wateroftyne Posted August 7, 2010 Posted August 7, 2010 [quote name='Dogame' post='917633' date='Aug 7 2010, 02:15 AM']I'm asking for £1,350 including shipping to the UK . It'll be packed into an original Fender box[/quote] Is it a pre-CBS Fender box?
Beedster Posted August 7, 2010 Posted August 7, 2010 A no-name 21 fret neck on a 70's Precision, will that intonate, or even fit, correctly?

If it had been a pre-CBS box from a '59 Jazz, when they switched to ebony necks, I would have been all over this. Anyway, have a bump!

Dogame Posted August 7, 2010 Author Posted August 7, 2010 (edited) Sorry, I'll reup them through another host.

It is indicated as a "project", so what's the problem? The box is from a brand new Fender MIM guitar but I know how ironic it is. It is just to give you an approximate idea of packing measurements.

Beedster Posted August 7, 2010 Posted August 7, 2010 Given the price of the parts you list above, and a very generous estimate for value of the body (say £500), you're asking over £500 for the neck. As at that price it's clearly an extremely rare vintage part, could you provide more details to help potential buyers make up their minds? Cheers Chris
Dogame Posted August 7, 2010 Author Posted August 7, 2010 Honestly, I've been told by PM that the price is high, especially as I have no other info on the neck. So I'm selling the parts separately. The neck will be £100. The body is worth around £650-700 (check Ebay: original non-refinished bodies with the original stamps are slighty above that price without shipping and custom taxes and they're hard to find, especially the ones from 1975 downwards).The "cracked poly" is harder to appreciate in natural bodies, apart from the grain which is very figured in this model, and it doesn't have as much poly as in later models that I've seen. The finish is original as it was offered by Fender from 1972 onwards. [url="http://www.vintageguitars.org.uk/fender72p21.php"]http://www.vintageguitars.org.uk/fender72p21.php[/url] The other parts are valued a 10% less than Thomann's value, as I bought them there new less than a month ago and with original packaging. All parts value = £170. Total price buying everything is £900. Shipping rate is negotiable. Thank you
Dogame Posted August 8, 2010 Author Posted August 8, 2010 [quote name='gareth' post='918469' date='Aug 8 2010, 01:58 AM']Would you take £899 to include shipping to uk?[/quote] I've sent you a PM.
Dogame Posted August 14, 2010 Author Posted August 14, 2010 Still available. Shipping rate is around £50 but I can pay half ot it in the price so it is £925 including shipping.
antti Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 (edited) I am 99,9% sure the neck is from Sunsmile P-bass. My friend got one with exactly the same finish and shape. Actually I am 100% sure for that. It is from this model: [url="http://www.ssmii.com/ArticleShow.asp?ArticleID=1095"]http://www.ssmii.com/ArticleShow.asp?ArticleID=1095[/url] First I saw this pic's I got a "flashback" that I have recently played with this same neck. Nowdays they use little edgier shape of head with 34" basses but just year or two ago they used this same shape with all P-basses necks. I can send some pics of that Sunsmile, if needed.

Fishman Posted August 28, 2010 Posted August 28, 2010 [quote name='antti' post='938808' date='Aug 28 2010, 02:53 PM']Well, just look at it and then decide....... [/quote] very funny, that made me laugh! either way, who am i to judge...
Dogame Posted September 1, 2010 Author Posted September 1, 2010 Mmm interesting info, If anyone's interested only in the body, I can sell it separately as I've said before. The prices are the following (without shipping included). The body sells for £700 The neck is £50 (even if we assume it's Chinese made, these basses probably retail for £150 so I can't go lower...) The rest of it for £150 (tuners, EMG, pickguard, everything else that you have in new condition Total price including shipping is £890 o.b.o.
