FS/FT: MIJ Squier by Fender Precision Bass (3TSB/RW; SQ serial number) **NEAR-MINT**

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey Now TB!

Up for grabs is an early 80s MIJ (SQ-series) Squier by Fender Precision Bass in NEAR-MINT condition!!

Light weight - only 8.2 lbs by my digital bathroom scale.

She’s all original as far as I can tell. I can only find a few tiny marks on this bass! (two on the bottom edge, one on the headstock, and light scratches on the neck plate);no other scratches, dings, chips, etc. Almost zero swirling! There appears to be no yellowing of pickguard or maple neck. This closet queen looks like she never saw the light of day -- amazing condition, especially for a 30 year old bass!!

I recently bought a sweet parts bass here that has an amazing SQ neck. After realizing that all the SQ Squier hype is completely warranted, I ran across this gem and could not pass it up. However, I need to pass this onto another TBer as I only have so much room for P-style basses. Plus I’m actually afraid to take this one out because I don’t want to mess it up. It’s that nice!! And I don’t have to worry about putting the first dings on my parts bass.

She plays and sounds as good as she looks too!

High res pics here.


I'll go $595 $575 shipped CONUS/insured/paypal $525 + actual shipping! (paypal preferred)

I'd prefer a sale, but would also consider trading towards a nice composite neck 5-er like a Modulus Q5, Zon Sonus 5, stc.

Preference given to email correspondence.

Thanks for looking!

Trades? I'd really prefer a straight sale, but feel free to run it by me. I might be interested in another small head or ??

Feel free to shoot me an email. Worst I can do is say no. Thanks.

Case? Gig bag?

She's a beauty. I'm may have to look at my budget and see if I can squeeze out the funds for this one.

She came to me double-boxed with no case or gig bag.

I only have 1 gig bag. It's a like-new MF deluxe bag (pretty nice for the $) that I bought new for $20; I'll throw it in for free.

I'm also be willing to ship with neck off if you prefer.

gig bag

Decided I'll include the bag.

Like to move this one. I don't think you can find a cleaner example of an SQ Squier!

Email me an offer.

I played one of these at Elderly's and the quality just blew away some of the MIAs they had hanging, the next week I went back in and it was sold.

Bump for a thumpin' deal.

^^Thanks. These are killer basses for sure. Damn near impossible to beat for the price!

Some pretty beat up ones have sold on here for not much less than I'm asking. IMO this is a real nice deal!
