NBD:2007 Highway One Precision

I just bought 2007 Hwy One P Bass on Craigslist for $350!
Original owner bought it to learn bass but lost interest. The action was really high and it was covered with lots of dust here and there. But frets were almost new and neck felt good.
After setup, I like it more than my Deluxe precision that I paid over $1500 brand new a year ago :-(
I hope to keep this one long time and make it my own Roadworn bass!!!

That was a deal, indeed. I use my highway for every third gig or so. Lightweight and punchy.

Yes! It is very light, little over 8lb. If I really like it then I might change tuners to lighter ones.
Now only if it were maple neck....

Great score on a great bass. Love the black satin too.

I put an old set of Dean Markley flats on mine, great match up.
