Cool NBD (Finally!) American Special Fender Precision
After a shipping mishap by GC I was finally united with my new* American Special Precision Bass in Honeyburst!

I got mine at a "scratch & dent" price of $595, and due to the shipping mishap, I got a HSC for it for $50.

Still, for the price I paid, the brilliant maple neck, and the fact that it is a good vintage sounding MIA P bass, I'm happy as I'll get

You can see the one ding on the front towards the upper horn. From what I can tell the body is a three piece but the pieces match well.

The first scratch/dent is always tough, but every one after that is added mojo.

Sweet! I like those a lot. If only I could justify another bass...

Those are great basses. I liked mine better than my American standard and my deluxe.

Same here. They're gorgeous. I've been really tempted but I don't need another bass.
