FS: Fender CIJ '51 Reissue Precision

Sign in to disble this ad
I really thought I would keep this beauty, but I've found something else and decided on 12/20/2011 to reopen this listing. For sale is my rare Fender '51 reissue, crafted in Japan, with a transparent blonde finish(maybe it's considered a Mary Kay finish - I don't know). Signs of plater wear are minor scuffs and swirls in the finish, a ding in the headstock and two small dents on the bottom edge which are pictured. Not a museum piece, but the marks aren't bad IMO and can't be seen unless you're up close. The body is slab, and the color is different than US models in that it is a subtle transparent cream color. Neck width at the nut is 1" 11/16ths, weight is about 9 lbs. Pickup and bridge covers, and hard case (worn, but clean inside and functional) are included. No trades please.

Asking $750 shipped and insured to the CONUS. PM me with any questions.

The ding in the headstock can be seen in the photo of the front, below the decal. Cosmetic only.

I've never seen a finish like this before. Do you know what year it is?

Did some quick looking for the year. Based on the s/n I think it is 2002 - 2004.

That finish is blonde....But it doesn't look yellow because it has not aged.

Wishing I had the money-bump!

With and without me on the digital bathroom scale, which is accurate to 1/2 lb., the bass weighs 9.0 lbs.

I may have a local deal in the works, but if you're interested in this bass, I'm open to reasonable offers.
