FS/FT: Fender Custom Shop '57 Journeyman Precision (all rosewood neck!) €2950 - *SOLD* £2930 Netherlands

Fender CS '57 Precision Bass 

 

Fender Limited Ed. journeyman ’57 precision from 2017, which features an all rosewood neck! I think the finish is called "wide fade chocolate sunburst".

 

It’s a wonderful instrument. Playability is very good with a low action, and the sound is one of the best I’ve heard from a P; very alive… deep and clear with a good roarr with the tone open, and warm and deep with definition when the tone is closed. And anything in between.

Weight is just 4kg with the covers mounted!

The bass will be sold with Fender rounds mounted.

The bass is all original, in very good condition (apart from factory relicing of course) and comes with certificate, ohsc and other case candy as pictured.

I really love the sound of this bass, but the neck is to big for me to be comfortable for a longer session of playing.

New price €2950
 

I prefer straight sale, but you can always try me with (partial) trades. I'm interested in bass and guitar stuff.

 

Per example: Modulus 34" quantum or earlier Flea, rickenbacker 4001, Music Man Stingray Pre-EB (not too heavy, natural or mocha preferred), usa EBMM sterling model...

Othwerwise a strat/jazzmaster or other offset,  Epiphone sj200 acoustic guitar, a small tube amp for guitar.

 

Maybe even a refinished 60s Fender jazz bass (<='66 dots and binding).

I've got more basses that I could add in a trade if needed.

That neck 👍

Yeah that neck! Seems a shame to play it with the strings facing the audience really, but I guess there’s no way round that!! 😛

Damn this is gorgeous

[SurroundedByManatees]

It's truly an exceptional instrument. If these big necks are for you, it can't get much better.

 

Btw it's fitted with ernie ball cobalt flats which are fantastic on a P (like good rounds, but a bit smoother and very even).

I love big chunky necks! I’m probably alone on this one, but those Skinny 38mm necks are too small. Maybe because I mostly play DB.
