It's back for your viewing pleasure
This is a supremely cool one of a kind combo, perfect for that hard to buy for Precision player who has everything. The deets here are from the guy I got it from....
A 2000 '62 AVRI body in Fiesta Red nitro, married to a 1997 Fender Custom Shop '1956' neck with aged reverse long stem tuners and a radiused heel to fit the body. Pencilled in on the neck heel is 'P/J'. The marriage ceremony was performed by L.A. luthier David Enke, who's clients include John Paul Jones and Ian Anderson.
The neck has the old P chunkiness but with a 1 9/16" nut width, Jazz territory. Having never played a '56 P I have to assume this is period correct. It does remind me of a '51 RI I had, but faster. I've taken the gloss off the poly on the back of the neck with steel wool. I finally got this out of the shop where it had a level and polish and some small poly touch ups on the neck (see pix). It's strung with fresh LaBella flats and it packs a damn punch! I have the action on the high side but you'll have no problem setting it how you like it.
It's very clean EX+ condition as is the Fender HSC it comes with. I have a 5 string jones right now,(Sadowsky, Valenti) so any trade action is in that arena. Selling price now
$1150 shipped in the US.
