jon_kemo Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 (edited) Continuing a bit of a clearout of the basses that don't get enough use anymore, here for sale is a Fender Mexican Precision. I believe the bass to be an '06 model and I have upgraded the stock pickup with a Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounder and have changed the stock white scratchplate to a Mirrored one. It's a great example of a Mexican Fender but just isn't getting a look in anymore. I would say the condition is good although as shown in the pictures there is some buckle rash on the back and there are also a couple of other minor imperfections that were difficult to photograph. Am looking for [b]£220[/b] for the bass with a Fender gig bag and the original scratchplate and pickup. This will be collection only ideally, although I am willing to drive for a meet up within reason. I may also consider trades but would much prefer a cash sale. Cheers, Jon Edited September 18, 2009 by jon_kemo
richardrickenbacker Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 Decent looking bass and they are good medium quality basses but I think it's a touch too pricey. A mint condition MIM Jazz went not too long for only 170 quid leaving a load of higher priced ones unsold.... still!!!! I wouldn't expect to break 200 for this one. Might go for it myself at that sort of price. But you never know.
2x18 Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 I reckon thats a good price considering the upgrades! But then again these are difficult Times!!! Will.
richardrickenbacker Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 Exactly!! Plus everyone loves buckle rash, that always bumps up the price!
Deep Thought Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 I have one of these with a Wizard Thumper in (which in my experience is nowhere near as loud as the SD QP in my MIA Precision). I paid £265 for it about a year ago, if that helps. Makes a cracking backup bass, in fact it's the one I play the most.
jon_kemo Posted September 5, 2009 Author Posted September 5, 2009 Have had some interest in this altough this is a bump with a price drop to £220
charic Posted September 5, 2009 Posted September 5, 2009 Ive got a similar setup on my MIM, If this is the kind of money I get off it after over £100's worth of upgrades I'd just keep it. Or go for trade honestly. Low price IMO but others will disagree, if i had the money I would have this as a backup for my backup. Good luck with the sale, may the gas be with you
