Noisyjon Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 (edited) Hi All, *** NOW SOLD *** It's a 1995 made Fender USA Precision bass with original hard case and accessories. The mods to it are: Jazz Bass bridge pickup added. Wired with a Volume control for each pickup and no tone control. Routing, shielding and re-wiring done by The Gallery (receipt included), Jazz pickup is a Seymour Duncan STK-J2B Hot Stack for Jazz Bass, Precision pickup is a Seymour Duncan SPB-3 Quarter Pounder, Black Badass 3 bridge added (original included), Black/White/Black Pickgaurd put on. There are a few dings on it - A few on the headstock end and one on the back cut away. See the pictures of this below. There's also some signs of play wear but nothing bad. The only negative point I want to make about it is this - The back of the neck has laquer cracking on it along the playing area. Martin at The Gallery said it's only the laquer that's cracked and not the wood. It is fine to play and has got no worse since I've owned it (2006). It sounds just great and is a joy to play with the action set medium low. Edited July 7, 2010 by jonthebass
SteveF72 Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 Have got a vintage precision modded with extra jazz pick up, sounds superb so this should be a belter, respect....
Clarky Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 I have seen this in the flesh so to speak and it's one sexy stealth bass. Jon is a top bloke too so somebody will be getting a seriously cool rock machine here
Guest BassKS Posted June 30, 2010 Posted June 30, 2010 My Jaw dropped. Tom&Jerry Style. Thats pretty awesome. Best of luck with it squire.
Teddy_Hitch Posted June 30, 2010 Posted June 30, 2010 If I didn't already have a P I would have snapped this up! Have a bump on me !

I would put cream Dimarzios and how would it play...

Guest BassKS Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 Are there replacements that slot right in? with no extra drilling

Those tuners are rock solid so wasn't fussed!
