Original quote from Bumperbass: I just picked this one up. I neglected to take a full-sized shot of her, because I only was curious about the color. I've only seen a few. One other on here looks like it, and the poster (forgot name) says it's Midnight Blue. Sometimes it looks like it has a LOT of purple in it. It's a 2000 MIM. Got it dirt cheap. Not a big deal, but I'd like to know the official color, in case I'd like to change the pickguard while it's on the bench getting a good cleaning and tune-up, which will include shielding and a Original '62 pickup.
Thanks!

| Your bass is "Midnight Blue". 
Looks purple in some light, deep blue to bright blue in other lights. Gorgeous color!

The Rules,
1. I shall assign numbers.
2. It must be a genuine Fender Bass ( no parts Bass and no Frankenbass ).
3. It must sport a genuine Fender Logo on the head stock ( sorry no Squier's ).
4. It must have a split singlecoil pickup or vintage p-bass singlecoil.
5. Can have more than one pickup, but must have a split singlecoil or vintage p-bass singlecoil ( Standard, American Standard, American Deluxe, Highway One, American Vintage etc... ).
6. They can be MIA, MIM, MIJ etc... as long as it was produced under license for Fender.
7. Vintage and Modern are welcome.
8. Pictures are encouraged.
9. Please no rude comments on the basses of others.
10. No PMs please. it’s only to make it fair when assigning numbers.
11. Have fun.
The guide lines.
- I saw a lot of Clubs on the Forum such as " The Precision Decision ", " The Official Fender MIJ/CIJ ", " The Squier ", etc... but I did not see “ The Official Fender Precision Bass Club “, so I thought it would be a good idea to put one together.
- The Club is meant to be a tribute to Leo Fender’s Precision Bass, and the Basses presented stay with in the rules, the guide lines / spirit of the club, meaning the Basses being genuine Fender’s, sporting a genuine Fender Logo on the head stock.
- I just don’t know when a Fender stops being a genuine Fender and becomes a parts Bass, I’m thinking upgrades with Fenders parts such as the pick guard, the bridge, things like Fender's Custom shop stuff, not to mention other parts produced under license for Fender or used by Fender such as the Badass Bridge.
- I don’t want to be a fanatic, nor do I want to split hairs and police this Thread with “ Is the Bass you present a Genuine Fender Bass “, and “ what upgrade is valid and witch one is not “.
That being said.
- I will leave it up to each individual to determine if the Bass they are presenting, falls under the rules and guide lines of this Thread of being a genuine Fender Bass.
This is meant to be a fun Thread, it's intended to be “ The Official Fender Precision Bass Club “ and for " genuine Fender Basses ", I hope that every one who will be participating, will keep it in the scope of things.

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: Kaiserslautern, Germany | | I already posted my black/maple am std precision, but just had to post that I installed the Fender Original pickup (the one they put in AVs and many Custom Shops) and it's gone from great to amazing! Love this bass! It's funny, me being a jazz bass guy, that I've gone through so many basses trying to find the One that would stick around for years and I end up with a PBass that I feel may have stolen the slot.  Now to continue on my search for the right JBass. |

MIJ Classic Series '70s P bass. Polite thunder. Very well mannered, full of tone and easy on the eyes. Vintage frets on J neck with 1.5" nut. She is teaching me how to play. This is love.
Already have a number, thanks.
