2014 Fender American Standard Dimension V 5 String HH - Ocean Blue Metallic
This is a mint condition Fender American Standard Dimension V in Ocean Blue Metallic that has been upgraded to correct the string spacing issues from Fender. (Shimmed the neck, added an Omega High Mass Adjustable Bridge) Added some adjust-ability to the monster pickups.....These are truly great pickups. Clean Clear and Transparent. I just found the original preamp lacking in some ability to tame the high mid's that these pickups put out while keeping the authoritative bass and treble. An Audere 4 Band Active Preamp was added. Battery is under the pick-guard.....I just didn't have the heart to route out a battery box in case someone wanted to take it back to original.
Seems to be a rather rare color, as I have only seen two of these. The bass and hard-shell case are as close to new as I can see (case doesn't even have any scuffing on it), I looked it over as I was taking pictures, and there is one very faint finishing scratch just near the neck pickup, but I was not able to get a picture of it....for full disclosure. Anyone that gets this, is going to be truly impressed with the sound and tonal options this bass offers, from a true MM HH Sound, to a true single coil J-Bass Sound from different coil switching.
No longer interested in trades, already purchased something else.
