For sale is a beautiful Atkinson Precision Bass.
About 8 pounds, light relic. Very slim and fast Geddy-like neck. Nitro finish. US Hipshot Ultralight tuners. Seymour Duncan SPB-1 pickup. Electrosocket jack.
Sounds great, lightweight.
I am sorry to be selling this bass, but I need the money right now. Someone here will love it.
$620 shipped in a nice gig bag.

I don't see this staying around long!

btw, here's my P-bass sporting a similar look: 
yours looks better, if only b/c of the lack of screw holes.

Not to toot my own horn, but this is a fantastic bass. Super light, great tone, looks sweet. Radius is vintage 7.25". Frets are vintage. Ebony fretboard. Alder body. Very thin nitro finish.
It was painful letting this one go. If I didn't have a basement full of basses right now, I would buy it back myself!
