AndyTravis Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 Hi Folks. My Main Precision, is a Mexican Classic Series 50's, The back up is a 1983 Japanes Squier P/J. These are the reason i'm selling a lot of my gear. Any Squier Experts? Can you confirm that the bridge pickup is non-original? Enjoy Trav Quote
AndyTravis Posted October 11, 2009 Author Posted October 11, 2009 As a point, i noticed the Knob closest to the Neck (Neck Volume) is not the same as the other two, leading me to assume the Bridge Unit is not an original fitting. Still... Enjoy Quote
bh2 Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 Great Andy... love the Classic P... great colour combo and vintage vibe. Quote
AndyTravis Posted October 12, 2009 Author Posted October 12, 2009 a gift from my other half! i fitted the covers, and the Squier 83 is wearing a cover as i can't get used to playing without it. the blonde is great, i keep on thinking i should get the two colour burst version.... Quote

AndyTravis Posted October 13, 2009 Author Posted October 13, 2009 The prefix is 'Sq' dating it to 1983, i know they did modern P/J basses at that time, but can't see any info online about the 70's style P-basses having a P/J option. (JV being the 50's/60's style, SQ being 70's styled) Quote
The Shrek Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 (edited) Hey Andy didn't realise you were a precision freak I built this one for a fun project and it actually works, stays in tune really well and sounds great too! Bass parts resources supplied all the bits and I managed to do everything from wiring to spraying etc. Its great fun and I think everybody should have a go. Just before all you experts have a go at my bass, this was for fun and a bit of experience. It may be crap to you but I am proud of it!
