****SOLD **** and heading to L.A. in the morning!! Thanks Bryan!!
** UP FOR TRADE ** or $500 cashola
Bro's and Sis's.....here is a bass that I had stored away in case with a stack of others for a few years and had actually forgotten I had.
I "believe" that its a Japan lawsuit bass, I'd guess at mid-late 70's. It has a Precision plus a Musicman pickup in it...ALL STOCK, UNMODIFIED AND ORIGINAL!! Has volume. blend, bass, treble controls (passive). It honestly sounds unreal!! With just the P pup on...it nails a Precision. With both pups on...it is at least on a par with any Stingray I've played with huge bottom and silky highs. Pots are smooth and quiet and work as designed.
The neck is also original to the bass except for my signature "FunkMaster Custom Bass" waterslide that I have on lots of my basses, and a string retainer bar. Its very straight and has no wear on the board, and the frets look like new and are clean and shiney. It is a slim neck,...not a log. 1.5" nut and a pleasure to play. Has nice cast tuners that are smooth and clean. Truss rod is smooth, and located in the heel. Its been setting here unplayed for quite a while, so just did a quick set up on it, and it came in beautifully with ultra low action. While I had the strings off, I installed a new set of vintage ivory pearl VID's. I put a brand new set of 45-100's on it too. The original pickguard is still nice and clean, and it has the original heavy bridge too.
Its a solid 9/10 condition, with just a couple very small neatly done touch ups. SUPERB COLOR!!
This one is far superior to any MIM Fender, and at least on a par with MIJ's and pretty darn close to MIA's. Very nice build quality.
Right now...looking for interesting trade offers!! (via PM please)
