this bass too and its the perfect James Jamerson/Duck Dunn sound nailed right there.

 

Excellent condition apart from a tiny ding at the back of the strap button at the bottom of the bass. Can barely be seen up close.

 

I have significantly upgraded the bass with the following - Norstrand NP4a pickups/CTS pots/Switchcraft jack/WD Black 3 ply scratch plate/tug bar.

 

Set up by the man himself...Mr Jon Shuker and is very easy to play all the way up the fretboard.

 

Ernie Ball Super Slinky 45/60/80/100 strings fitted.

 

Sorry I don't have the original parts as I really didn't intend selling this bass.

 

Comes with the original fender gig bag in excellent condition.

 

Not interested in trades, sale only.

 

Absolutely any trial welcome. Tea/Coffee/biscuits and corny jokes are free!

 

I really don't want to courier this bass due to no packaging/bad experience, so pick up preferred but would drive to meet up with petrol cost.

 

Thanks for looking.

In my opinion, the Classic 50's are one of the best Precisions made. Hopefully this will sell quickly!

Love these basses!

I have a Fiesta Red Classic 50's P bass, and it's my favourite ever Precision. Absolute killer sound, and lovely to play.
This sunburst model looks awesome too. GLWTS
