2006 non-export MIJ CAR '57 P

Candy apple red '57 P. Nut is 42mm, maple board, alder body. Upgrades are: Basslines spb-2 P pup, WD (I think) aftermarket white pearloid pg, bad ass II bridge, Schaller straplocks, fully shielded control cavaity..quite unnecessary as the problem was my house's power. This is a non-export model purchased directly from Japan. Fit and finish are TOP notch....neck pocket's perfect. I happen to think it's one of the nicest P's around, and not just 'cause I own it.











Finish on this one's pretty well perfect. Flame on the fingerboard's pretty nice, if that matters .

No case on this one, but I may be able to offer a gig bag...$650. Personally, I think this is an $800 bass, but as I don't have that much into it, I'm not going to try to get that much. I will try to work w/purchaser on shipping (will ship international with cleared payment received up front). Payment methods do not include paypal...I'm selling this because my BS is #1, and I only need 1 backup.

I know times are hard, and folks are selling stuff for less than it's worth. I'm not really in that position, so I'll keep it rather than give it away. Having said that, I'd like cash out of her, but would consider partial trades, too. (Tube pres...tube I can insert into fx loop on my current pre...micro POG....a shallow rack that I can put a 2 space power amp into {if it's an SKB, it'll have to be 3U, as they have that funky rear cutout}...maybe a rack tuner...maybe a single space 1000 watt+ amp...pro cabling w/RA jacks only for pedal board use...no G. L's {can be bulk}...maybe a 400-500watt 8 ohm 2X10 cab {no shite on anything, please}..). Checks, money orders...any payment where I don't have to pay to receive the money.

Thanks for looking.

These non-export Fenders are generally great basses, folks.

Free bump.

that's what one would think, if one didn't read the FAQ:

"Links to auctions will only be allowed if posted as a reply to an existing (at least one week old) thread originally advertising the direct sale of the same item."

I only own one bass in sunburst and I'm looking for a P-bass to match. I already have too many CAR basses.

I hear ya man. I felt the same way about my Lakland 55-01. I thought I was givin' it away at $535 shipped when others was sellin' for $550, $575, and $600. And 44-01's bein' listed at $550.

I had to turn to ebay to sale mine. It sold for a higher price than what I was askin' here. But after the ebay fee, it came out to pretty much the same.

Good luck gettin' rid of this nice bass...
Steve

Are the original parts included? There doesn't seem to be much making it a 57 reissue minus the logo.
