Thinking about selling the body of this bass:

Fender Precision Bass with Mods

I'll have to take my own pics later - heading out the door right now. Looks more cream colored/less white in person. Sticker is gone.

Neck is long gone, sorry.

$235 shipped, lower 48.

E-mail is the best way to reach me.

Sweet P body! If I hadn't just finished assembling another P today, I'd probably grab this. Good luck!

Woah, two Iowegian replies in a row, nice!

One thing to note:

I've had a few people ask about buying just the body, which I would consider, depending on the price.
However - the bridge won't come off. I tried taking it off, removed the bolts, and it's stuck fast. I think it's probably glued on. I'm sure it could be pried off but I don't want to attempt it and risk ruining the finish. Great bridge, no real reason to change it but everyone has different preferences.

I like the white/tort combo. Iowa bump.

Bummer about the bridge. I was ready to take this off your hands.

Same here not a BA fan myself. Good luck for the rest though !

Yeah I'm not quite sure what the deal is with it. Previous owner didn't know either. My original plan was to have Wilkins re-finish it, and he said he'd get the BA off of it. Might damage the finish a bit but no matter for a refin. I'm sure with the right tools it may pop off, maybe even cleanly without blemishing the finish underneath but I didn't want to risk it.

Ah well, another bump for someone who might it with the BA. Open to offers (cash only, no trades)

I will not be able to ship until January 3. I am leaving town tonight (driving across Iowa coincidentally

) en route to Wisconsin.

Maybe when I get back from vacation I'll work on prying the bridge off-probably easier than I think but I'm always super-careful with my gear because my giant clumsy man-hands tend to break things

Post Christmas bump. Will not be able to ship until January 3. But I will still be checking TB if you want to make an offer and can wait for shipping.

Sold.
