Clarky Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) Yep, its Clarky selling a recently-acquired white P bass again ... This time its surplus to requirements as I have finally managed to strike an agreement to re-acquire my original white P bass, "Sid". Sid has sentimental value to me (I recorded our album with it and have done loads of gigs with it) and is quite beat up, so I don't give a hoot about dinging it. This bass on the other hand is a minter and way too shiny and new-looking to be a beater bass. Specs: a 70 reissue CIJ Fender Precision (has the nice TV logo headstock), originally owned by BC'er Killstarz. The bass has an added Fender 62RI tort scratchplate and a Seymour Duncan SPB-1 pickup (these are designed to sound like a vintage P pickup). It has holes (neatly) drilled for chrome ashtray covers although please note that I do not have the covers. Fitted with brand new D'Addario Chrome flats in the last couple of weeks. Will come in a Warwick padded rockbag. Not trying to make a profit so looking for what I paid, which is £420 posted. Would also do it for £400 collected/meet-up There are some good pics on Killstarz' FS ad from late 2009 (hope thats OK KS?): [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=66806&hl=CIJ"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=66806&hl=CIJ[/url] The bass remains in the excellent condition you can see in these photos.

karlfer Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Funny how every bass I really lust after goes when I am out pretending to work. This went in about an hour last time. By the way is this the reissue with the slightly slimmer neck (40mm rather tham 42 ?) I know it's unlikely but if it doesn't go ahead please give me a shout Clarky. Pretty please. Cheers, Karl.

How's the 72 going Clarky?[/quote] Hey Chris, absolutely love the 72 P to pieces! Played it at band practice last night through my new MXR M80 pedal with a little bit of valve-type overdrive and the band mates were super-impressed. I've put back heavier gauge LaBella flats on it (like you had) and its a dream to play. BTW, to complete the circle I think Lenny is now selling your old silver Stingray in part to pay for my oly white P bass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
