Fender Precision 2022 Mexican - Significant Upgrades - *WITHDRAWN* £575 Wolverhampton / Walsall

[dutchbath]

Here is my Mexican Fender Precision that I have upgraded from stock (info below). I purchased this second hand locally to me but it has been barely used. It is a standard 2022 Mexican Player Precision as its base and the serial is available on the official lookup.

 

Firstly the bass has been given a professional set up and once over by one of the best in Staffordshire. The neck / truss rod fully adjusted and it now has a nice mid-low action that is great for fingers and pick. At the same time the pickups were upgraded to Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounders. These give it that significant thump that you know and love. Additionally, the stock wiring loom was swapped out for a Bloodstone Guitarworks bass loom which has significantly improved the tone. I have also added a vintage style tortoiseshell pickguard to complement the lovely polar white finish. Finally I added a brand new set of Fender 105 nickelwound strings.

 

As you can see from the pictures, the maple fretboard has a lovely flame to it and it is a standard C shape neck with 41.3mm nut. All hardware is in great condition as the photos show.

 

There is a slight ding on the lower part of the body that you can see in the pictures, this was in place when I purchased it and a very quick, but tidy, patch job has been done in white. It genuinely looks a lot worse in the pictures than in real life. There's also two very very light scratches on the rear in the buckle rash region, only a centimetre or so in length and barely noticeable unless you catch the light perfectly.

 

Weight on the bathroom scales is 8lb 6oz. No case supplied with this one.

 

This is the perfect rock / punk bass in waiting. I'm happy to supply more pics if needed or answer any questions. Can also DM you a recording of it being played.

 

I'm based just a few minutes from Junction 10 of the M6 (Walsall / Wolverhampton) and collection is preferred but I'm willing to travel a reasonable distance and maybe meet halfway. Happy for you to test it out on my practice amp at my place too. Not really looking to mail this as no case but DM me if you think you have a plan. Cheers.

@JJMotown I ordered it from a seller on Amazon, can't remember exactly which one but have used them before and been happy with their products. I can also supply the original white pickguard included in the sale for free.
