Im needing to move some of my guitars due to GAS and other expensive bills.

This started out as a 2009 Squier Classic Vibe 50's P in Lake Placid Blue. Which the only thing left that this stock is the control plate and bridge. Here's the details:

- Stripped and sprayed the body with off-brand Shell Pink aerosol rattle can. To be honest the paint job is not the best. I tried some tinted clear coat and the back and never finished the front. I tried to show some of the color tint on the back of body (photo below).

- There are dents/scratches and a chip of wood from the body at the neck pocket.

- The neck pocket was shaved and replaced with a Squier Mike Dirnt Rosewood neck. I sanded the logo and replaced with a 50's style P bass logo.

- Pickgaurd replaced by a Tort 4ply from Jeannie's Pickgaurd. Original One Ply white PG is included.

- Seymore Duncan Quarter Pound Pickup and replace capacitor with .033 Sprague Orange Drop.

PM for more info. I'll post more pictures this weekend. I've got more money and time in this project compared to my asking price. No low ballers please.

$275 shipped (white guard only w/ gig bag) CONUS
