FS/FT Fender Precision Squier Series MIM mid 80s

[pablop]

This is a 1994 not mid80's, it won't let me change the header.

I recently aquired a MIM Fender Precision Squier Series on a local trade.
It's a classy butterscotch blonde with rosewood fingerboard.
It might have been Ivory and aged to butterscotch, it has a nice worn look, no abuse, no dents.
I did not know much about the MIM Fender Squier Series so I researched it a bit and I found this:

HELP! Fender MIM Jazz Bass "Squier Series"

There is a rumour of them being assembled from overstock MIA parts, I have no way to confirm that.

It is a MIM FENDER, someone decided to use the highly confusing SQUIER SERIES name for the series but they are not Squier brand,....I know I am confused enough about it myself....read the link it will explain better about the details.

The bass is very decent but I have a 77 MIA P-Bass that holds the P-Bass throne at home...

It is being setup and will take pictures of it tonight.

Comes with a no name gig bag with decent padding, not the cheapos...

It is quite light, 8 pounds my guess, typical PBass setup.

Selling price $325 Shipped lower 48.
I would entertain trades for japanese hollowbody basses, or a Westbury track VI, i kinda miss the track II I used to have,.....nice oddball.
I could add some cash for Guild B-302.

Pictures coming up tonight, it is in real decent shape, I would say 8.5.

1 5/8 at the nut, licensed Schaller machines, single ply pickguard, strat style knobs. 100% original.
The neck is slim and fast.

Swap for a black Squier P--p/j? I like butterscotch.

[pablop]

Not interested in squier pj, have two pjs already.

[pablop]

Its the misterious FENDER black label as you can see

[RCCollins]

where are you located? is pickup possible?

[pablop]

Im in miami, local pickup is encouraged!
Local selling price is $300 with a beatup ibanez hard case.

[Figjam]

Isnt MN4 indicative of 1994? And wasnt there no mexican factory until 1991 or 1992?

[TC2112]

Yes - The MIM black labels are from the mid 90's. I've had a couple of these and they are really good basses for the prices they sell at. Good luck

[pablop]

Sorry for the mistake on the date. Correcting it, thanks for pointing that out!

[pablop]

The post will not let me change the title. This bass is a mid 90s as it was pointed out.
Sorry for the typo

[pablop]

Sunday bump

[pablop]

Just weighed it. 8lbs according to my bathroom scale

[pablop]

Played it last night and it rocks, it does the P-bass thing to the fullest.
Prior to playing it I did a light setup and this bass intonates perfectly, straight neck, setup medium low action as I like it.
Definitely room to go lower if you'd like.
It is a slim neck, feels like a JB profile with the P-Bass nut width which I prefer, reminds me of my Geddy Lee although I have not A-Bd them...sold the GL long time ago...
I have new found respect for MIM Fenders, although the rumor of these being assembled from MIA parts might be true judging by how it feels.
Looking for a new home, meantime it will be my workplace bass.

[Ploonter]

Nice!

[pablop]

listening to offers, it seems like I ended up with only P-style basses in my arsenal....I always thought of myself as a Jazz bass kinda guy....gotta revisit that thought...
